Farewell Sam Frost

Demon Forever
in Melbourne Demons

Dollars and term of contract... the curse of a 10-22 ranked player hitting form at signing time .. we know it well.

His worth probably increased 100k per season in 2019.

At least if he goes to Hawthorn they will have to trade unlike us for Langdon.

Second rounder or player if he has to go.

    I really do not want to trade him. He's a unique asset and came a long way in 2019, BUT would we consider Frost for Isaac Smith?

    (Not saying I want that, just wondering what the club would be looking at)

    Melbourne have not made a formal offer to Frost. Interesting...

    Classic Melbourne.

    Frost is no super star but at least we gets on the park each week and provides us with some run and dash which we severely lack.

    Frosty and Langdon are OOC so both clubs need to trade...are you thinking of Tomlinson who is an RFA.

    I see Hawthorn reckon they haven't met him. Must have just been at Waverley buying a milkshake or something ?

    Sounds like we are still keen to sign him going by this quote:

    “When contacted by The Age, Frost's manager Anthony McConville said he was yet to receive a formal contract offer from Melbourne, but he was confident the two parties were having positive discussions.

    "He's been told he's a required player at Melbourne," McConville said”

    we are 17 so only GC can trump us for Langdon

    He just puts his price out there. Freo can have some steak knives if need be. Stretch/JKH or similar.

    Hawks could get trumped by 8 odd clubs for Frost.. very different

    I'm a bit confused Diamond_Jim.  Do you mean, in theory, we could get Langdon in the pre-season draft...

    yep... he would be an unsigned player

    I suspect the GCS would jump at him unfortunately.

    Just read the article.

    It really is a bit of a nothing article. Just mention that hawks havent even met up with him and dees yet to put in a formal offer.

    that's where we need to chat with GCS. Wouldn't be the first time a player got to the club he wanted.

    They will also have salary cap constraints and it can comedown to a bluffing game.

    Bottom line is that we have to play serious hardball with freo and any talk of our second rounder (almost a first) is way way too high.

    He's the one who wrote the article in The Age.

    Imagine this team with no Frosty. About the only player we have with a bit of X factor about him and who i look forward to watching now.  Heart in mouth stuff but at least he makes it interesting.

    Sounds like a fishing expedition by Mr McConville to see who comes sniffing around, or to make someone panic and throw themselves on the hook

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

      The Demons come face to face with St. Kilda for the second time this season for their return clash at Marvel Stadium on Sunday. Who comes in and who goes out?
