sadly, nic nat is off the menu. $4m over 5 years.

$800k a year.

Hopefully this doesn't get into Chip's ear.

If NN is worth 800k/year, then Chip is worth at least 1.6m/year. And that's being modest.

$800k a year. his asa's and third party agreements - both of which he'll make back for the club in spaces due to his marketability, but which means they can't pay to others - will mean it easily tops $1m a season.

I think you misspeled happily.

He is the most overrated dudd next to Matt Kreuzer, gets 5 hitouts and a almost goal of the year and he's the best thing since Wayne Carey.

Not only Chip, what about Gawny check out his stats compared to NicNats, Gawn must be worth $1.5mill per season.

Gawn gets more kicks, more handballs, more hit outs, more goal assists and over 3 times as many contested marks!

So is Gawn that good or is NicNat overrated?

Wow, NicNat and Scully chewing up millions of dollars, this league has far too much money to throw around.

I'd give 'em 300k each if I was feeling generous and I had to choose between them and Damien Gaspar and Aaron Fiora.

I think it's to every other clubs benefit they have paid way overs on his ability. Yes he is good for merchandise sales but Freo are fast cathcing up and a few seasons in a row as WA'S top side will not help Meth Coast

NicNat is worth 800k for the Eagles based on marketing alone

Spud player though

Or if he was in a Melbourne jumper I'm sure you'd say something along the lines of:

'Barely had a pre-season, is clearly injured but is an absolute superstar. And lols at Jack Watts and anyone who'd even dare compare him to NicNat.'

Am I right, am I right?

yes u are right

Cos youd say the exact same thing

I don't get it, why?

Because at 12:00 he'd say exactly what you said.

At 12:05 he'd say the exact opposite.

Yeah, coz Dees fans don't eat their own do they?

And DA was pointing out that h_h has a tendency, no, a penchant for saying something definitively and then walking away from what he just said at the flick of the electro-therapists switch.

no, not all. but a few of us support some, when necessary; but also want to bite other players on the backside, to get them off it & moving, & doing something. DO

Not sure it has been discussed but what are people's thoughts on Tom Rockliff from Brisbane ? And what do you think it would take to get him to Melbourne ?

I think he is a great player and would add another good solid young midfielder to our list but would not be as costly as other more large profile players.

Posted

We had a red hot go at Rockliff last year, and couldn't get any movement with pick 2 on the table. We should have picked him in the PSD after he trained with us, because I don't think we're much chance now.

gibbs signing for four or five years at the blues.

impact upon us is that the salary ear-marked for gibbs by the crows will be flashed around a bit. they made murmurings about chasing chip previously, but really i think the focus should be on dangerfield and sloane.

What about Toump and a first rounder for Rockliff ? Unlikely that they would go for it I guess

It's got nothing to do with stats. Meth coast supporters love him over here. I ask them why and in all honesty they can't answer specifically. It's all because of his look and the money he brings in.

That is the greatest understatement in Demonland history

lol at anyone who says differently

p.s. Watts is a culture killer and all his teammates must hate him. He is also the best set shot in the league and our most important re-signing.

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
