I reckon the general board would light up with a topic like that.

Tell us how much you would keep if the world was offered to you.

I'm happy with $100k p.a. No one needs more than that, unless they're supporting multiple people.

Brandon Ellis comes from a family that battled and had little. His story is well known to Tigers supporters. He has provided for his mum and siblings for years. Not an elite player by any means.

Yes it is.. but he is potentially about to be a duel premiership player. He done something that everyone dreams off. Off to the GC to start his retirement fund and a cruisy lifestyle.  ???

Set to join Gold Coast after the GF for 5 years at 600k a season. Too good to knock back IMO, take the money and run Brandon.

A $3million smile.

PS. Tigers laughing at the compo pick they are going to get.

Lynch and then pick 20 approx for losing Ellis who they didn’t want to keep.

Gotta love equalisation AFL style.

Pick 39 actually. And Richmond wanted to keep him, but as a free agent they couldn't afford his asking price and years.

Did they get pick 39? That is much fairer.

Yes. He gave Richmond very good service and was a worthwhile contributor to 2 flags. That should just about be enough.

Free agent = win

His disposal = averge

His contested ball use = atrocious 

21.5 disp per game @ 77% this season

6.5 contested possessions average this season

3.7 turnovers average & 2.5 tackles

not bad but not worth $3m over 5 years.....

Good luck to him. He deserves a payday, might now be able to buy his missus a bra, shirt and pants.

Another trade broken, notch that up as another exclusive DL. #ETthetradebreaker.

I just wonder did the mfc demand the afl explain as tigers did with Ellis compensation. Tigers have won 2 flags yet they are fighting for the best deal.. does the mfc?

You have absolutely no idea what our club negotiated with the AFL Commission a few weeks ago.

Be a little more logical and have a think about why we might have gone quiet RE: GCS' priority pick.

Im not trying to be smart, but do you actually think the AFL care what the clubs have to say?

Last I heard from the AFL (about club land) the coaches were killing the game.

Let alone a minor club like ours - would jumping up and down make u feel better?

Just asking the question are we fighting as club to ensure the best deal?

The OP is definitely implying both cases are the same, yet one is draft assistance and the other is FA compensation. It's not apples with apples.

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
