Anyone see woosha on the news tonight saying we shouldn't be talking to a player that is already contracted. I thought these banned players could walk if they wanted to. 

Anyway the dogs got boyd when he was still contracted and freo practically got McCartney. 

The AFL need to come out and clarify this point

 

I reckon hes signed and sealed at Melbourne.  Hopefully we get him as a delisted free agent.due to him beind doped up by his cheating club.

 

Either way who cares?. Beautiful destabilisation by PJ and the club and you can bet plenty of others will/have joined us.  Meanwhile you wouldn't know who we are really looking at would you? Boy we've come a long way.

I just love that Essendon is having a cry. Nothing else really interests me at the moment.

I love the hack CEO call. He took them to a flag and didn't oversee the whole club being slammed from pillar to post for injecting their players with who knows what. Not to mention the great work he has done at the dees. 

I was wondering what HeppelltitisD is too, is that one of the side effects from the unknown drugs from mexico?

One of the funny things Ess fans got stuck into me about when we signed PJ was the signing of Knights. Seems like it was a good descision now.

It is clear. Non Victorian clubs can talk to anyone and sign them any time, vic clubs are in breach of the laws of the game

The Don's got Woosha when still employed at another  club. Pot kettle!!

For PJ to come out and say something about the matter then you would pretty much think so. 


Beautiful isn't it? Work of art.

Knights did what he did with full board endorsment, he told them they wouldn't win much but that they were rebuilding. He was delivering that but Hird and others couldn't handle it and white anted him and then took the team Knights was putting together to the finals and then claimed the credit. 

Knights was no where near as bad as they make out, he may actually have been quite good.

How about the demise of the Filth?!

The carnage from Eddie's Karma bus may  well put the battle of Stalingrad to shame. 

 The entertainment factor is becoming engrossing. FIGJAM on the brink of being sacked, this years high draft pick off to GWS, and no points to snare the sons of club greats. I'd love to see Daicos in the orange and charcoal after the pies stole Treloar. I'm loving watching them unravel. 

It would be fairly sweet if Hibberd walked for nothing......

However, I'm predicting that he is 100% gone but will come for a 2nd round pick. The Dons will have to suck it up otherwise he will just walk.

The best thing about the situation is Essendon can't play hard ball. They'll keep their poker face on with the expectation we'll blink, but we won't pay overs, we'll offer what we consider fair, and if they act like the petulant children they are we'll tell him to walk for nothing as a DFA.

It's so bloody beautiful seeing the carcass of that drug-riddled hole continue to wither in misery.

Knights was ahead of his time. Whilst his gameplan needed some refining look at how teams like the Bulldogs are playing now.

Crazy as you may think, I would not take anyone from EFC irrespective of what they bring to the team. I like winning games but I like the moral high ground. We are looking at luring drug cheats to our club. For me, it has bad karma written all over it. I would also be concerned with giving away some really good players or those with great development potential. I know trading is part of the marketplace but we are developing a champion team and with that developing stability, mateship and a desire to achieve success together. I mean seriously who would you be happy to trade and what message does that send to our young team. 

Yep, this is absolutely crazy.

 

Three words for Worsfold.

"Harden Up Coach"

Clubs talk to opposing players managers all the time.

The clamour for Knights to be sacked by the Dins fans at the time was loud, the joy at golden boy coming home to deliver them to glory was even louder... Now look at them. Knights was one of many sacrifices along the way.

Apparently Essendon may ask the AFL to investigate Melbourne over Hibberd. The Age has reported that clubs can talk to players directly whenever they want, they just can't sign any contracts. Maybe this has gone further than we thought?

Yeah, but no one at our club is going to be stupid enough to offer him a contract to sign until the time is legal. No point. As long as he agrees to come across. This is the Druggies simply attempting to draw a line in the sand. I hope it backfires and a few more of their blokes go as a result.

  • 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?

  • POSTGAME: Fremantle

    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.
