    Posters on here talk about Josh Kelly as though if North don’t get him he’s as good as coming to Melbourne. In reality we’d just be one of about ten suitors throwing cash at him. It’s a long shot.

    I don't think we will be chasing Kelly...let someone else pay way overs for him.

    We have a couple of our own we will need to secure in the next couple of seasons.

    Gaff turning down a massive deal from North as another “big fish” says no to them is almost as good as us landing someone we wanted ?. Their war chest doesn’t seem to be worth as much as they hoped!

    It was interesting to read one of Tim Gossage’s tweets. He said he had contact with a few WCE players and they were all blown away but pumped Gaff stayed. The players he spoke to thought he was leaving.

    Has anyone seen Deryn, since the Prelim Final over in Perth ?

    Parliament is starting to become concerned.

    So if a club has to pay to the cap, what does North do with all the cash? Secret Santa with the current list? They have been putting aside dollars for years now, how do they spend it?

    Front loading existing  contracts to Goldstein, Cunnington, Brown, Tarrant, Higgins,  Waite.

    That's also probably part of the way they sell their mega offers to other players to their existing list.  Look here's half your pay for the next 4 years so we can afford this.

    If they can't swing a Gaff replacement  this year they'll front load Polec to the max next year.

    It only works for so long though.

    Seems a bit hasty. They still managed to finish 9th last year without Gaff.

    You can put a small amount away each year if you don’t spend the full cap.

    WCE will be hard to beat again next year. From the GF bring in Gaff, Naitanui, Sheppard and Tim Kelly....that's a serious side.

    Yep, and the Norm Smith Medalist finished outside the top 10 in their B&F. Hoping to play them at the G next year for a change. Was the last time in 2014?

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
