Over many years i have often wondered whether the MFC has actually wanted to chase success...

decisions like passing on Wines when his FIRST GAME against us was BOG keep the theory alive sadly.

quite agree about 2013

i blame prodee for that, he was the chief cheerleader for the classy outside mid

IF IF IF IF IF!!

IF we picked up Ollie, who know we may have won a few more and missed on Clarrie?

Too many IFs.  

IF we picked Dusty, Buddy etc etc.  

Water under the bridge.  

 

Second efforts are pretty essential in football. Why not in recruiting?

Wow, so does that mean there will be a lot of players pushed out of PA given how much they spent on their new players  (ie Watts, Rocky, Motlop), with a 4 year deal to Wines added to this?

Yikes! Corporate memory! You remember back that far or was it just an inordinately bad call and will go down in history

Wingard might be worth looking at

Good on him for signing a new deal.  Always like seeing players show loyalty to the club that drafted him.

I hope he also looks forward to have Clayton Oliver crap all over him on Friday night as well.

Dees were circling with big offers apparently, I wonder who was on the table?

Source?

I think I heard "Melbourne offers" not "Melbourne's offer".


He can still ask for a trade if it doesn’t work out or gets [censored] off for some reason.

Don’t let go of the dream peeps.

See my post earlier, Tom Rehn reported Dees were circling

Is that what Rehn actually said?  All I got was that we were 'rumoured' to be interested, nothing about big offers being tabled.

Tom Rehn on SEN said Dees were circling at around 4pm today

As for big offers perhaps I misread Jon Ralph post, however you’d be certain it wouldn’t be small if anyone was trying to entice him anyway

When was the last time Rehn got something right?

How he gets airtime on SEN is beyond me.  That said, he's not on his own.

  • 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.
