All the best to your future endeavors fellas. Like to endorse the above appreciation for your time and service with the Melbourne Football Club. Cheers!

To both. AFL is a tough gig these days. Talent alone doesn't necassarily get you very far.

 


To play for 3 AFL Clubs means he deff had the talent

All the best

Nine years on AFL lists is pretty impressive, even if his career didn't reach great heights. I still don't know what we were expecting from him this year.

Selecting him over Grundy during the finals was criminal by those involved

Grundy asked not to be selcted. He was out the door

Sad that it didn’t work out for Josh and for us, but it didn’t. 
 

Does that mean that FullArton will get another year (maybe he does anyway but I am unsure of his contract status)?

Yep, he's got another year to go for his contract.

3 AFL Clubs so clearly very close. Thank you Josh, I had high hopes we could help unlock what was needed for you to be a regular contributor. Best of luck in your future endeavours.

No the worst mistake was not using Schacky from about 5 mins. Before 3/4 time instead of Tmac. 

The use of the Sub rule even in the GF in 2021 was sad ( like Heppell’s goodbyes at Marvel)  and Simon has not improved in 3 years further. In fact it needs a Royal Commission!!!

Having the all of around five gamer Laurie as the sub when Gus went down wasn't exactly a great move.

The bloke had zero experience but chosen for a final.  Still boggles the mind.

Not sure what Goody was thinking then.

That was when only medical subs could be used. Harmsey tried to fake an injury to get Jordan on. Should have tried harder.

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
