Patrick Dangerfield


Demonsterative

Recommended Posts

Surely Gen, the players are not allowed to talk about upcoming trades or offers???

Shooting the sh!te with a few friends has got to be different to discussing this with a journo. We are going to let players talk to the friends aren't we?

And GD has only said that we are going after him - knew that! Mahoney said it - and that we still have the offer out there.

Just told by someone with a paternal relationship to a current player that Dangerfield possibility is still very much alive.

Once the compensation is known for Frawley leaving I suspect that things will be come pretty clear for either possible outcome in terms of Adelaide and Dangerfield. Despite Collingwood's interest, the only club in 2014 in Melbourne that can entertain both the needs of AFC and Dangerfield (for contract) is the MFC.

Still think it's unlikely that we will secure him, but I am glad that it seems that we are at least having a crack, and won't die wondering!

It is alive but can be killed very quickly. From the start I think it is very clear that Adelaide want him to commit beyond next year and he is giving them the Tom Scully, James Frawley, Buddy Franklin and every other player that has left their club line, wait till end of next year, code for I will leave at the end of the year. If Adelaide aren't comfortable that he will commit beyond next year they would be mad not to look to trade him this year especially if the can get picks 2 and 3 in this years draft.

Absolutley not, JONES will walk next year as a FA and he is one of the important leaders/changers in the new culture

Throw co-captaincy at him. I am sure that Jones would love to have him hitting the packs alongside him and l am equally sure that Grimes would realise that his replacement is in the best interests of the team!

Who said anything about picks 2&3, that would be well overs from our perspective! Offer one first round pick (& Spencer for steak knives)!

Roos has made it clear he would not use pick 2 & 3 on Danger. He said it was overs and compared this with the Judd trade. I am sure we have the best offer on the table, but I am also sure it is not 2 & 3.

Well whatever it is, it's better than anyone else can offer and better than Adelaide will get next year if Danger walks.

3, Watts, Strauss, Blease, Terlich, Spencer and Evans?

Sounds good to me.

Lets just hope we don't have him on a front loaded contract like Frawley...

You love this rumor don't you. Jones is a restricted FA, well and truly, by a large margin, no ambiguities to it at all, not like Frawley's contract situation whatsoever. Further, Frawley got bumped by Watts' extension & the picking up of Dawes after he extended, so the club lost site of where he stood for FA, Jones remains in the top 5 paid players at our club next year regardless of getting a Dangerfield or not, I wasn't going to reveal my source for this but I will now just to shut this garbage up, my understanding of Nat's contract comes direct from Chris Connolly's mouth. Take it or leave it, but I'm happy to bet my balls on this one.

Yeah, you already cleared that up for me here:

The post you are now responding to I made several hours before that.

So, the rant wasn't really necessary, but thanks for the info all the same.

Sorry bud, didn't look at when you posted it, my bad. I'm a tad over the top about this cause it's one of the few things I actually have a bit of inside knowledge on.

Btw, for the Fitzpatrick lovers & haters out there, Chris also still thinks he's going to be a star one day.... Dunno if that's a blessing or a curse, much as I know Chris & really like the bloke, his record is a little bit of a mixed bag when it comes to calls like that.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.

    Strong marking youngster who plays forward and relief ruck, continued to make significant strides forward in his career path. The Demons have high hopes for van Rooyen as he stakes his claim to become an elite attacking forward.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level.

    Originally an NBL basketballer with the Brisbane Bullets, he moved across town in 2019 to the AFL Lions where he played 19 games before crossing to Melbourne where he was expected to fill a role as a back up ruckman/key forward. Unfortunately, didn’t quite get there although he did finish equal sixth in Casey’s best and fairest award. Date of Birth: 23 February 1999 Height: 198cm Games CDFC: 14 Goals CDFL: 13

    Sadly, had to wrap up a great career in midstream on the back of multiple concussions which culminated in the Maynard hit in the 2023 Qualifying Final. His loss to the club was inestimable over and above his on field talent given his character and leadership qualities, all of which have been sorely missed.
