Patrick Dangerfield


Demonsterative

Recommended Posts

I don't understand this mentality - the club would not be so stupid as to offer this kind of contract to danger without having enough to keep hogan when his contract comes up. We have the $$ to have both.

I reckon also, Danger's will be very heavily front ended, & sliding to allow for Jesse's contract to grow, & then others as well in future... take the money up front Danger buy your property while you can..... then you can settle into rhythm enjoying your football with a rising phoenix.

A big offer to Danger, if the Dees know he is already committed to Geelong, could be camouflage for another target.

could be TT, or it could be a red hot go for Danger,,, & if it falls flat its advertising for other contracted elite players who maybe wish they weren't contracted. licking lips...

lets see watt pans out in all this?

I'm a bit disappointed everyone has failed to piece the jigsaw together. It's clear that Franklin is out of Sydney and a big chance of ending up at the Dees. We got into Dangerfield's ear with the news. He deliberately didn't name a team of preference because he has assured Melbourne that if Buddy signs so will he.

While I understand your man crush on Hogan (have one myself), I watched him at training and went out to Casey just to see him play that first year and also think he could be the forward of his generation.

Personally, I think Schwartz before he did his knees was a better talent.

A great talent. I remember him starring at Victoria Park in defence.

Schwarz was more spectacular, while I prefer Hogan's attack in contests.

We'll agree to differ.

In other news, Alastair Clarkson is replacing Paul Roos as senior coach of the Dees next year.

Hogan v Schwarz, finally some arguments that aren't about how [censored] we are.

Roos on AFL360 said that we did not offer 10mil for Paddy.

Was told a long time ago it was cats or crows.

I don't think he'll end up at Melbourne.

But Roos is just keeping his cards close to his chest. The club is under no obligation to tell the truth re. what it's offered. It can lie about it as much as it wants. There's no rule against that. You can't be 100% sure until a deal is 100% done. Until then every other Victorian team is a chance, albeit a small one.

I only heard the sound grab but did Buckley then get stuck into Robbo for asking such a specific question?

Link?

Robbo asked Roos

  • "Have you offered Dangerfield $X amount over X years?"
  • Roos replied with "I haven't no"
  • Buckley laughed and said "Ask a broader question" as in you asked if ROOS has offered in which he said he personally hasn't so Buckley was getting Robbo to ask a broader question as in "Has Melbourne offered him a contract"

Bucks moreso made a joke about Robbo asking such a specific question because it allowed Roos to explicitly say no. Afterwards Bucks asked him (Robbo) to ask a more general question regarding melbournes offer to Danger to see if Roos could still answer in the same way. Seemed to be in jest and just having a laugh at how easy Robbo made it for Roos to say no

---- dang it beat me too it!

Robbo is a pathetic excuse for a journalist.

I thought his reputation on her was ill-deserved until I watched him interview Hogan.

Yes he did, it made it easy for Roos to dance around the question. Whether it is true or not, technically I believe you aren't allowed to make offers yet.

Some peanut on facebook claiming we will trade Toumpas to cats for Josh Walker, who will then trade Toump to Adelaide for Dangerfield.

Lol. Is it necessary to mention that? There are enough ridiculous trades suggested on Demonland to last a lifetime.

And this is example 101 of why you should never even bother reading Facebook rumour pages. It still annoys me that people even bother posting them here.

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    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
