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).

    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

    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.

    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.

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.
