They may well have been. Who knows (or cares now)? I was never worried about him going, but it's the symbolism of these signings that matters to me. Our young players are clearly investing in the c

Combine his shutdown on Barrett over twitter combined with: “From day one I knew I wanted to re-sign, I love the club,” Petracca said. WELL I BLOODY LOVE YOU CHRISTIAN!!!

beauwdy...

the list is starting to shape up a bit, we're heading the right way

Things must be going very well at club level behind closed doors

Weve been wrist slitting all week after a terrible loss, yet we read that the players seem happy with the club.. Hogans quotes in that article were spine tingling stuff

“He is super-explosive, and he is one of those midfielders who are hard to find. He has an ability that not a lot of people are born with, because he is tall, strong, and he is explosive... so I was obviously pretty flat seeing him go down. He will be a superstar, and he will be back better than ever.”

Still nothing on Twitter from the club yet...

Very poor.

Yeah, its poor as usual. I mean its only one of our brightest prospects committing to the club an extra 2 years. Why would it be on the MFC website or Twitter?

I better be careful though, every time I rightfully criticize the club website someone jumps down my throat (usually TDI).

Geez we better improve by 2018 or there will be an exodus of talent.

Note the below from the article:

Petraccas new deal follows similar extensions for Melbournes pick No. 3 Angus Brayshaw and No. 9 Christian Salem.

FMD if we ain't any good by 2018 I think we will be in even deeper duck poobilies than we are now.

Would be nice to win today for a change to top it off.

Better not be another flogging.

Our young core group are really close, I know macca spoke to them about how when he was at Geelong they all agreed winning a premiership together would be worth more than more money elsewhere, and everything I'm hearing from my friend who is very close with Mates with Jesse suggests that's rubbed off,

I don't think we will have an issue with losing these boys as long as we keep improving.

Side note: at work I spoke to one of the assistant coaches as he was in the office, and he said the best thing about our last crop is petracca, Brayshaw and hogan will get all the attention but he thinks Neil bullen will prove to be a huge steal, potentially the best of the lot.

I would give my right arm for this to be true.

I watched ANB the other week against Sandy and i thought he was cleary the best player for us along with Michie. His aggression and inside impressed me the most.

One of Richmond's assistant coaches right? That's a huge wrap, but ANB would have to be pretty damn special to be better than Hogan. He might end up better than the other two as it's not unusual to find good midfielders around the pick 40 range (Luke Parker, Lachie Neale both went around there).

Yeah ss, I agree but I think the point is he will just go under the radar but is a lot better than his draft position reflects

    DERAILMENT by KC from Casey

    It wasn’t quite a trainwreck although at times, it sure looked like one, so I’ll settle for “derailment”.  The trip to Brighton Homes Arena in Springfield outside the back of Brisbane might not exactly be the same place where Homer Simpson’s family resides but, if you listened closely to the utterances of the Casey Demons fans both at the ground or watching via livestream, you could hear lots of groaning and plenty of expressions of “D'oh!” reverberating in the background, particular

    TEN YEARS AFTER by Whispering Jack

    Things have changed in the more than ten years since the West Coast Eagles decimated Melbourne by 93 points on the MCG early in the 2014 season. The two sides had not met at the home of football in the interim until yesterday when Melbourne won by a comfortable 54 points to remain in contention for this year’s finals series. Back in those days, the Demons were in the midst of their Great Depression but they have since tasted premiership glory and experienced a long enough period among

    PREGAME: Rd 18 vs Essendon

    The Demons are back at the MCG once again and will once again be fighting for a spot in the Top 8 as they come face to face with Bombers on Saturday night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
