It is much easier to attract a player when you are in the finals and seen as moving in to the Premiership window.
-
For mine Mitch Clark has always played his best footy as a ruckman/follower who rests up forward. Never really a genuine key forward. However in the age of the subsitute his fliexibility would have had value. But we move on. I would not be against considering Jordan Lisle from Hawthorn as the stay at home key forward option. Watched some of his games this year. Can take a mark but needs to work on his kicking.
-
Hopefully with a better forward structure and planning our inside50s will be more effective and Nm 18 will have a productive season. Go Dees!
-
I thought he was quite promising in terms of his workrate and marking. Kicking needs alot of work.

More oddness. Adelaide List Manager David Noble on Gunston Trade "Overall result won't pan out until the end of the week". Given no one has said how Adeliade have secured Pick 2/Crouch in MD methinks something dodgy is going on again and that if allowed to proceed by AFL MD1/O'Meara will be back to GWS.
-
the comp picks will be very handy to have when some of the young GC and GWS talents want to return home.

Can't see a loophole myself. Plainly worded English for mine.

Has no impact on father son rule. We would be trading picks we have either for 2011 draft or $cully Comp picks.
-
I think they are not in breach for season 2011 but projections for 2012 have them over the cap for next year so they need to either get some players to take pay cuts or trade out some experienced highly payed players and replace them with new draftees who are significantly cheaper.

Should the minimum age of draftees be raised.
demoniac replied to cowboy_from_hell's topic in Melbourne Demons
The problem with raising the minimum age is competition from other sports. -
Draft for tomorrow. Trade for Today.
-
I think it will be pretty clear after the trades are announced as to which club will take which player. The most important point is that those trades have to be done by Thursday at 5pm otherwise based on experience they would not have been done until the final hours of trade week thus meaning other deals would be in limbo and might not get done.

Owned by Paul Connors and a WA player/manager.. Colin Young?
-
Yes. They beat us to Brock's signature!
-
Green will start next year as a 31 year old so for mine a 1 year deal is appropriate. He was poor this year but in that he was not on his own. In theory with better decision making by players kicking inisde F50 and with hopefully vastly improved forward structures and leading patterns a strong marking medium fwd like Green will hopefully benefit.
-
Decision making when he has the ball and disposal efficiency are his weaknesses. Too often this year he took a fantastic contested mark in defence then turned the ball straight over. No doubt Neeld will have him working on that over summer.

The Age reports that his 2IC at St Kilda Robert Jackson has also come across. http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/saints-sound-out-eade-for-top-job-20110922-1kn9j.html Robert Jackson features in this video on Saints 2011 Pre Season http://www.saints.com.au/tabid/5315/default.aspx?newsid=106006

Up the draft age and watch the best young talents walk to league, union, soccer, basketball, cricket...
-
We enquired about his status with his management company and were told he was going to sign with the Saints. His management company thought he was going to sign with St Kilda. St Kilda thought he was going to sign with St Kilda. To turn this into a negative for the Dees is simply preposterous. The reason Freo acted most unusually in contacting a coach direct was because their target shared managers with their current coach so to go through normal channels was impossible.

What does this say about the state of the MFC?
demoniac replied to Striker475's topic in Melbourne Demons
Methinks tonight's news says more about Ross Lyon than it does the MFC. Saints v Freo at Etihad will be a sell out. I imagine the former inhabitants of the infamous animal cage at Moorabin will give Ross Lyon a very cheerful welcome. Do we have any limited role player types we can send to Freo in return for one of their young stars. -
They did pay quite alot..in terms of precious spots on a limited list.

Apparently Schwabby was also on the Grassy Knoll and Cheviot Beach.....

MELBOURNE Football Club can confirm that Tom Scully informed the club earlier on Monday of his intentions to sign with Greater Western Sydney. The club will hold a media conference on Monday at 2pm, with Melbourne chief executive Cameron Schwab and vice-president Don McLardy.
