    Little champion if true. Hopefully a 4 year extension for Jones is next on the cards. He should be our highest paid player.

    Ok I really don't get this. He is a new draftee on an initial two year contract. He has shown a lot of promise over his first pre season and in the first five rings of the season he has looked like he has potential.

    Why the need to give him a 4 year deal?

    What benefit is there for Melbourne? Is he threatening to leave? Do other clubs want to take him?

    I appreciate the show of faith on our behalf but I'm not sure why it is needed.

    Stability, commitment, hope - simple really. Well done JKH

    Seems the new thing done. Sign the new draftees up on longer deals after they play a few good games. Personally I'm not too fussed, but think it would be better and wait til years end then do it.

    Given the post about us merging from 'household demon' i would be very wary of believing this info. Smacks of trolling to me.

    Don't believe it. I'd be happy if it happened for I think Jay will be a good player for us, however it makes no sense.

    Just incoherent trolling again.

    Incredibly obvious that he will be extended at some stage considering his performances, so this is a laughably transparent attempt to gain some credibility for your trolling purposes.

    See, I can do the same:

    Dom Tyson to have contract extended in near future, after impressing the club.

    Christian Salem likely to be given his first game soon after my inside sources tell me Roos was very impressed with Salem's VFL match.

    Ad nauseum...

    Where's JKH from? I vaguely recall he played in a Victorian TAC side, but where is his home? In other words, is there a "go home" factor that needs to be nullified by a longer contract?

    Oakleigh?

    I wouldn't be worried.

    Agreed

    This post is from the same bloke who posted and last night confirmed that Melbourne are relocating to Tasmania...

    Don't know much about the families background and I'm very sorry if I'm wrong but I think his fathers passed away and his immediate family have been in Victoria for years. He played TAC for Oakleigh and went to Trinity College. Don't think there's any go home risk

    Maybe it's just a 3 year deal but with different terms for 2015 than his original 2 year deal. I think if you do that you don't have to stick to the initial draft contract. I think draftees get about 50k but like 5k or more per match payment which if he plays every match obviously adds on another 100k to the deal. Possibly renegotiating the contract to give him guaranteed money for 2015 and 2016 (or even 2017) can result in paying the same amount of money as well as having him signed up. Plus you can then front load the contract for salary cap space in the future.

    There's obvious benefit for getting those who you have a lot of confidence about locked in to contracts so you can start getting an idea of where you have room to move.

    Are we allowed to do this?

    Then Chip?

    I wonder if the 'chat' to watts, was more than being dropped to Casey, if contracts are being organised atmo.

    Well whatever the truth to this is his price went up this afternoon

    After only a couple of games he is already in the group of only four or five players in the team that I feel that we will win the ball when it goes into his area

    He isn't the quickest over 20m but I doubt if there is a player in the league who has a faster first three steps

  • Quote

    Man he has fast clean hands. Just body the ball and zoom and he's straight out of traffic. Lovely to watch. He'll be an ok crumbing forward but this kids a midfielder just waiting to build up his tank and strength.

    Kid is a great talent. His ability to take the ball at speed is already elite.

    Class midfielder developing nicely.

    He's like a pinball in that he bounces off nearly everyone when he gets the ball/tackled.

    Love it

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

      It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
