Believe Cam Pedersen re signing was a big factor in Hibberd signing with MFC

Don't ridicule Pedo.

    Lewis said Hogan signing played a part in him coming to the Dees. Saty has made a joke

    You know ... coz Lewis said Hogan signing was a big factor ... take it down a notch in class for Hibberd/Pedo ... oh never mind.

    Thanks to both for the explanation.

    It may actually be the harshest thing Saty has ever said about a Melbourne listed player

    Instead of Pick 47 in this scenario, would it be worth more to us to try for their next years 3rd round pick? 

    I wouldn't have thought so as that would leave our draft selections this year as Picks 83 & 84.

    Wasn't ridiculing Pedo, his name was just far enough down the list of re signings to make the line slightly absurd  personally really like the bloke as a person and player. Think personally they asked Lewis to say the Hogan line, good vibes, think the 3 year offer and friendship with Todd Viney main factors

    There's no evidence of a high profile player nominating us as a preferred destination, hence you can't say that we've improved our attractiveness.

    Collingwood don't have a 1st round pick yet are gunning for O'Meara. There's always ways of getting the deal done, but you have to land the fish first.

    Ive heard his name pronounced 'Hibbaard', I would have assumed the phonetic Hibberd would be correct?

    tackling the big issues now.

    Well Leigh Montanya is Mon-tag-na. And Yay-ger O'Meara pronounces it Jay-ger.

    We'll just have to ask Yibbity Yibbida how to say his name.

    hibberd is an english name derived from the normans

    It means, "man who disgraced himself by the bad influence of ignoble people but who was able to redeem himself by leaving them and surrounding himself with wise and upstanding people instead".

    We did shaft them.  Hibberd is a ready made gun and if he had nominated another club with a higher pick, he would have gone for that. 

    What I would like even more would be for us to shaft them, regularly, on the field too.

    Geez I'm pumped for round one. Think I'm going to go hibernate to pass the time. Off season is like a car trip interstate when you're a kid. It's better just to sleep it out. 

    Joking aside. Hilarious as it was. This is the first time in my rationally thinking life that it feels like we could really go somewhere. The pickups we have secured arent speculative, hopeful (although maybe I am) or stopgaps. They are good players that fill roles we are ready to fill, not desperately need to fill. 

     

    You're a smart young man. You must have an intelligent father.

    So should we call him Norman Hibberd?

    No, that is how you spell and pronounce it.

    Just read that intelligence is more likely apparently passed on by the mother. So he must have had an intelligent mother. ;)

    Considering the fact that I live with her, I will have to concede. She was intelligent enough to choose me as a partner.

    Is this Demonland's first father-son recruit?

    You're right. Let's give Lewis back. I really didn't want to give up pick 66 anyway

    My fault, I should have been less ambiguous ... what I meant was that our next year's second pick would become less appealing as a trade in the Hibberd/Essendon transaction if we were more likely to move up the ladder ... which is the case with Lewis onboard.

    Wouldn't give Lewis back for anything ...

    Hibberd kept a low profile compared to Lewis? No presser from Hibb?

    Different kettle of fish I think.

    Lewis was a big (and good) news story. Hibb will probably do an interview before 1st round, but I imagine that will be after he has a chance to be able to talk about being with the Dees during pre season. rather than the obvious questions about the other things :)

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The winds finally returned to Casey Fields for the Demons’ third home game of the VFL season, and its impact was immediate. After two opening rounds played in uncharacteristically fine conditions, the Anzac Day clash brought back the familiar gusty conditions that have been a feature of the region at this time of the year.
      Forced to kick into the breeze first, the slow-starting Demons faced a tricky opening against an enthusiastic young Tigers outfit. Casey responded by turning the contest into a scramble, pressuring Richmond into errors and missed targets. The tactic proved crucial, keeping the game tight for three and a half quarters before the Demons pulled away with the autumn wind at their backs.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      It seemed as if the whole purpose of the Anzac Eve clash at the MCG between the Demons and the Tigers was building toward that single, unforgettable moment when Kozzie Pickett soared above Campbell Gray and all but fittingly etched his name onto the face of the 2026 Frank ‘Checker’ Hughes Medal.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.
