Swann would not be doing his job if he did not question the Frawley compensation.

I disagree...Only Mouse and Swine have opined. For what.

Swanns the new boy in town trying to make a name for himself and Malthouse is becoming increasingly irrelevant by the day.

The many said nothing and these nongs pipe up. Mahoney was nicely dismissive of both.

correct - I am not sure why all the angst. If StKilda asked for a compensation pick would we as a club be sitting here quietly ?

There is a formula in place for free agents but it is not set in stone and there is the facility to "adjust". I believe the Franklin compensation was incorrect but if there were rumblings that the AFL in their wisdom agreed that the formula was wrong in the Franklin case and were going to give Hawthorn the number one pick I would expect our club to jump up and down.

When subjective decisions are to be made, and if the decision may have a negative impact on our club I would expect our people to make some noise like Swann is doing.

( in return - we should also be making noise supporting our case)

We are not doing our job unless we question the draft perks of other clubs and the fixture.

Roos has not been quiet on free agency and all manner things relating to our club.

We have been lambs in past and it is time we were lions.

Lucky the Doggies and now us have had our star players equalised.

So the reigning premiers have the best fullbacks in the comp to take on Swans again .

I'm neither surprised or disappointed (probably very few of us are!) ..... and we can now at least have our compo formally determined, and get on with recruiting a player who wants to be a Dee!

No surprise in the end.

Sad to lose another quality key player, but his heart was never in it towards the end.

He cost us the Bulldogs game (and Goal of the year nomination against) by failing to lay a decent tackle on a 19 year old. One of the worst errors of the year. Bye chip

Now time for the AFL to stand up and give the MFC what we deserve for losing a very important key position player. This will be a big decision in the context of the equalisation in the AFL. Pick 3 is a MUST

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again headlining another blockbuster at the MCG to kick off the round of footy. The Dees take on the Blues and have the opportunity to win their third game on the trot to solidify a spot in the Top 4 in addition to handing the Blues their third consecutive defeat to bundle them out of the Top 8.
