    http://www.heraldsun.news.com.au/footy/com...5E20322,00.html Thank God for that. Who else would my 2 1/2 year old get to support??? :)

    a natural consequence from Judd refection of MFC?? Maybe a part of a multi club deal if Judd chose MFC is only reason for not concluding until day of B & F.

    Welcome "back" from the brink Robbo

    Please tell me its a 2 year deal

    If it's 2 years, good, if 3 years, bad.

    Well, with Jimmy Clement retiring at least we know Robbo is a good chance to kick a bag of goals in the "grudge match of the year" on QBD. Good to have you back in the fold Robbo.

    Yep so loyal that he flirts with other teams when he doesn't get what he wants. :wacko:

    Don't care if it's a 7 year deal, it's a good reason to smile... I get to see my favourite Demon finish his career at the club that he loves.

    You can bet that Robbo wasn't chasing better facilities, and he would never walk out on our club. It's good to know that both parties agreed on a deal.

    Pity, I was hoping he'd go.

    I'm very pleased he's staying. The forwardline would have been a comedy act without him. It would have been tough seeing him run around in another club's colours.

    How can you say that with a straight face Jaded? I don't care that Judd didn't choose us, you can't control that, you just move on, but I'll be absolutely furious if Robbo got anything more than two years. I hope Bailey is good with teaching old dogs, because Robbo certainly needs to learn some new tricks.

    if Robbo had gone, I feel we would have lost a lot of club culture - heis a mainstay at MFC - his 10 year membership and speech last year was inspirational, as was Ooze a couple of years before that.

    I reckon it was more important to keep Robbo than get Judd - Judd would have cost heaps, and a few players might have been put out -.

    Let's hope the rot ends soon about trading Frawley or Petterd - we need them too.

    Look, of course I hope it's a 2 year deal, and as I said all along, that is all he deserves.

    But after such a horrible day, I am incredibly thrilled to know that my favourite player is staying a Demon. Watching him play for another team, is as bad as Judd choosing Collingwood.

    Yes, it's selfish of me, but I would have been devestated had we lost Robbo and not gained Judd. Besides, I still think he has a lot to contribute to the team. And no, that doesn't mean he shouldn't improve, as he does have plenty of areas that need work.

    Needs to lift his game IMO but at least will end his career as a one club player.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
