Does Tomlinson want out?

I don't rate him as best 23, but I like him as a solid back up. I'd be giving him a two year deal if one doesn't cut it. But I guess it depends on how the club view the development of Turner and Adams, as well as what happens to Petty.

IIRC Tomlinson looked around last year and there were no (or few but unacceptable) suitors.  I would expect that were he told that he would be likely to play AFL 1sts regularly anywhere else he would grab it.

Thanks for taking over from the esteemed Luci, R&BF.

Sign Lingers this year and next year looks pretty good - Petty and McVee in that order assuming Gawn, May and Viney all sign. Key year for Howes who hopefully keeps progressing.

Hopefully TMac is willing to go one more year too.

Seems we need TMac and Milkshake to sign one more year!

Ben Brown, Tomlinson, Schache, Smith, Tom McDonald 5 possible senior spots plus Farris-White as a rookie are all possible delist/retirements.

That’s 6 talls gone. Not sure there’s much point in keeping Fullarton on the list either if he’s not able to get a game when Max is out. He’s 23 and been in the system a while. 
I’m hoping Tmac will go around again for another year but we have some serious recruiting to do. 

Thanks Red and blue forever, happy that Harrison Petty has re-signed we are going to need his backline skills going into the future.👍👏

 

And more Contract updates!

Obviously we are very happy with what we have seen in the young Windsor, who has been rewarded with a 2 year extension! Screenshot2024-07-23190007.png.68cdea46de481a31a03f050be12789ec.png

Another great signing red and blue forever, getting the ducks lined up for our next run at it.


Reading the contracts does that mean Moniz-Wakefield has to be promoted to the senior list in 2025 or is it now 5 years. I think we need to keep Moniz on the catB rookie list as long as possible if we are to have a draft pick or 2 in the draft. Hard to see Yze on the list as I think we will keep all our catA rookies. Cumming as a free agent and Houston for a future first round pick and 2025 first round pick. I wonder if that's over's what do demonlanders think? Mentha could be a catB rookie also.

 

B: Lever, May, McVee

HB: Cumming, McDonald, Houston

C: Windsor, Rivers, Langdon

HF: Petracca, Petty, Neal-Bullen

F: Fritsch, van Rooyen, Melksham (cata rookie)

FOLL: Gawn, Viney, Pickett

IC: Salem, Oliver, Turner, Chandler, Tholstrup

 

Casey

B: Howes, Adams, Woewodin

HB: Bowey, Hore (cata rookie), Moniz-Wakefield (catb rookie)

C: K.Brown (cata rookie), Sparrow, Billings

HF: Sestan (cata rookie), Jefferson, Spargo

F: McAdam, Kentfield (cata rookie), Fullerton

FOLL: Fort, Laurie, Draft pick round 2

IC: Verrall (cata rookie), Mentha (catb rookie), Draft pick round 3

We will have as little as 1 draft pick if we have to put Moniz-Wakefield on the senior list recruit Cumming, Houston and Fort or any second tier ruckman or as many 5 picks in the draft if we don't recruit anyone in the offseason.

Medical retirement. Brayshaw

Susiension. Delisted. JS29

99.9% guaranteed to retire  Ben Brown

Likely outs. Schache. Hunter.  
Likely to look elsewhere. Tomlinson

6 list spots. Promote Moniz-Wakefield. 

5 list spots most likely   

Likely to retire but not guaranteed.  Melksham (33) TomMcd (32).  Playing ok but don’t want to stretch it too far.  

Need to keep 3 live draft picks. I think 2024 will be a super draft by the way.  

And another of the young guns gets an extension Congrats to our newest Cult (or should that be Kult?) figure :)

Have you factored in bringing in Kentfield in the mid season draft. I assume we will extend him for next year as he a project type of player and would have to have at least one preseason. 
So we could be looking at only 4 list spots unless we trade or payout contracted players  

Also if AMW is promoted off the CatB rookie list doesn’t that mean we have to bring in another CatB this year or can we increase the number of players on the A list?

Anyone listen to Tom Morris on SEN this morn …. insinuation Langdon may consider retiring?! Anyone on here know anything about that? Would be a big loss for us.

at 28 years of age? unlikely, you'd think

Football is a secondary to Langdon, its between him and the rest of his life. I haven't heard anything, I thought the same thing earlier this year that it was odd and I wonder if he is considering retiring early, but yes, huge loss. He could help us out and get a trade and then retire as soon as the paper work is done 🤣

Be interesting to see what they do with Jake Melksham at the end of the year.

You could mount a case to keep him on as depth and experience body, but then may decide to move him on to clear up some list space on our rookie list.

Very interesting few weeks coming up.

I believe he is wanting to go on for another year.


Wahooo red and blue forever, this is the signature that I have been pining for, my family love Ed Langdon.❤️💙

Thanks for updating Lingers, but Moniz and K Brown have both played games this year yet are still on 0 games played, or do you only update this stat at the end of the year. Cheers once again

Is there any way we could include their salary? (Estimated of course)

It would be an interesting exercise to know how much cap space we have.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
