No doubt Chook's post is a reference to Cerra and he has a proven track record of receiving reliable mail.

If you want to go searching for alternative meanings, of  course it could also apply to our Grand Final celebrations with Frankie Valli up on stage singing "Oh what a night, late September 2021".

I really enjoy coming to this thread occassionally for entertainment to help me last through until next Saturday.  In previous years I would have been visiting 2 - 3 times a day to find the next magic selection that is going to propel the Dees to the Grand Final.

For once the banter rather than the information is most appreciated.  Keep it coming

I just don’t get the Angus talk.  Deeply invested, about to enter a dynasty type window, plays a critical role in a way no-one else in the comp does it.  Gets to be smart, tough, effective and lead every game, stats count regardless.

he is worth way more to us than Cerra.  If we get a pure wingman, he gets more centre rotations.  But atm he plays about 80-100% game time.  
 

he is an absolute keeper for me.

Langdon and Gus will remain our wingers. If Cerra comes he'll be part of our midfield rotation to add more polish in there.

Jordan Clark, who is contracted at Geelong for 2022, has met with Dockers coach Justin Longmuir and other club officials in Perth and is one step closer to requesting a trade to Fremantle.

I'm really looking forward to Geelong going all out trying to win a flag, falling short and losing all their young players due to lack of opportunity

Surely they would know that their window has just been slammed shut.

But yeah, if they are that delusional, fantastic. let them burn up all of their draft picks on old talent from other clubs and continue to [censored] away their future.

He will be 33 by about the 3rd game next year.

Should have gone down the highway to KP.

Sam Edmunds starting to get on board with Cerra to the Dees.

"I struggle to see how Melbourne would go to the trouble of being the only other club to compete with Carlton for his services if they didn’t have a plan in place or a possibility of getting the deal done. When you look at it, it has to involve a player.”

“Clearly Adam Cerra believes it’s possible because he hasn’t said ‘I’m definitely going to Carlton'".

In Taylor we trust - but please not at the expense of the culture and cameraderie of the group. (a la Woey)

Looking at recent history (Lever, Langdon and possibly May) they were all discussed as having been in the Dees sights for years prior to coming over.

This is starting to smell like we've been into Cerra for longer than we are letting on. If we can fit him in the salary cap it makes sense that our list management team has been involved for quite a while.

Not really relevant to MFC trades, but i have heard from someone i trust that Chris Scott is strongly considering walking away from coaching at the end of his current contract, 

I think now is a good time for the MFC to go hard at a couple of Cats vets with the lure of a flag

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.
