    What a load of waffle 

    Waffle, ill-informed comment, stereotyping, venomous accusations, misleading statements, bull-baiting and hysterical fictionalism is the glue that binds 'Land together.

    Thanks Dazzle. That's exactly the kind of injection this thread needed.

    Kind of strange reporting from Tom Browne - he says that Alan Richardson is confident of a deal being reached soon, but then seems to imply that he knows more information and that Richo and the club have got that wrong. Surely the club would be well aware of where the talks currently stand?

    If Jackson did sign through to free agency like he said, then it would be a 5 year deal and a fantastic result.

    I want Jackson and Oliver for life! Tracc is signed for a long time! Anyone else is next level down, so not as much concerned.

    They may be next level down now Picket, but perhaps not in 2-5 years.

    Not applicable to Jacko but Trac and Clarry are hitting their straps after a few years in the system. We have a number of kids that have heaps of talent and could be great players in a few years. 

    Concern yourself with the present but always with an eye to the future.

    Clarry hit his straps with his first game at the club & has been a star ever since

    3 time b&f,  2021Coaches player of the year etc etc & he’s only 24

    Get him signed for the next 6 years

    Yeah... I have heard that it will be 2 years but I also heard a conflicting version that it will be longer.... possibly 4 years. 

    Not sure what to believe. 

    I'd like to believe 4, so 4 it is. Thank you mate. 🤣

    Would be quite happy to offer Clarry 7-8 years to take him to 32 or so.

    ....and the reason it will be mid-year because that is when the new AFLPA bargaining agreement is expected to be signed.  At the moment Clubs and players don't know how much money is in the pot. 

    It has to be signed sometime between June and end of October.  Once it is then the pie can be divvied up.

    It could also be from the club's end. It's best to wait for all parties, then we know how much to pay you.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

      Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
