Doubt his manager is flying over to not sign. Just maybe everyone is excited over the length of the contract.

 

Who’s his manager, big Phil Scully.

That’s it the 50 minute bus trip to The Cattery 😉

Or a ferry ride across the bay if you are big Maxy!

 

Makes me nervous when I listen to the radio & they talk about Luke and they say the footy talk is he's going. 

Please Luke stay

Talk is cheap


Pretty sure he’s going to stay after he gets this picture I drew him and also the 50 cent sealer I put in with it.

All based on the fact he hasn't signed yet.

Smoke and mirrors. He will sign 3-4 years. The one I am a little concerned about is Clarry only signing on for another 2. I have said it before I would have signed him on for the time that we signed Viney on for and signed Viney on for 2.

its all good we got clarry locked away now. Now for Lukes Signature till 2040 and we can all relax a little bit

A no risk position for the media to say he is gone. Generates interest, and If he stays they can just say they were right at the time, but he changed his mind late.

Journos go with it so on the odd occasion they are right, they can say they were first to go with it.

Let's hope he doesn't hit the green option and mucks the signature!

Jarrod Witts has 2 years left on a contract. Would be a great handover from Max to him. 
not sure of chance to get before contract ends but

Witts is the AA ruck this year so far imo

Witts turns 30 in September, Gawn will still be 30 then.  Why would we be handing from Gawn to Witts?  And other than hitouts, Gawn leads Witts (easily) in just about every other measurable stat for the season. Assuming Max doesn't miss more than a couple of games he's the AA ruck again.

Green was always a last resort!!

There was a guy I worked with back in the 90’s at ABC who only wrote in Green Pen!

Oh right. Didn’t think Witts was that old

Why?

They are a manufactured team with no history, hardly any supporters and the supporters of other clubs couldn’t give a stuff about them. The AFL has gifted them a really good list, a couple of times, but we got nothing when we were struggling. So for the sake of TV rights they have done whatever they could to give them success 

As a Melbourne supporter, why is is important they are a contender?

Would you be happy to see them beat us in a GF.

 

We got support- got priority picks, even 'tanked' for it, got financial bailouts, got afl support to get Jackson and Roos. stuffed most of that up, but we've got something out of it in the end, and man, doesn't it feel amazing to be able to be on the winners side. So wouldn't it be a good thing to see some lads trying their best, and a coach putting in the ridiculous hard work get some reward? They're are good people trying hard.

Just because you care about Dees doesn't mean you also want others to fail. Speaking on my own behalf at least.

Good points but fairly big $$$ being thrown at rugby states could more equitably used to gold-plate the proposed Hobart stadium. Then you could have Brisbane suns-of-the-royboys.

After last week and yesterday, I’m uppping my offer to $900k over 6 years (total $5.4m).  He’s going to be premier ruckman in the league within 2 years. Maxy can go to full forward and kick 100.

Pondering if the delay in an announcement/signing of contract (whatever it may be) is an orchestrated maneuver, as all parties are part of the payroll/accreditation of the AFL...

The populous are hungry for clarity... 'click' 'click 'click'*

Like Imagining Max as the second ruckman. Like him even more as a KPF. Will prolong his career and would improve our forward line considerably

 

Would be ok with Young being part of the deal if LJ leaves. Dead set gun

  • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

    What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

  • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
