What about this guy...

 

 

He’s the one I’d be after if there’s even a sniff that he’d want to return home to Victoria 

Offer him Trac’s contract if need be (too soon?)

Should've just drafted him in the first place. Him and Anderson were always going to wind up the best players from that draft.

It’s either Andy Brayshaw now or we’ll wait for next year (at a minimum).

No way we move him for picks. 


I received the following intel from a source close to the club but wished to remain anonymous due to the sensitive nature of the matter

If Fremantle’s Hayden Young does ask the Dockers for a trade, it’s understood he wants to play for Melbourne. 

The Demons are fully aware of Young's desire to join them in the event he chooses to leave Fremantle. 
 

pass it on...

Who cares what Dane Swann thought of Pert? Has no bearing on anything. Just peddling scuttlebutt.

Sure thing champ. 
 

Playing group who played under CEO for almost a decade has an opinion on his leadership. Somehow that’s relevant because of…reasons?

That Swan and whoever anonymous else at Collingwood allegedly  didn't like Pert several years ago isn't relevant. As said. Champ.

He’s been in AFL management for 17 years. Somehow the playing groups opinion of his performance for the majority of that career (~10 years) isn’t relevant. 
 

Make that make sense.

Is that for real or just a swipe at how the media creates something out of nothing by starting a completely unfounded rumour?

Swipe at how rumours pass as news these days

What a perfect year of AFL football. There has never been a football of AFL like this football year of AFL. 

Yikes… coming from his management

Hard not to see this happening if he’s still keen on a move come the trade period and we get a strong offer from Freo or WC


Get the feeling this is his management leveraging the current situation for a contract renegotiation.

Wtf is all this BS.

So the man extends contract two months ago and now he wants to leave.

Amateur hour AFL, only here this could happen. Well maybe in the NBA too.

Is that even legal/ethic?

Why not? If Petracca goes there will be a 1m+ hole in the cap to be filled.

Viney leveraged an offer from North to get an extension with us only a couple of weeks ago.

One thing is to have a third party spreading rumours. But to have your own reps to go and offer your services to a rival club while under contract?

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
