Agreed

Dunn was a fool to make that post

no Hawk players would have stuck up for Buddy after he ditched them, in fact as soon as he announced he was gone he became the enemy

And all Buddy did was leave via free agency, Clark burned us in the most disgusting way possible

I hope the players despise Clark after what he did to us, although its now obvious Dunn isnt one of them

So if no Hawk players stuck up for buddy then why is he part of Jordan Lewis wedding party?

FFS some people need to think before posting rubbish as usual.

The issue wasn't that Dunn stuck up for Mitch. It was that he criticised Dee supporters for their angry response to Mitch leaving. He probably intended to criticise the poor taste comments made but the way it came across was that he was potting his own (Dee's) supporters.

The Lewis/Buddy comparison isn't the same. Frawley and other Dee players are attending Rivers' forthcoming wedding and supporters aren't commenting on that.

The Dunn/Clark thing was completely different.

BTW, Hawks players didn't let their friendship stop them from physically going after Buddy in the GF. I hope ours do the same with Clark (and Frawley).

The club probably advised him to remove it because he should not be conversing with the nuff-nuffs who are frothing at the mouth.

Dunn knows Frawley, probably is good friends with him, that doesn't change because he leaves the Demons.

It's pathetically naïve of you to think that the players should spurn other players that leave a club. Clubs treat players as chattel to achieve an end, players are aware that their careers are at the mercy of those at the clubs.

Many on here want to trade out all but a few players - if the club can spurn a player on a whim, why should the players spurn each other for a similar decision by one of their colleagues?

This is not some emotional investment in the club for them, it is their career. Frawley made the best decision for his career (and it happens to be the best decision for the Demons too), and we should get over what the club got over ages ago.

Doesn't seem like the best decision for the Dees. If he's on 1.8m over 4 years we'll be lucky to get pick [censored] 20.

We will see.

High time Frawley now indicates who he wants to play with so that the finality and planning for us can begin in earnest!

Cmon James, time to come clean and let all know!

Nothing can happen until the Free Agency period begins on Friday.

What on earth difference does it make. Until the FA period opens AND the paperwork goes to the AFL AND they advise the compensation nothing can happen.

You clown.

In spite of all your rubbish, he did not make up his mind long ago, as you claimed.

He's still negotiating and playing the clubs off against one another.

I can tell you I 100% believe he's now headed for Hawthorn, whether he has decided it or not.

Where's your "ships in the night" rubbish now, ya peanut?!

All this because we front loaded his contract....

Dunn went in to bat for CLARK not FRAWLEY

nice work

No all of this because we were [censored].

The backline want out. Rivers, Chip, and watch Garlo take off when he gets his chance.

We all thought the shitness these guys had to endure would make them a stronger, more cohesive unit when the worm turns, but this is our team and we should have realised we have a bunch of downhill skiing sooks. So I expect Colin to have a good year, and then decide whether he wants to reunite with his old mate Rivs at the cats, or Chippa at the Hawks.

On the topic of front ended contracts should we start offering back ended ones if a players coming up for FA?

All this because we front loaded his contract....

Even if he was a RFA, given his form and efforts I don't believe we would have matched any offer anyways.

Exactly

Restricted free agency is a farce

What club would want to keep a player that doesn't want to be there?

Has chosen Hawthorn.

jared and mitch will be sad :(

And poor Chris Scott...

At least James has smart people advising him. I doubt the Hawks are paying as much as the Cats which could be a problem for us.


According to Jay Clark Chip has chosen the Hawks. Not surprising or unexpected.

This could be very very bad for us............

Hnmm very interesting if true. Given his Girlfriend has strong Geelong ties, I find this astounding given my inside info! Obviously the x Hawthorn factor had more pull than either his girlfriend or the Freo ship ahoy!

Interesting!

I would have thought so if he was headed to Geelong where they are known for paying unders due to culture?

Ties to Geelong, or the Geelong Football Club?

I think, opposite to B59, Hawthorn has always been the club, and Geelong joined the party too late. In Geelong's smugness, they probably thought they just had to show up and would nab him.

Eat shlt kitties.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front.  They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

  • 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.
