Anyone notice how pale the blue is on the Women's jumpers? Any chance the Men's jumpers will follow suit? Totally different apparel sponsors, I realise, and I understand that the women's team has attempted to create a separate identity.. I thought the lighter blue stood out. The dark blue we currently have often looks black.

Well a current listed player had heard otherwise

As I made people aware on Sunday evening, the Rockliff trade was definitely on the cards, but was 90% ...the 10% was dependent on how the cards fell. Unfortunately, we used what we had as bargaining tools on other deals. Probably why we wanted to give Essendung our next year 2nd rounder. I think this deal has fallen over and we weren't as keen once we knew Lewis was a done deal
-
It's a done deal. Was done yesterday. Told you all last night.

Dawes has been delisted 100 per cent. Will be announced tomorrow. So there is one spot
-
I can reveal tonight the following... Jordan Lewis will be at Melbourne in 2017. Tom Rockliff is 90 per cent over the line and Chris Dawes has been delisted and that will be announced tomorrow. Don't ask me to name specific sources of info, as I'd be betraying trust, but since the riddler has returned ...let me me indulge him..The Lewis news comes from a sauce closer than the man's dog.. The dawes news is from the main door...and the main door told me about Rockliff. Happy Monday 'Landers...We are gonna get what we want ..

ANB needs to learn how to kick. Plain and simple. Watched him all season at Casey. He gets a tonne of possessions and then sprays his kicks.
-
^ THIS., we are looking for a stop gap. Developing rucks takes ages. Max has taken 7 years. Surprised by the negativity by know it alls like Wiseblood and others who contribute nothing but smart ar$se comments. He's hardly be the worst addition if you'd get him for nothing. If Max gets injured and spencer has to ruck, we are f.....n stuffed.

It's that time of the year where we look at every possible trade. Will has announced he is leaving the bulldogs. We have announced that we are looking for a Ruckman. They don't go on trees. He was an AA. Has good VFL for. Flogged Spencer in the VFL Grand Final. Downsides would be his age. He also has a poor behavioural record from memory. However, if Gawn wereally to get injured I'd prefer having this bloke as a back up
-
I have been advocating this for years. Toorak Park is next to transport..it is in the middle of our heartland, which is, like it or not, Toorak, South Yarra, Malvern, Armadale and down to the Bayside suburbs...that's where we should be based. Toorak plays host to the Prahran Footy Club, Old Xavs, Prahran Cricket Club and Melbourne Rugby Club. Robbie Flower Oval and the Jim Stynes Social Club..it could all be so good..we need to explore it.
-
Very sad news. Anyone got a picture of him playing for the Dees? RIP Max!
-
Kielty has impressed me live. I'd have ahim on our list happily
-
DUNN has been sensational
-
Scott Thompson - Would we welcome him back?
Leoncelli_36 replied to The Backyard Charizard's topic in Melbourne Demons
Take him for peanuts..just to have him around the place and on the track when fit. One year, what's the harm..everyone saying we have to follow the youth path...yeah right...did we learn nothing from the experience 8 years ago when we cleaned out all our experience and only played kids. All sides need a balance. Use GWS as the model. Look at the older guys they have brought in over their term to assist the development of young kids. We have a good lot of young fellas..they need some direction. I don't think Jones is a good talker on match days..he leads by example, which is a great quality..he could do with a hand. It's no risk as far as I am concerned. Rather have him in the side once in a while than Have Michie or Matt Jones. -
Tell me one game..One passage of play you can recall from this year that Matt Jones influenced. ..go on
-
10 games of awful turnovers and rubbish kicks across goals .. He can go.

Stuie you are the one struggling mate. You constantly do. I am pretty certain you are the same Stuie that posts garbage all over the Facebook footy pages. First name xxxxxxx. Last name xxxxxx. Been reading your rubbish here and there for years. Pedo has kicked goals.in all games he has played. He holds his marks. He is no slouch. He actually has made our team better than Hogan this year. The stats tell you so. He was great against Geelong last year. Great against the GC this year. You have no idea. We don't have another big bodied forward right now and you wanna cast him to the wind coz he is 30. Remember how well the old youth policy worked when Schwabb enforced it on the FD. Get back on your meds and take a nap
-
I am bewildered by posters that say Pedo is not a part of the future. He has played well in every winning game we have played with him in the side. He takes strong contested marks and is a more reliable shot at goal than most of the forwards in our side. It actually annoys me that we just write him off. Weed wont be a game breaker from Rd 1 next year. We need some back ups ...Cut the bloke some slack.

Yep..this is on the money for mine. Although Trenners/Salem or Kennedy could be subsituted for JKH
-
Surely Pederson comes back in? He gives us a better structure than the Weed atm. Weed will be a good player for us, but against Geelong will be out of his depth. Hopefully Garlett comes back in. What is the story with Ben Kennedy? He was one of our best early in the season. Michie goes out and will be delisted. He is f...n useless. Has shown time and time again that he doesn't have what it takes to perform at AFL level. I think we need to look at JKH ..has had some decent form in the VFL. For mine, he is a keeper, but if we can get something we need for him, then he can be traded. Injuries have stuffed his progress.

The Most Un-Awesome Post Match Thread Ever
Leoncelli_36 replied to Chook's topic in Melbourne Demons
Another disaster at the selection table. Why drop Pedo.? In favour of a bloke playing game number 2 and we expected he would be a world beater coming back from injury. FfS. Michie should never play again, but this wasn't a game to experiment and see what he had. ANB in the same boat. Lost at section table. Pathetic attitude from our leaders. Hogganfield can't kick for s. ...t. I need a drink. Or ten -
Pedo would have been watching and having a laugh. Had been so good and so important to our structure for 2 or 3 week and is the first to be dropped by for a kid who showed signs against the Hawks but was coming back from injury. Pathetic selection and setup.
-
Vince can sit out next week. He had contributed bugger all for over a month. Michie can have whatever contract he has torn up. He is a useless AFL footballer and never translates his VFL for ... Neale Bullen the same. Has done stuff all. Horrendous performance when we had all to play for. Devoid of leadership
-
Pederson gives us heaps. Every time he comes him he adds another dimension and unlike Hogan doesn't just look for frees . Hogan will come good, but atm, I would keep going with the current lineup.
