    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.

    I don’t want to get all biblical here, but is there a risk that his power will be lost if he loses his hair?

    Might turn into Omac?

    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!!!

    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? 
    Doesn’t pressure?

    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%.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
