The GW$ Debacle...



Recommended Posts

Some may say it is an early call. But i am really angry that this farce was given the all clear whilst Victorian Clubs are on life support due to the private ownership of Docklands Stadium.

GW$ will have an extra $mill in their salary cap going forward. At who's expense??

The whole GW$ thing can only be about tax relief and putting even more dollars in Ruperts endless pockets....

Does anyone think having GW$ in the comp is a good idea?

I can't see it. They could really implode this year.

With GWS' defense, probably at our expense again if you get what I mean

GC will be the only one of these two expansion clubs that show any success, if you ask me.

The ace up their sleeve is their location. Any sane player wanting to choose between the two would prefer to go to GC. GWS will have massive player retention problems, they're showing absolutely no sign of cohesive improvement year after year.

Apart from a smattering of Richmond supporters there's barely a man and his dog there. No one is interested in GWS.

Love the fact the commentators have a hard on over richmonds attacking style. Yeah they tried that last week too. Who won last week?

We lost to them because we hadn't found ourselves as a side yet.

We'd beat them by 100+ easy now.

At least from Scully's perspective he'll have enough cash to cover that pathetic "wrestle." (Are players still fined for wrestling?)

Tiges go from 6.18 to 14.2 in consecutive weeks.

lol @ Richmond players prancing around like they are any good

Too bad we arent playing them next week to put them back in their place again

They are absolute hacks playing against a team that is literally not even trying

    2024 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #18 Jake Melksham

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.

    2024 Player Reviews: #42 Daniel Turner

    The move of “Disco” to a key forward post looks like bearing fruit. Turner has good hands, moves well and appears to be learning the forward craft well. Will be an interesting watch in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #8 Jake Lever

    The Demon’s key defender and backline leader had his share of injuries and niggles throughout the season which prevented him from performing at his peak.  Date of Birth: 5 March 1996 Height: 195cm Games MFC 2024: 18 Career Total: 178 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 5

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.
