This would have been a perfect time to send the scum packing and get a Tasmanian team to join the comp.

Just shows that the AFL are not serious about going to Tassie.

They never have been

Not because of Tassie but the board and then quite a few of the AFL management team should go.

IMO we need a new GM with no alliance to existing people.

i see you are still a dreamer, od

 

Maybe Mike Fitzpatrick can be Essendon's "top-up" ruckman! I am sure that they would find a way to facilitate it.

If the EFC wins more games than the MFC in 2016 we should quit the AFL or rename our team i.e the toadstools because they are toxic. Highly unlikely to happen but…….

Added Stokes and Polkinghorne... now 6 to the cheats.

Will we get a top up ... Mitch Golby?  Matt Arnot?? running half back

I don't think we'll get one.  More than likely we'll get to promote an extra rookie, although then being able to add another to the list would be good.

VFL rejects do nothing for me.  Golby and Arnot don't have the potential to get a game.  Mitch White does.  I'd rather us go down that road.


Odd that Essendon end up with a full list and we don't.Not unexpected given the nature of the AFL but odd none the less.

It is odd, but I don't think one rookie, for one year only, will make a huge difference to our fortunes. It may be an advantage for Casey though.

I do feel we should be able to get another rookie.

Most likely they wont turn out to be a player but what if the next aaron davey is out there?

Trouble is you would have to draft him the next year before the other clubs.

I thought the Drug Lords only get 10 gifted players from their major sponsors, the AFL.

That would mean they are 2 short of a full list.


Nice to see the article in this morning's paper saying that Port are after Jamar as a "top-up" player to cover for Ryder and Montfries. Be excellent if it happened and Essendon had one of their ruck coaches poached!

Presumably we will be delisting players and promoting a rookie (or delisting a rookie) and the new rookie could stay on if good enough

CBDEES,Mike Fitzpatrick as EFC top up ruckman……AFL should give the go ahead. Taken in consideration his age the AFL should allow the centre square ( rename not so centre square) to be moved 50 metres closer to the EFC goals. Why not !!!!

I think the other clubs who have players suspended should have the right to nominate an additional rookie from the remainder of the draft pool. I would not be averse to us then picking Jake Lovett - he must not have been that far away anyway.

 

Seeing Stokes in the news, don't think there is much to worry about in then winning to many games. His cake in take was up during his retirement.

Based on his interview on the AFL site there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of passion there either.

Love the way the article refers to " lowly melbourne ".... Some people in the media seem to forget that we actually finished above both essendon and St kilda last year. Didn't think we could still be as low as essendon is now....

It annoys me too, but then we haven't exactly been anything but 'lowly Melbourne' for a long time.  Once we played good, consistent footy and we push for finals it will be hard to change that perception for some.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    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.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    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.
