If that's true we deserve more than just pick 3 :)

We may deserve it but it won't happen, look at the Buddy compensation.

We will get pick 3 as compensation, and we can use it, and by using it I mean as a negotiating tool. All those sides picking after us get pushed down the list, some of those sides will be very keen on a player and may offer a sweetener for us. ie. If MFC doesn't pick Brayshaw at 3 we will trade player X for your 2nd round pick.

Frawley has been at 75% pace all year, and still finished in our top 10 players.

He's good and will add ALOT to a team in contention with the need for a big experienced quality backman.

Its a big loss for us. Denying it is so, won't change that.

Absolutely, and I think it's been forgotten amongst all the angst that an in form Frawley is an asset, and although he wasn't predominately used as a full back this year, he is still a premier backman

I can live with the compo right now because of the position the clubs in, but we have to stem this flow of players leaving as soon as they get a wiff of that FA status

Frawley hasn't played to his alleged capabilities since 2010. He may play to that level with another team. Who knows?

But he won't with us so lets just forget about that.

Roosy could work wonders with Picks 2-3.

Mature player and an elite kid. (Hopefully!!)

If Chip has been offered 7 years at $600,000 p.a. Then he has to take that.

Good luck to him.

Fairly accurate quote from you gramps.

People are worried about the Dees FA effect pppppppffffffffft.

The way footy is going and the bloke who is coaching us,Its a given he will be up to his eras in talks with FA players from other clubs.

Maybe we are the only ones living in this reality.

See ya chipper,thanks and goodbye,roll on 2015 with a new team{as we will every year}.

AH THE FENCE, FIRST IN WITH THE NEWS,AS I ALLUDED EARLIER ( SEE MY PREVIOUS POST) SUGGESTING CRYPTICALLY THAT FREO WAS A LATE SUITOR! EVEN BETTER THAN BARRETT , "SHIP IN THE KNIGHT" ANCHORS AWAY IT'S FREO MAKING A LATE CHARGE!

GEE IT'S GOOD TO BE "ONE THE MONEY" HEY MOON YOU STILL THERE ?? what do you make of this one eh?? What's that you say," Fluke" oh yeah fluke! my new avatar" Picket Fluke"

7 years @ 600k reportedly offered by freo according to SEN.

Surely not.

I reckon so!

He had one good year in my opinion. His ball handling ability at times is average at best. I say good riddance and replace with someone that can defend and dispose of the ball properly. Its no point being a great defender if you give the ball back to the opposition all the time!

, couldnt tackle Bontempelli, lost that game for us,

I believe he is to blame for the GFC and Jack Watts as well. ( I secretly think he is the mastermind behind ISIL)

Couldn't blame him for going for the sort of money being suggested. Can blame him for the [censored] about waiting to see the direction of the club etc and then playing lazy football looking suspiciously like avoiding injury.

He has never shown any leadership qualities and pick 3 will be a great result for us.

Pick 3 is great but does it truly replace an 8 year key position backman?

He has 8 pre-seasons behind him, 8 seasons of experience and a fully developed football body.

Pick 3 sees us having to start all over again.

At least I have faith in those using these picks now.

Freo has been right in the mix for a long time, and their offer is considerably better than Geelongs by the sounds of things, I really hope/think he will go to the dockers because us getting pick 3 would be win-win really.

We don't have to take a kiddie....We have to get some real talent.

Holy Cow "Fremantle offers James Frawley $3 million five-year deal" latest headline from the Herald Sun. Serious money now on offer and way better than Geelong. No thinking needed take the money and run Chip

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
