Anyone every listen to this [censored] on sen? Most pesimistic uninteresting [censored] to broadcast via airways..

Constantly referred to Melbourne as the Brisbane Bears last year and just this morning.. Went out on a limb and said he has it on authority that Nine clubs are interested in Frawley..

I couldn't hate this bloke more if he had blood lines with hitler!

Thoughts?

Because they will bid up his price which will increase our compensation.

Not really though. Once the contract is worth so much that it comes in to first band of compensation it can't get any higher.

Personally I think we will offer him a contract worth as much as the first band of compensation and any other teams offers will be as well.

Plenty of teams will have a look at Frawley, he's the big name free agent. But the teams who can probably make offers that Frawley would listen to would be the following.

Haw, Geel, Gold Coast, GWS and Adel.

Of them I think unless Adel really step it up in the rest of the year he wouldn't be keen. GWS would be all about the big money that they might be able to offer. It's the first 3 who scare me.

Agreed. Obviously once he reaches the highest level of compensation it can't go higher. I want to ensure he reaches that level of compensation.

He will leave for finals and success, not money. The more teams in the hunt for him the better our position is.

He will leave for finals and success, AND money

Wouldn't be blaming Denham for this, I'm sure there are 17 clubs that have some interest in Fyfe. Let's say at least 9 have made enquiries to his management. Big deal.

Denham's comment calling us the "Bears" last year was close to the mark I would think.

For a journalist who from my knowledge has never played the game at a high standard, his attacks on players is what I find the most galling.

He went on and on about a Richmond player this morning saying repeatedly that they were "hopeless".

One of, if not the most offensive and pathetic individuals in the media.

Totally agree, I can't stand listening to him. I think he's a Troll and deliberately sets out to be controversial and over the top in his criticism of people within the game.

He loved picking on Melbourne and Glen Bartlett last week for suggesting we should become the NY Yankees of Melbourne - people called in giving him stick and he just got louder and louder on the subject, suggesting how stupid it was. Not sure how someone gets to the position he is in when he can't see that you won't progress far in life without setting goals for yourself. Seems very one eyed.

Can't wait till we're really moving up the ladder to see what his opinion is of us then.

Denham? Never heard of him. What does he do for a living?

Not too many years later the "Bears" went onto three peat. We got the beginning of a fab 4 and a young Jono Brown sitting on the sidelines at the moment. I'll take that analogy

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    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.
