To...us?

We have definitely put our best foot forward with this one. I think it's GWS, Adelaide and then us (without really knowing).

What's your gut feel?

I think you're right.

Very well played by Peatling's management, he'll get his bag.

They’ve played a blinded

 

About a month ago he was staying put on a 2/3 year deal 

Looks like we're out of the picture

Surprise surprise, players don't want to come into a burning building. 


I'm sure some Demonlanders will blame Pert.

With Peatling out of the equation, let's hope we keep all our current and future 1st and 2nd round draft picks, and have a mini rebuild.

Plus the media don't want us getting anyone good. Only their teams.

If the Crows don't land him, they might double-down on Clarry, which gives us better leverage if that's the way it goes.

Did we offer him the best contract?

Might be a question for @Dannyz

So you don’t know.

But you’re comfortable stating that the reason why he’s possibly maybe not coming to Melbourne in a future decision he’s not publicly stated is because our club is ‘a burning building’?

You’re right, it’s possible that another club offered him more money and this is his motivation. 

Doesn’t change the fact that we aren’t exactly an attractive destination to outsiders. Undergoing a review, wanting to offload one of our best players, still need at least two new line coaches, Trac’s saga. It’s not a good look when you’re trying to attract talent. People want a stable work place. 

Listening over lunch break earlier and diagnosis is that Peatling likely to stay at Giants. 4 year deal is a solid win for him and his manager.  Definitely improved this year and his “hard at it “ style warranted others trying to get him.  

Was there an official decision today?

Disappointing that we are not in the race anymore.

Let's hope the draftees want to come here because right now we're about us popular as a blowfly at a butcher's picnic.

Crows bound.

    It’s Game Day and the Demons have made the long trip west to take on Fremantle tonight at Optus Stadium. Can Melbourne make it two from two to start the season, and what are you hoping to see from the Dees under the lights in Perth?

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

  • NON-MFC: Round 02

    The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?
