That's the feeling I'm getting with as well re Bedford comment.

No.

Nice.. big fan of this kid and play very similar to his brother. Would give us some speed, class and kicking skills off half back.

Good news. Just confirmed on afl.com.au Roos target pick one, Dee to go on, big Dog to stay DEE TO GO ON MELBOURNE veteran Jake Melksham is set to go on at the Demons next year after his knee reconstruction late this season.

The 32-year-old has been out of contract and an unrestricted free agent after going down with the season-ending knee injury in round 24 against Sydney and missing the Demons’ finals series. But the popular forward is set to play on in 2024, with details still to be worked through around whether he will be senior or rookie-listed in the deal. The injury will likely see him sidelined until past midway through next season.

Can someone provide summary of this article?

Not said in heat of moment? Similiar comments to what you have just mentioned have either been said in game day threads or post game straight after a loss. If that isn't exactly heat of the moment then I don't know what is. I hate Maynard more then anything and watching him gloat around on the weekend has only just intensified that even more but when we're stooping to Collingwood levels of filth language saying "he wishes he gets hit by a bus" then [censored] that, I'll call him out on it whether he meant it or not, just as you've called people out when they too haven't meant what they said in the heat of the moment. Call him whatever name you want under the sun, I'll happily join in, but [censored] that stuff off about wishing people to be hit by a bus. I'm leaving at this because I'm simply moving on now.

His VFL level says different for this year anyway. 10 games for 14 goals.

Just on an interesting one. I heard this on the SEN trade bell few weeks back but someone had texted in at the time saying that Melbourne are trying hard to get Riley Thilthorpe from Adelaide. I obviously didn't take much notice of it because many things get said with zero substance on those Trade bells that random people just text in. Listening to trade radio just then and it was mentioned one again that someone has texted in saying we are trying desperately hard in gaining Thilthorpe from the Crows. Again, I'm not putting any substance to it but it's interesting that it was mentioned again but on a different platform. Certainly a good discussion to have. 200cm key forward who was a pick 2 in the 2020 draft. Certainly makes sense.

I find this a bit pot kettle black. You're happy to jump down other people's throat on here when things are said in the heat of the moment regarding any Melbourne player but when the shoe is on the other foot such as this its all good and well because someone wears a different jumper? Can't pick and choose just to suit your narrative here.

This is why I think we'll focus on youth this trade period and clear out some cap space. Reason why? I think there'll be an element of truth where we'll go incredibly hard after Zak Butters next year

Definitely not how I read into it.

Sam Edmund and Tom Morris just confirmed on Trade Radio that there is absolutely no substance to Melbourne potentially in the market for Ben King, Aaron Naughton or Oscar Allan. Edmund went on to explain that he was speaking to someone influential inside Melbourne and the focus will be blooding and giving the kids more opportunities at senior level.

There's actually a difference between venting and then wishing someone gets hit by a bus. I'm all for venting away, go for it! But then it's beyond pathetic when people are saying such [censored]. Thought we were better then this. Clearly not.

Thought it was pretty damming that he wasn't part of the group of players that were left out of the Casey's elimination for the carry over into the seniors. The fact they preferred Woewodin and Laurie just shows how far down the pecking order he was.

Unfortunately I'm starting to think this is the case.

There's a bit of Richmond 2017 style to Collingwood with their forward set up yesterday. Play the Mihocek as the sole key forward focus similar to Jack Riewoldt and then the remaining forward line was made up of smalls in Hill, Elliot, Ginavvan and McCreery. Meanwhile they had Frampton doing a full lock down role on Harris similar to Jacob Townsend who was tagging Jake Lever in the 2017 grand final.

Lol.. yet its Howe who has the last laugh while Cameron has to drown his sorrows playing in 2 grand finals without a win. I know what I'd rather take.

Best you were saying this last year. They'll ve top 4 again next year without hesitation.

That's because you're right, he hasn't. Sometimes I wonder if posters even watch footy.

It's not the small forwards that the issue, it's the flawed system that Goodwin has that doesn't play to their advantages. Goodwin wants all our small forwards to be the link up option instead of actually being there for the drop of the ball. Too many times are smalls are pressed so high up that when we win back possession through sling shot we have no one in space to kick to their advantage I can't remember the last game where our genuine small forwards have created goals from being front and centre of the forwards or given the space and opportunity ahead of goal. Look at the way McRea uses Hill. In our system there is no way he gets so much space an opportunity as what he does at Collingwood. I'm all for Watson, but not if Goody is going to run with the same flawed system that he's had the past 2 years.

Inserted himself way too much this year. You've had your time Pete, rack off.

Mate calm ya [censored] farm. Seriously, I get it's hurting watching Maynard win a premiership medal but spewing up pathetic comments such as you hope he gets hit by a bus is pure filth. Pull your head in. You sound exactly like Collingwood filth supporter. Time to lock this thread @Demonland

Well this thread should have been permanently shut down here as you stated. To leave this open is now simply rubbing salt into the wound now that Maynard has a medal around his neck.
