Only offical source I can find on the web is Big Footy but word is the Wiz was locked up last night after a night club incident in Northbridge. Freo FC has responded by suspending him until round 12.

Interesting if this spells the end of the wiz at Freo. You would have to wonder if he will walk or ask to be traded at the end of the year. He has never really seemed settled since returning home.

Just wondering if Demonlanders would give his return to the Dees the thumbs up? If we could get him cheap, does anyone think he could offer something or should the only way we should be looking is to the future, not the past.

    I think its in the past personally and although hes a good player, i wouldnt be porepared to give much up 4 him. If we could pick him up for pick 80'ish (like rodan to port) i would but he is too good a player for that. Freo would NEVER agree to that

    I have a soft spot for him still, but the reality of the situation is, that he is unstable and comes with a hell of a lot of baggage.

    We took the risk with Byron because he's a proven premiership player. Wiz is hot and cold, and mostly insane.

    At least Freo is actually willing to punish its players for acting like morons, unlike their Western Australian partners.

    He's killing Chris Connolly's career.

    Great. What magic.

    One cant get the ball, one is too fat to play and the other is in a lock up far far away.

    Would not touch him with an 80ft barge pole.

    He was high maintenance at MFC and has not matured one iota since. A nasty and unreliable character both on and off the field.

    He walked on MFC once and I dont want him back.

    We have enough senior player who exhibit little to a positive team culture. We dont need a society misfit who would destroy it.

    I said it when he left, he will be no good over there, too many distractions, anyway I don't care what he does with himself now

    The Wiz actually wasn't too much of a problem child whilst at Melbourne (did have some injury problems though). I believe he was warned by those who would know in the FD that it was not in his best interests to return to WA and they have been proved right.

    Having said that he was terribly inconsistent and he won't return to the MFC list.

    I'd rather a CAC pick in the 80s than a player (albeit a pretty talented one) like Farmer who's going to give us very little during rebuilding years then retire.

    Next.

    despite all ur words of wisdom rhino ....

    fact is he kicked 55 goals last year as a small forward... the second best of his career.....

    pretty good for a fat man.

    doubt he will come back to melbourne.... but still a great player..

    BB,

    Just a hint....Farmer is the one in the lock up. :blink:

    He is a talented but flawed player. He is not a great player.

    Whatever he gives via his 55 goals he takes back with his tragic on field antics and off field problems.

    I would not be so sure about that. <_<

    Even though The Wiz is The Wiz we really don't need him at Melbourne anymore. We have Aaron Davey for crying out loud, he is doing the job that Farmer did + 100000

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
