If it confirmed dump him. Seriously has not learned lessons. There are definite leadership issues at this club

 

Just confirmed then that the AFL is investigating after the MFC reported it to them.

If he can get through another pre-season then he'll be like a new recruit across our half forward line next season.

I'd really think that this is the case - a talent like Harley, once rekindled - is going to come back harder and more resolute than ever. He could very positively assist in the complete transformation of our forward line; in fact, I'd strongly suggest that will be the case. Good china is wrapped well; let's hope that Harley and his recuperation are also well wrapped by the start of the next season.

Maybe that’s where the senior leaders went at 3/4 quarter time yesterday?

So if he’s left the hub (as he’s been told his season is done), and gone out drinking, which would be perfectly acceptable for end of season, how is this a problem?

You buy memberships, attend games, donate money. We have been terrible for 60 years yet we have guys like this carrying on. If it true there should be no second chances. Culture is a big issue at this club

The season not over why is he being let out

Because the whole point of a hub environment is you don't leave the hub then come back in.

His season is over and has been for a few weeks. 

Assuming it’s true, he clearly doesn’t have the professionalism required for AFL footy.

Both parties gave it a shot, we move on.

Even if he was re-signed for a year, I wouldn’t confidently have in our best 22 due to his injury issues.

He can not be this stupid surely Of all the players...

He has form p2j.

1 year contract extension mentioned on Fox. 


If he’s breached the hub rules should not be offered another contract ... ffs how many chances this guy want???

Delisted?

Otherwise it is not a smart choice.

Seems like it may end up being a parting of ways. From what posters have said, the coaches wanted him to find the extra 10% effort and trust his body but Harley just couldn’t do it.

Not sure he will come back from here and it’s an easy out for the club

Ralphy just said on Fox Footy that Melbourne pretty much have a 1 year contract for Bennell

Until the facts come through, hes a [censored] spanner.. 

Have players not learnt anything after the Richmond situation?‍♂️


Didnt he promise the club no drinking in one of the To Hell and Back Eps?  Its just monumentally stupid. How many chances do you want?

If the story is true and he’s breached the COVID rules then his career is over.

  • PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

  • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

  • PREGAME: Collingwood

    The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
