    I think Brayshaw (the wimp) not ours (the gun) has overstepped the mark with the 4% of games over 3 years quip. Wells has played 31 games in three years, and unless there are 258 games per season then Brayshaw is talking absolute excrement (as usual) Wells has played close to 50% and he was injured playing football, not skateboarding.

    I would understand the dissapointment from their perspective if he left now, they've been extremely patient with him over a long period of time given his injury history and he's been paid extremely well the entire time, i do think what Brayshaw said was a reflection of that frustration and probably a good indication that Wells is either out the door already or they strongly suspect he will be very soon.

    Bit early, he is still involved in finals if we win this week.

    We could justify that comment in relation to Dawes, but when he did play, Wells' output was at a high level.

    It really was a stupid comment by an outgoing president of a club that is on the nose.

    Sounds like sour grapes to me DC, he has played 19 games this year and when he missed games it was because he got injured playing footy. Lots of players get injured playing footy, do we hear grizzles from GC about O'Meara or Prestia?

    agree, poor form. the sort of comment that can backfire easily, and a president shouldn't get embroiled (at least publicly) with list management.

    And Collingwood - do they have a recruiting strategy in place?

    It seems oddly like their strategy is save Buckleys career - which could end up going horribly wrong. Fingers crossed! ;)

  • Quote

    I think the pies contracted him for one year too many. They are going after experience to try and crack finals next season.

    Buckley needs a top 8 appearance in 2017 if he wants to keep his job. Wells, Mayne and allegedly Rockliff could elevate the pies to play finals.

    Amazed Wells got 3 years.....

    As Damien Barrett said about us, it seems completely scattergun. Seems like they hear a name bought up and just go for it.

    I don't mind it actually. If his body holds up $600k is a good price and that money was probably going to be spent on Dane Swan who was already cooked prior to destroying his ankle. Getting rid of Cloke will free up a large chunk of wasted cap space too.

    Mayne at $500k on the other hand appears to be a shocker that I'd say will go down in history alongside the likes of Quentin Lynch and Paul Medhurst.

    I like Mayne…but I like $500k a hell of a lot more.

    I reckon you could throw $600K at just about any young star in the competition and they would seriously consider jumping ship to Collingwood, assuming their own club wasn't coughing up similar cash in the second contract.

    Bizarre going after Mayne and Wells with these prices. Consider that the Tigers secured Prestia for only $150k more, who is substantially younger!

    • GAMEDAY: Western Bulldogs

      It's Game Day and the Demons will be running out on the field with a new Head Coach, albeit a caretaker, for the first time in 3,060 days when they face the Western Bulldogs at the MCG today. What do you want to see from the Demons in the first match of the Post Simon Goodwin era?

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?
