    The MFC could lose big if Big Ben cuts the locks, imagine the sales of Wigs around the ground and the Demon shop could be a real money spinner.

    On the topic, Brown will announce his choice to join The Demons sometime in next 24hrs. A massive win for the club and the third main target landed in 3 years. This is significant and most have no idea just how much this helps drive the new game plan 

     

    Cannot wait to see big #50 leading hard in 2021!!!

    Cheers.

    I'm struggling to think of anything less important than how Ben Brown chooses to wear his hair.

    His long run up perhaps

    seems to really offend a lot of posters for some never explained reason.

    Well they’re dreaming. Future 2nd most likely unless we get a 25-30 pick for Pruess or Hannan deals

    Can’t mark contested?

    I think you’ll find these video rewarding fellow demonlanders (especially throwing Oscar around in 2018 ?)

    If its true hes getting a 5 year deal at 550k per year thats a bargain despite the contract length.

    Turns out to be roughly the same contract he was after at North 4 years @ 750k a year = 3 mil. MFC 5 years @ 550k a year = 2.75 mil, 50k per season less from the impact of covid.

    Looks like the strength of the extra 2 years on lower cash has got Big Ben over the line, very shrewd business by the Dees.

    Worth noting that Jarrad Waite played the best footy of his career when he was the second tall in the forwardline with Brown (despite being in his mid 30's at that point). It cannot be overstated how much this will help Weideman.

    That's probably what he's worth if North didn't play this so badly. They are getting shafted big time. A Coleman medalist in his prime for a second rounder is daylight robbery. Couldn't be happier!

    His mobility/agility is better than I remembered. Some of those snaps where he gathered the loose ground balls were impressive.

    Just received word Brown’s better than a 50/90 chance of coming. 

    50/90 is not good odds IMO

    Care  to elaborate Ad.

    50/90 is a little optimistic in my opinion. I’ve heard it’s closer to 55%.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
