Interestingly they mention that we've made 3 list changes, noting Shannon Byrne's retirement as well.

Mitch Clark's 'retirement' wasn't mentioned in the article.

    Must say I preferred Clisby to Terlich as a player

    At least Nicho can hang his hat on his preseason time trial wins...

    There's no doubt our list needs change, but go easy on some of these blokes being delisted at this time of year. It must be a bloody awful feeling for them. A bit of sensitivity wouldn't go astray.

    Surely they're not holding out for some trade value for Strauss!

    Might be holding off on delisting Strauss, Tapscott etc in the hope that we can use them to slightly improve our picks. i.e. Strauss and pick 80 to a club for pick 75.

    Good luck to them and thanks for their service.

    Neither guy can claim they didn't try. Nicho especially always gave his all.

    I wonder if we'll try to trade Blease or Strauss before delisting. Might get a pick upgrade or something.

    Could well be it. Some will say they have no currency, but if we can off load Morton for a pick then anyone can be traded...

    Best of luck to them. They have done something we have all dream't and thats play a game for the Melbourne Football Club.

    Best of luck to them in the future and what ever career paths they take. They have both contributed to the club and thats all we ask from them.

    Ps I was a big fan of clisby....

    Part of the job description IMO. They are no longer on the list and although some may want to sugar coat it they have not delivered a great deal to the club. Pumping up there tyres just waters down the impact the true great of the club have achieved.

    Thanks for the effort but you were not good enough to get a game in collectively the worst team in the last 15 years.

    They got paid a bloody good wage to live every boys dream. No need to hide from the truth.

    It's part of the game Maggot, but in reality two guys just lost their job. There is no need to stuck the boots in (like some have on here).They were not up to playing AFL, but it was the clubs decision to hire them.

    Maybe Progressive Insurance can bundle them for that bloke with the horse body.

    Harsh and unnecessary. And I'm not quite sure what you mean by sugar coating Maggott. No one is under the illusion that they were stars but I certainly don't think my opinion of Robert Flower is lessened because Clisby struggled to get a regular game. it's a nonsense.

    Clisby was a shrimp and Nicholson was a jet who kicked out of bounds very well.

    They were both squibs at times.

    Cheers to both for their efforts and I wish them all the best in the future

    Perhaps we can invite them to a reunion of hacks, although that may lessen my previous post. Go Dees.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
