For the love of god, get him off the banner. I can deal with this more than Clark, but still - we developed him into an AA key position player and now he goes and jumps ship presumably to Hawthorn. Good riddance.

    All the best Chip. I'm not disappointed he's gone but he still gave us good service, regardless of how blinded we became to that once we accepted he would leave.

    Although I must say I'm looking forward to Hogan tearing him a new one next year at the G. I'll look forward to that one!

    I liked the bloke and am sad he is gone, but not surprised. If we had of had a half decent team the past couple of years he would've been an absolute champion of the game.

    Players are temporary, the club is forever (unless it keeps playing crap and folds...)

    Frawley was a gun and I am sad to see him go. A genuine defender who could break a line, play on the huge forwards, and monster opposition forward lines. My son's favourite player. Thanks Chip for every effort you put in for the Dees, and for giving one of my sons a favourite player to look up to in a era of losses, no excitement and few thrills.

    However, I am neither surprised nor disappointed. Neeld killed his natural flair, and Frawley leaving sits right on Neeld's lap. He has not played any of those great backman games for almost 2 years, and needs fresh air.

    Pick 3 here we come.

    Now Roos gets to go to work...............We need a new team...

    Thanks Chip...but i am disappointed that you didn't work harder under the NEW REGIME....and that also goes for Clark.

    I hope he signs on for big bucks wherever he goes. We need pick #3 or this offseason could be problematic.

    Livid that we are losing a player coming into peak and a vital part of a serious push to a premiership.

    ffs.

    For some strange reason we anticipated this might happen.

    It's Andy's birthday today and he's out celebrating (hopefully the fact we get # 3 compo on top of the occasion) but I'm sure that the minute he gets the opportunity, Chip will get the chop from our banner.

    Jack, when he gets a chance can he just replace him with a number 3 until further notice?

    Did he ever look at our offer?

    Kinda rude.

    Thanks for the service, I don't wish you any luck.

    Glad he played such a large percent of his year away from the back line. I get his decision, but I have a hard time not thinking he is a [censored]...

    No surprise there! Now it all comes down to our compo. With every man and his dog trying to talk down what we should get it's now up to the AFL to grow some cojones and give us what we deserve out of this train wreck!

    But that was all part of the club preparing for life without Frawley. Did we need him in the backline this year, not really.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
