Does bringing in great players on great money ever really cause instability? I've heard supporters use that line often, but I can't recall any evidence of that happening in my lifetime.

I would have thought in the professional era, most players would look past the envy of the big income earners and would be quite happy to have a superstar added to their side to enhance their flag chances.

Brad Hardie to the Bears rings a bell. They wouldn't kick it near him. But they were a rabble and hardly a football team at that point, so maybe the example falls down.

 

Black was well beaten by Lucas Cook a few weeks ago

Watched the VFL last weekend with Black playing and he looked fairly dangerous off few posessions (kicked a few goals and lots of points i think), but when he gets to AFL he seems to be like our Bail/Matt Jones/Mckenzie this year. But go back a year or two ago and he was on fire..

Also Jack steele to debut for GWS.. Have never seen him play but i want him like a Tyson type deal.

As for Dangerfield...

I really dislike his condescending attitude to the fans. I understand it is a profession for him but calling it a hobby for fans is a real put down, for true fans/supporters it is much more than a hobby and some times to our detriment.

Happy that he won't be coming here.

 

Personally, I would like to recruit very good players.

Very good players are ok by me.

I think if you asked Jones and Hogan and Tyson - they would also like us to recruit very good players.

Agree'd, i get the sense he's lapping up the attention at the moment, everyone knows exactly what he's doing.


Currently my thoughts for end of season:

TRADE:

Howe

Grimes

Fitzpatrick

RETIRE/DELIST:

Jamar

McKenzie

Bail

Think the big turnover will come at the end of 2016. Given we're coming into a weak draft we may have the calm before the storm this year.

“Rohan Bail, Dean Terlich, Jake Spencer and Matt Jones have continued to play well for Casey Scorpions and are in the mix for the final side, which will be finalised after Friday’s - See more at: http://m.melbournefc.com.au/season/team-announcement#sthash.HRviSHFx.dpuf

Really? All of these are due to be delisted. In fact we should have delisted them already, Where is the pride in MFC? Get some elite top level players into the greatest football club in the world and get rid of these spuds!!!!!!

Should roos and Goodwin go and pick the elite top level talent off the elite top level talent growing tree that grows in the gardens at elite top level talent street, in elite top level talentville?

 

Hi I am the Ultimate Demon and I am a new member. I am a die hard Demons supporter and everyone in my family is!

Here are a few players who I have considered:

- Dean Terlich

- Matt Jones

- Jordie Mc Kenzie

- Rohan Bail

Please post your thoughts! :)

Welcome legend.

Like your enthusiasm in your first post. It will soon fade and you will be as bitter as the rest of us.

In response to your post, i couldn't give a rats [censored] ass if any of the players you named were gone by seasons end. So i recon you nailed it.

See you round the D'Land.

Forget about the draft. We will be trading, methinks.

What about this trade:

Mebourne: Pick 1 (likely 4 or 5), Pick 2 and Howe

GWS: Conglio, Tomlinson, Hampton

Would they go for it?

Pretty sure Matt Jones & Terlich are contracted.

Doubtful, but we can dream!

I didn't want to start another thread so here is a Martin Flanagan story on Aaron Davey Liam Jurrah & Ozzy Wonaeamirri playing in Vic last week.

Interesting that the censored word in my reply quote was not censored in your original post Song, but no doubt will in the next little while.....

Welcome to the nut house UD.

Considered for what may I ask? Delisting I presume.

What a great first post, I had the Ultimate Warrior's entrance song running through my head as I started reading it.


Give it up.

It's not going to happen.

rpfc, no barrow to push from me. I posted that because it was about 3 past MFC players.

PS. If Jurrah was on our rookie list now, would he play this week?

How did he get there?

It's your hypothetical - in what reality could we have picked him up in the RL? Certainly not this one.

One post and already you make sense! I think that the four players you suggest are better suggestions than the three de listings suggested in post # 506

How did he get there?

It's your hypothetical - in what reality could we have picked him up in the RL? Certainly not this one.

You could choose to engage and answer the question or not.

So if by some miracle he was on the list as a rookie let's say the pixies did it, would he play this week? I say probably. I am not advocating that we do rookie him.

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
