No he won't.

Let's hope he doesn't have to make that decision, DD.

 

Don't bet on it DD I'm betting this was a big part of why we have tried to 're sign him so early, get an idea of where he is at incase a tough decision has to be made

Ok, lets entertain this crap about jones for a second then.

He's contracted for another 12 months & restricted next year. Even if he tells the club he's eager to walk next year to the pies, they either have to satisfy us with a trade this year (currently looking like pick 5 for beams, their own 1st Rnd pick & Lumumba as real trade-able assets) or chances are we get band 1 compo next year which if we don't significantly improve in 2015 is likely to be another top 3 pick. Thus whatever we got for him this year would have to be pretty bloody good!

Either way we hold the cards, not jones nor collingwood.

So early? Gun players routinely get extensions with a year or more to go on their contracts, that's why there's soo much media hype about anyone playing their last contracted year without an extension. There is nothing early about it.

Meanwhile, players are jumping ship at collingwood left right and centre!!!

People on here were mocking suggestions pendlebury is gettable on other threads just because he's collingwoods captain...... But at demonland we like to panic and jump at shadows on the back of what a physio said.......


You mentioned Jones said that he will sign a extension soon. That article backs up my argument.

No where is it mention he will sign an extension. Just the fact that the club are set to put an offer forward.

It says both parties are negotiating an extension. I think if he'd made up his mind to leave already they wouldn't be wasting their time talking to us much like Frawley's manager refusing further discussions all year.

Collingscum beat up Nathan's dad, won't be happening. Plus if it does I'm done with this game, not even joking.

What if we get Dangerfield though as a replacement?

What's the point if we're losing our best midfielder to accomodate another?

N. Jones ain't leaving. If he does, I leave AFL.


tim mossy how are you @dazzledavey

Lol what???

There are people here who I play forum footy with that will notify you have the wrong bloke pal.

Good try but.

Also heard Roos wants Malcheski although not everyone was in favour.

trenners future as a floating small forward

Losing Maxwell, Beams, McCaffer and Heretier for next year is going to hurt.

Next year could be Swan's last.

Wouldn't go near that joint right now.

Mitch's rejection as well.


All i want is the dees to go hard

Also heard Roos wants Malcheski although not everyone was in favour.

who viney???

keep him at arms length, he missed Ollie...

get Malcheski via trade.

I'm expecting a quiet trade day today...

Once we get our pick for Chip then the wheels will be in motion.

The first bizarre rumour of the silly season : jeremy howe op for trade

Dont understand why this is bizarre. I have mentioned previously I expect if you are not a pure mid or true key position your name will be floated for the right price. Howe, Garland, Grimes, Watts will all be raised for the right price.


What does this mean?

Clark chose Geelong despite Colonwood throwing everything at him.

Don't find a Howe trade surprising in the slightest. Has everyone forgotten the spray Roos gave him and Watts? He's less than in love with these two.

He was very good in defense in some games, but very quiet in others. Didn't have an interrupted preseason so no real excuse for a form slump given his fitness.

This.

Even if the twice removed rumour from a club physio is true, why would Jones go from us to the Pies? It won't be to go home/ for more opportunity.

If it's about money we can (and will) match the $$ the pies throw at him.

If it's about success there are at least 8 teams with better prospects than the pies atm.

Oh please........If coaches traded every player that he gave a spray to, we'll be trading out every player every year

I guess he at least has some currency.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
