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 

as for now......even if he wanted to, we were never in the race with nothing to trade

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.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • 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.
