It's all about the pixels !

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.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
