The 2023 Table is updated for:

image.png.32fb827739162f2985c00e1babb94be6.png

  • Games played at start of 2024 season
  • New draftees
    • Caleb Windsor, a three year contract in line with new CBA
    • Koltyn Tholstrup a three year contract in line with the CBA
    • Kynan Brown as an A Rookie on a one year contract
  • Inclusions to be confirmed by the club:
    • Marty Hore as an A rookie (Supplementary List), assume a one year contract
    • Dan Turner on a two year contract
    • Andy Moniz-Wakefield rookie contract to be renewed

Therefore, there are no more list spots.  We have kept the 36/6/2 mix of senior/A rookie/ B rookie mix.

Potential milestones in the H & A season:

  • 50 games
    • Bowey
    • Chandler
  • 100 games
    • Rivers
    • Picket
    • Spargo
  • 200 games
    • Hunter
    • Petracca
    • Tomlinson
    • Viney

Key Senior Player signings for 2024 (imv):

Sparrow and Bowey are the major ones to sign up.  Langdon and Hunter will be re-signed.  Also Adams will likely get another contract as it is rare for recent draftees to not have at least one extension.   But a number of others may be encouraged to look elsewhere (eg Laurie, Schache, Smith and maybe Hunter) or retire (eg Brown, McDonald).

Other notes

I reckon Tholstrup will rapidly become a ‘cult hero’ especially among the young.  He has the swagger and the charisma to draw the crowds!!!  Looks like a fun loving kid.

For any contract changes from the club or posters during the off season I will update them all together in March.

Fritsch won’t be 31 at the end of his contract 

Thank you all and others for your for support, it is much appreciated.

In the Chart I've added the Dees 2024 draft picks and made the corrections suggested.

 

I welcome further corrections or new player contract info and I'll make the changes in March as after today, I am giving myself a holiday from D'land for the off-season.

Thanks LH greatly appreciated I assure you, just noticed McAdam think he will be 30 end of 2025. Have a great break and look forward to any changes in March.👍💕

We definitely have a premiership list. Just hope we have better luck with injuries and the players keep their heads screwed on tight.

Dees can beat any side in the comp.

We had a mangled VFL standard forward line in the 2023 finals yet lost by only 7 and 2 points to the eventual premiers and bluebaggers.

Sickening stuff.

Thanks Lucifer for all the work.  Don't know if its my system but all the previous pages appear to have disappeared.

Thanks stinga!

By previous pages I assume you mean the 2023 Contracts Thread?  To locate it go back to my first post of this thread.  At the bottom of that post is a link (in the form of an image) to the 2023 thread.  Just click on the image and it will take  you to the thread.

Just for you 😊I have updated McAdam before signing off!

He has a 3 year contract expiring in 2026 so I have changed his age to 31.

The fact the club haven't formally announced the extension of AMW and the upgrade of Turner despite both players having known for some 5 weeks is big communication fail that we frankly deserve much better than.

Totally agree Dannyz every player deserves their time in the sunshine and due recognition. Also supporters need to be informed, the club can’t assume that we are all as informed as us Demonlanders are or as my old boss used to say assume makes an [censored] of you and me.!!

This is my last demonland post. 

As we all know demonland can be wonderfully addictive!  But I've decide to reduce my use of on-line forums, social media and Apps. 

Can't tell you how much I've enjoyed my time on here over the years.  Thanks to everyone for your debate, support, laughs and banter, especially those I've got to know through messenger.

Wishing you all the very best.  Travel well, demonlanders.

To a 2024 Flag 🥂

Cheers,

Luci

 

Edit:  I've sent a copy of the Contracts Excel worksheet to Andy.  If anyone would like to volunteer to continue with it I'm sure he and demonlander's would apperciate it.  It is very easy to maintain; it is but a simple table.

Can’t you just take a break???? It doesn’t have to be forever. You KNOW you’ll miss us… eventually. And we’ll miss you - very much. 😢

edit: sorry M, that was spoilt brat me. Of course we should respect your decision to leave, as sad as that is. Thank you for your endlessly entertaining and informative posts. You’re one in a million. 💖

That is disappointing Luci as you have been a very good contributor to DL.

Hope you have a change of heart ,but in the meantime thanks for your posts and keep well.

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
