I just thought the Frawley link was to obvious and had been mentioned before. 

Impey and Wingard have “improved” out of sight as players as well. Win some, you lose some, the Hawks player development is the big difference compared to the Dees.

Wingard has improved??? What games have you watched

    When Wingard’s current contract expires I can’t see him being offered another one.

    Wingard won’t get another contract once his current one is up. 

    The Hawks give these players 2 years. Some stick around, the others are let go. But they are always looking. 

    After yesterday Hardwick will do similar, one spot on the list is all you need.

    That's a low bar to set!

    It's the Hawks system that is what's so good. 

    Their development is overrated.

    Sure, they developed Hodge, Franklin, Roughead, Mitchell and Lewis, but IMO that's more about system.

    And all the FAs and trades they've brought in for quite some time have been role players who have fitted into a system.

    They don't have enough guns now, so their system doesn't stand up like it once did.

    Surely... surely you aren't serious.

    We do need an irony font.

    But seriously, why would a person leaving be placed in such a representative position.

    i reckon it could be an indicator that he stays.

    Personally I don't care that much. The whole squad needs a real change of attitude  and approach. None of them should be looking at wage increases until they win a flag. I don't know how popular most of our players would be to any other club they have proven nothing. Every one has potential but few have shown it consistently.

    Clarkson ain’t Stupid. 

    The Jury is still out at Melbourne 

    Clarkson may not be stupid but he does make mistakes. Frosty would make a great forward in rugger, with his build and speed.

    Pros

    He is tall, super quick and durable.

    Cons

    His marking, kicking and positioning are inconsistent. He has yet to show that he can play as a genuine key defender.

    How much of salary cap do we pay?

    I heard announced on SEN Langdon and Tomlinson IN and Frost OUT.  Is this not the case?

    I don't think that's been officially confirmed, but it looks as though this will be the likely outcome when all is said and done.

    So between rounds 1-8 in the Best and Fairest count Frost isn't even in the top 10. Bloke by the name of Marty Hore is currently sitting 7th.

    Primw example of what the coaches think of him. I'd rather keep him if we could, but he's no big loss if he leaves.

    Frosty's middle name/s is/are "dances to the beat of his own drum".

     Not happy! Whatever we get won’t be worth what we are giving up unless there is a player swap that hasn’t been talked about so far.

    Just reported on 7 he has requested a trade to Dorkthorn

    Should we have a look at Dougal Howard from Port as replacement?

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
