Lamby feeling a touch generous with contract lengths or just a refection of the trade market...?

    Seems the club have employed a work experience kid for socials!

    Good to have lingers hanging around though.

    Stoked to have him sign on.  He's been a terrific player for us.

    Don't all the players hate Goody though?

    As much criticism as Lamb has gotten in recent weeks (much of it deserved), one thing he has done a great job of in his tenure is signing up all of our important players (Jackson excepted, not on Lamb though)

    Excited to see Ed running up and down the Shane Warn wing for many more years to come!

    Lingers! The best winger in the game. 

    Love the 4 years. The guy is a freak and will be 32 by his final year of contract. No problem with that at all. He may even get another contract or two after that.

    Well done, Tim Lamb.

    You don’t think the fittest man in football can play another 4 seasons?

    His agent owes us a favour!! That is a long contract.

    I reckon he can run until 2048.

    Of course the one day I raise concerns around when he would sign his contract they... announce his contract signing 🙄

    Great to have him on board!

    Another great thing about this re-signing is Windsor has a wing partner for the next 4 years and we can really plan around that.

    Brilliant.

    4 years = less money than say 3 years. 
    Smart list move to keep cap space to lure free agents etc. 

    Langdon is only 28. It’s a no brainer to give him 4 years. At worst he will be a very good depth player at 32. Everyone crying about our lack of depth but also don’t want to sign anyone for longer than 2 years.

    Great news. 4 years seems about right to me.
    Say we play on average 25 games a season that’s  100 games and 1600km for the running machine.

    Excellent re-signing on the back of a rebound to form season.

    Would’ve been shocked had he looked elsewhere given we let him go to his sisters’s wedding overseas (which was the right to do by the way)

    So about $1,500 per kilometre roughly?

    D’ya reckon Caleb will stay on the wing long term? I think it’ll be interesting to see what the plan is.

    Nope, I think he'll move between wing, half back and midfield, but having Lingers signed up means one wing is sorted and maybe there's another wing for Howes or even Woey...

    Agree. I think he’ll be our Josh Kelly.

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
