    If the mfc offered jesse a 10 year deal at 1 mil plus would anyone on here object??

    I think we should back-pay him with an apology for only offering $500k.

    Seriously though, it might all come down to team balance and success over the duration. Fingers crossed that we'll have a real issue in managing the cap in the years to come due to all of or stars.

    Part of me thinks (hopes) that if/when the time comes to get him to sign, the AFL might just be lurking secretly in the background to make sure he stays a dee.

    How could anyone object, it's not like we have poached him from another team, or through FA....we have drafted this guy as an underage player .....I think his team mates wouldn't have a problem with it, which can be a downside to getting a highly paid player on a teams list....

    He wears the number 1 and has been with us since he was 17... We all know he is worth it.

    He is a " marquee player " which will result in people signing up for memberships and the sales of merchandise and numbers through the gates...If we loose this guy it will be the biggest mistake the MFC has ever made.

    What would other teams be offering him? If Boyd is worth 1 mil/year for WB

    Surely, some Godfather-like offer has already been put to him.

    As Carey said yesterday he is just a player that demands the ball and wants to be the one to kick the goals. I just love his contested marking work and every time the ball goes in his direction you are just so confident he will mark it. He run up still looks weird but he is one of the reasons I look forward to going to the footy.

    You just have to pinch yourself that we have this guy and that he is so good already.

    We should put together a demonland task force to find him a young dèes supporting woman in melbourne to shack up with, personally id like to see bitter and biffen play a big role in this. That could only end well.

    Is it unwise to offer a 20 year deal?

    Could we make him our Environmental Ambassador?

    And he has got that natural football timing thing that you just can't teach. He instinctively knows when to body his opponent and how to give himself the advantage.

    He is sort of the anti Col Sylvia who was always half a beat behind most others whereas Jesse is has it sussed well before everyone else.

    Edit. And thanks for the clips HH. He is going to be making defenders look silly for a long time to come

    Edit 2. And whilst I would like to have Cripps in Red and Blue is there a supporter in the comp who would rather have him than Hogan? Jesse has had the number one defender play on him since the first round, the best, strongest and most experienced of every team and has lowered their colours more often than not. Honestly just call the press conference, apologise for the delay and give him the rising star

    Every week he seems to raise the bar of his abilities. 4 weeks left in his first season on playing on AFL defenders, what more can he achieve?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.
