It is somewhat surprising what the auto censor will and won't allow through.

Ok. Thought it was both knees. Still a worry & to be shipping out our best defender this year is a Huge gamble, but it’s done now, so we all have to observe and hope it rolls. 

The Forward line... will it work next year?

it’s almost toss a coon....

coin?

I guess we need to bookend this affair. 

 Frosty in the poos and wees. 

 

Still don’t think we should have let him go. Lever and may seem to he injury prone and then there’s Omac. Omg help us.

Well Max will certainly miss Frosty. I still think we will regret getting rid of him.

This is going to bite us on the bum- like when we let Howe go - the Collingwood coaches turned him into a star

Let’s wait and see what happens at Hawthorn but at the moment it just seems like a dumb decision. And if Frost does well at Hawthorn it will be a poor reflection on our coaches and footy dept. Very disappointing.

Uhm no chit the hawks coach will love the challenge, just like Goody would have. You can’t put a harness on a greyhound. So the plan is to turn Frost into a 1 on 1 shut down defender who does nothing else. Strike me pink, innovation!!!!

Ps good to see all the “likes” on Saty’s “gag”.

I can’t see the upside in trading Frost. Would love to hear the club’s rationale behind it.

We barely got anything for him in return aside from a future second rounder in a hopelessly compromised draft, and our defensive stocks just got weaker.

Clearly the club hasn’t learnt it’s lesson that you have to have rock solid depth in your key position stocks. They found out the hard way as a consequence of exiting Hogan and Pedo in the one hit - result was Melksham as our sole key forward in a home and away game.

Now we’re doing the same to our defence. Robbing ourselves of an integral part of our defensive stocks while relying on injury prone players to hold it together.

I predict that Clarkson's top up strategy will fail, he won't win another flag at Hawthorn and he won't be coaching there in 2023 after the end of his current contract.

I'll even double down and predict that Goodwin will coach MFC to a flag.

Bookmark it.

I'm OK with this trade: my sentiment is that he'll be worth more to Hawthorn than to Melbourne.  In other words, Melbourne attained more value from trading him than holding on to him.

To start with, the balance of probabilities suggests that Frosty's value has peaked and now was the perfect time to offload him and for Melbourne to attain maximum trade value.

Let's assume that the injury gods smile upon us next season and May and Lever play most games.  This would possibly mean that Frosty spends quite a few games playing for Casey.  In this scenario, he'd have almost no trade value.

Maybe the injury gods will spoil us again, but you tend not to win flags by playing conservatively.

My other sentiment is that it's human nature to overvalue what you current possess.  I hope that our list management can overcome this bias and have made a balanced decision, based on a wide range of information.

We let frost go AND 3 draft picks for 2 picks back.

I'd say we rolled over and he had zero trade value.

We will easily cover Frost.  it is no loss at all.

Hawks have lost the plot, their list is a mess full of injury prone has beens. 

Hate to say it but Hawks will win a flag before we do!

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9.
