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.

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

    Spud player though

    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

    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?

    Depends what time of the day it was.

    yes u are right

    Cos youd say the exact same thing

  • Quote

    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.

    Not all of them.. No.

    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.

  • Quote

    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.

  • Quote

    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.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
