Do you like him.?

What is your opinion, do you think we should try and get him?

Do you think he would be in our best 22?

Do you think we could let Garland go if we got Lever?

Do you think he would wear number 6 if he came to us?

Lever has met with both Melbourne and Collingwood.

One meeting went very well. The other didn't.

Collingwood must have jokingly assigned him a lousy animal nickname..

You'd think you wouldn't have to compare the two clubs for long to realise which is the better ship to jump on haha

Personally i liked my defenders to spoil the ball at least 36.2 metres. Kill that ball. Let it come back from the grave. Then kill it again. Now that's insane.

My mail is that this is as close to a done deal as is possible at this point on the calendar. 

Good news!

Any idea what the trade might be?

Garland to the Pies

Pendlebury to the Crows

Lever to Melbourne.

Dunn deal.

I wonder if we would even have this thread, if our idiot recruiting manager Prendergast, had taken Talia as everybody expected, instead of Jordan Gysberts, in a mind boggling, stupid pick, of Cook and Toumpas proportions. ( Yes I know he didn't pick Toumpas ).

Oh and BTW, I am positive if he had, we could  guarantee that we would have played finals this year, as he would have stopped at least two goals, that we allowed this season, if not have won us a close game outright.

Thanks Barry, you butchered this club.

But we wouldn't have been as bad as we were and would have been middle of the road quicker, hence missing out on Trac and Clarrie.

I have a view Red that everything in life happens for a reason. Sometimes it takes a long time to see the silver lining/positive 

Eg:2001 Hawks were a decent side if yhey take Judd who was an instant impact they don't bottom out in 02/03 and commence the full 04 rebuild. Meaning no Roughy Franklin and Lewis

Wow, very specific scapegoating/crystal balling there - impressive!

they were SUCH horrible years. Ive often wondered if Prendergast really was the magnitude of the stupid F@ck he looks like or he had some other stupd F@ck telling him to pick a certain type of player ie someone higher up and more stupid absolutely misread the way the game was going. in other words did he plot to kill the club alone or was there a group of them? Anyway...no point dwelling on the past. We're sooo close to living in happy times,

Interestingly I have also read this somewhere as well. And unfortunately I heard it was us that didn't go down well..

Hope it's not true??

Collingwood supporters seem to be saying that quite a lot, I hadn't taken much notice because they're deluded

Funny how we all assume it must be our meeting that went well, because Collingwood.

So Pennant are you saying that if we win a flag Prendergast will indeed be the architect of our success because without him we wouldn't have accumulated the talent we now have? That will conflict poor old Red!

And on another note, those with supposed inside information on Lever beware if you are wrong.  I will personally hunt you down and punish you appropriately for your sins (calling BBO).  Alternatively if you are right you are welcome to drop by Chateau Vogon and collect an appropriate bottle of red for your troubles. Vogon red, unlike our poetry, is quite good.

Note:  This offer is now closed to any "Jonny come latelies"

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

  • FEATURE: 1925

    A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
