I think we are getting the cart before the horse here.

Lets see how 2015 pans out before we worry about trading him off to Freo.

I hope he get well and plays for the dees for the next ten years

 

So Frawley is likely to, hogan to and who knows with Macca and Dunn.

On the other side we had a player who WANTED to play for us even though we were a basket case at the time and we didn't take him. He now has extended his contract with Port.

Brilliant.

The main positive now is that we have the right people stearin the ship, thank god.

Dom Tyson was signed with the Giants until the end of next year. Contacts don't mean much in modern football if a club needs something they don't have.


Because its totally irrelevant?

I sum up speculative contracts by asking myself what I would do?

In Hogan's case, I'd stay with Viney and good core group of talented lads - all around the same age.

There would be more pressure on Hogan in Freo.

At Melbourne, he is just one of many expected to do great things - so they all share that load.

and he just might be smart enough to realize it
 

Unless I'm mistaken, which I'm not, the kid hasn't played a game yet. And people are talking trade....staggering.

Obviously I'm biased but Hogan's smart enough to see the upswing of being part of the core youth at the Dees. It might take another couple of years but I can firmly see the bright future now. Ross Lyon takes over clubs, teaches them his exhausting stranglehold of a game plan, then leaves once the club passes their premiership window and moves on to the next project. Look at where St Kilda are now, that'll be Fremantle's aged list in a few years. I think we're already seeing the fall, far earlier than predicted.

What Roos is trying to do is not only get us competitive, but assemble a core youth that will dominate in 3 to 4 years. Ross Lyon has a completely opposite approach with recruitment, trying to get aged players to push his team straight up the ladder as fast as possible, and not bothering with youth development.

Nah, i'm really glad we went the Toump not Wines. Wines is just a Viney wannbee - why get an imiation when you have the real deal? Wines would be surplus to requirements as you only need one Viney. Good call on that selection as the Toump will be a gun and Wines has peaked and found his level.

you are beyond help my friend, wine just buys you some time til' the end.

Thanks Song! That is very re assuring, if wine buys you time, then I should live to be about 143!

Mate I really hope u r right.

Time will tell.

Don't c how potentially losing Frawley, hogan, Macca and Dunn is irrelevant sassy.


Anything to do with wines is irrelevant to us.

I have been known to consume many the varietal

Wines is good

Depends on your opinion and that's what Demonland is about expressing your opinions even when others don't agree.

We agree to disagree.

Does wines play for mfc ? Is there an immediate prospect of wines playing for mfc? I'd say there Is strong grounds for my saying its irrelevant, be my guest to provide an example of why its not just whinging about a past decision?

Tyrrells say hello


Frawley, Dunn, McDonald, and Hogan are still Demons last I checked.

If they all stayed on the back of this promising return to relevance - great.

If they all left during the next two years:

Frawley will bring a top 5 pick.

Dunn will bring a top 40 pick.

McDonald a suitable trade.

Hogan a suitable trade.

The Demons will live on.

But remember they are all still demons...

It's not so much about disagreeing, but continually going on about it in every single thread (I don't mean just you, but all up) where trades/recruiting is even half mentioned.

We all understand there is a lot who think we should have taken wines, that was two years ago and has nothing to do with Hogan possibly going back to WA.

The funniest thing is alot had the exact opposite opinion leading up to the draft, I am still in the Jimmy toumpas camp I think he can be an asset for us.

Never say never in wines playing for the MFC especially with Roos as our coach. Contracts can be broken.

He would be a big draw card.

As for an example didn't collywobbles trade shaw even though he was contracted??

Let's leave it at that.

Hogan would be a drawcard....funny really

  • FEATURE: 1925

    A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

  • NON-MFC: Round 08

    Round 08 of the 2025 AFL Season kicks off on Thursday with a must-win game for the Bombers to stay in touch with the top eight, while the struggling Roos seek a morale-boosting upset. Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • PREGAME: West Coast

    The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.
