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.

Clarko got the best out of Tyrone Vickory. 

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".

You missed the air quotes around “”improved””... as in he hasn’t. Hello McFly!!

?


 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: 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.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
