Yup, considering teams would have been throwing 700k at him by the time season 2016 rolls around it is a steal

 

Is that old age moon??

Picked it one Ox. Moonie shuffles around the supermarkets looking for specials on incontinence pads. Poor [censored].

I estimate I'm just over half your age BBO. Who you calling old, gramps?!

2 years is good. He hasn't played a game yet, let's remember, has a major back injury that he is getting over. And the end of that coincides with the approx end of Roosy's tenure, so it gives Jesse the option seeing who takes over, not that that is the reason for 2 yrs.


The Roos train is a rollin' on ....

Thank heavens for that.

Not that I was worried about him leaving. Just couldnt handle the negative 'sky is falling' posters always chirping on about him leaving for Freo.

I like how he has a go at u BBO!!! HA HA.
 

Fingers crossed that he is a one club player, or does not leave till he has a won a few flags. If he realises his potential he will be such an important piece of the premiership puzzle.


Glorious news. Two years makes perfect sense. He could be the best player in the comp by the end of 2017, or he could have snapped his back in half and never played a game - it offers a level of protection for both parties.

It'll be a great relief when he puts pen to paper. I was going to be needing a medical certificate for MFCSS if the contract negotiations lingered into next year.

And I'm twice your IQ!!!

3 years at his time of life is an eternity. He will be more entrenched in Melbourne and hopefully we will be more competitive and playing finals. Chances of being a one club player massively increased. Happy days!

I'm excited. I just kicked my husband in the shin after he smirked and said "he may never get on the park".

You should have kicked him in the balls. That would have - (a) Certainly shown your displeasure at his flippant comment. (b) Established your authority for all time.

If he keeps this up I might just do that. He should know better by now.

The better part of this news is that the club obviously is super confident that his back problems will be over soon. No concerns of his doing a Paul Prymke.


Bloody brilliant news. No issue with the 500k. He'll be worth every cent of it.

Great investment and terrific news.

We will still need another big bodied forward who also has a bit of pace. Someone who is hard to match up on and together with Dawes and Hogan, would make our forward line quite formidable. We could almost rotate the 3 within the forward line with different roles (within games) to further make it hard for the opposition. I believe that might be an ideal scenario for Roos.

Either Watts or Frawley can be that 3rd big forward (At some stage Watts will put on a bit of muscle which in turn will help his overall game)

Haven't heard the latest on Hogan but it would be great to see him play at least a few games towards the end of the season. If he's fully healthy, let him loose.

Well, in theory that should be Fitzpatrick, but he seems to have stalled for the moment. Big second half of the year?

Watts can be the 3rd tall with pace, it's the perfect position for him.

I would have thought you want to tie him up for at least three.

Who knows then how Moonie would react to that?

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.
