Hey Chook he looks a bit constipated IMO!!!

This may all be linked to something else other that a straight swap that we'll probably never know about.

That's what I'm thinking.

Well, that's what I'm thinking to make myself feel better anyway.

Think that's Melkshams head on Cale Mortons body.

Why get A graders when we can get solid C graders!

I know we have no snow flakes chance in hell of getting an A grader but it still shits me.

Ahh it is so nice to see DL returning to its usual positive self. Apparently Roos, Goodwin, McCartney and co have no idea what they're doing

 

So does this mean we're still a chance for Dangerfield or...?

True.

I wish him all the success imaginable and hope he rips it up for the club.

Think of it as a 10 step process. Most of us will come around to acceptance soon enough. Right now we are in denial/grief/anger.

Why??????

Are they discussing grammar on Trade Radio?

aint you bin listnin thru the ol' grammarphone, EH?

Don't understand the consternation - he's a better player than those we delisted and will likely walk into our 22. I'd have him in the team ahead of guys like Grimes or Watts as well. Whatever you say about him he is a competitor and I think he'll relish playing in a different environment with a FD that isn't run by an egomaniac.

My only concern is the WADA penalties as I think the Essendon players will get smacked. Not sure what, if any, assurances the AFL has given to clubs that trade in EFC tainted goods. I would assume none and we wear the risk but I guess offering him a 4 year contract (if that's what eventuated) means we have faith that he'll be a long term player even if he copped the maximum 2 years.

So does this mean we're still a chance for Dangerfield or...?

Probably the twentieth time that joke has been posted in the last 48 hours. And it still isn't funny.


We should have played Howe as FF for two winnable games mid-year, directed all forward entries to him.. given him a bag of 8 goals and then traded him at a fat price ala Jake Carlisle Super Swingman

Yep because the last time a melbourne player kicked 8 goals was...........

3:41pm: Breaking News

Michael Gleeson reports that Melbourne forward Jeremy Howe has accepted an offer to join Collingwood.

Howe has opted for the Pies over North Melbourne and Gold Coast, even though their offer is slightly less.

It is understood the offer from Collingwood - which was only received on Thursday - is a three-year deal.

We have not accepted any deal from Collingwood, they need to jump through hoops.

I suspect it's a contract extension.

They've since said Pick 25 :(

Ah well, there goes the dream that it was for our 2016 second-rounder, which could be around pick 35 :mad::)

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
