Would keep Green he has some talent and should have been either Captain or VC.

Robbo has just signed a two year contract so he won't be going anywhere.

White may be needed for one more year unless Meesen comes good.

You forgot JAMAR to Sandy.

Green is part of the cancer that's destroying this club, he may or may not be a good guy, who cares. He's one of the outside recievers that never gets physical. He has to go.

Replace Green with Bruce and you're just about right.

From what I'm hearing, there are going to be enormous changes happening at the end of this season. A lot of our favourites won't make it to 2009.

Oh and if we get a half-drunk bottle of coke for Warnock, it would be the biggest steal of the century. Warnock is very much in the delist pile along with Weetra and CJ if they fail to show anything.

You do realise you do actually need a few receivers in a side?

In and under players usually can't get a steady kick out of a pack, so they look for the receivers.......

You're not already part of the Melbourne list management people, are you?

"out of a pack, so they look for the receivers......." this is exactly why I wanted Ebert in last years draft, 6'2" tall with reasonable pace who has class, kicks off both feet very well & plays both inside & outside equally well...

"you can't give a squib courage and you can't make a slow man fast."

We have to change the culture @ the club, that means NO ONE gets an easy ride. He doesn't go in, he doesn't get a game!

It's now,,,, or never............

"What was Checker Hughes like?" I ask, still cautious not to intrude while the Dees have a game to win.

"He was my football father," Noel says affectionately. "He taught me about life. About respect and loyalty. 'Where there's no respect, there's no loyalty,' he used to say. You can make things happen. There's only two things you can't change: you can't give a squib courage and you can't make a slow man fast."

for anyone who thinks we have the capacity to trade off and delist players at years end should take this into consideration...

retiring definitely:

Neitz

Whelan

Yze

Holland

Retiring probably:

McDonald

White

Delist definitely:

C.Johnson

Warnock

That's already 8 players and a hell of a lot of experience!

In a perfect world, i would definitely delist Miller, Jamar, Wheatley, as well as try to trade Green, Bruce and Robbo...however the reality is that you can't have such massive list changes in 1 season.

Hopefully by 2-3 years time we'll have gotten rid of all our dead wood

What club would seriously trade anything for Warnock?

Theres a rumour Chad Cournes wants to come to melbourne and Warnock is locked to that discussion. Me thinks a good swap but risky if Warnock comes good.

Warnock?!?! He can't crack a game with MFC. It's so beyond me how he's still on our list. Stll waiting to come good and he's getting the pension soon. Get rid of TJ and keep Warnock - now that was a plan.

Not according to some of the posters on this site.

We need receivers like the Titanic needs an iceberg.

Warnock and about 5 others, Warnock is NOT up to it, will be delisted and no-one will pick him up

I'd like to see Green at full forward for a while. I don't want to see him go until he hasn't been tried there for a good few games.

l agree, Green won't be going anywhere unless there is a good trade for him

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year.
