Supporters whinging about losing Frawley and not being fairly compensated is perfectly fine.

Considering the AFL haven't exactly bent over for the MFC of late, I understand the concern of supporters.

Also media outlets suggesting last week Frawley would only command 400k - only adds to the concern.

Pick 3 is excellent compensation for a good stoppage backman, with limited skills, poor decision making - and below average execution.

The media, seriously they are 90% incompetent fools, quality journalists are few and far between and as I said Freo were offering massive dollars, which I know from outside the media to get him to move, Vic clubs didn't have to match that offer for him to stay home but they certainly had to go up to and above the $500k per season and give him a decent length of contract.

Frawley on very big bucks at Hawthorn, has performed only fairly, from a bottom club, reputed to have a (unconfirmed) back issue and played no part in winning any premierships.

I imagine a number of senior premiership players at the Hawks are never ever going to see this type of dough.

Hope the white ants have just entered the building.

I will certainly be watching Chip with interest to see if these deficiencies suddenly disappear once he has the time and space he never had at MFC as well as support and options all around him in a functioning backline with mid field support. My other interest will be how many games he plays vs Lake. They won't play both of them in the same game too often I would have thought. This is the Hawks bringing in depth at zero cost to them for what is the AFL's near perfect playing list. Edited by Earl Hood

Frawley: Frah-Li. Rhymes with 'creepy crawley. Small insect that claims to have red and blue blood and a heart that beats true. On further inspection has no stomach, brain or ability to lead and requires a yellow and brown anus to closely follow otherwise would lose itself and curl up like a slater. Cashturnal: only seen at contract time.

Hahahaha this is gold!!

Yes this is very nice, but let's not forget the far more important issue here. Whose in the "I told you so" camp? *raises hand*

The media are slow sometimes! Old news

Does anyone know whether if we landed Malceski, would it affect this pick 3?

Yep, unless we get him to go in the PSD and put a contract on him the saints won't go near.

Yes it would cancel out our compo. So we will give mal a wide berth methinks.

Yeah, he's either staying put or more likely going to GC anyway. Don't think we're in the running.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
