    Are you talking about Burchill? Think their success is more to do with Fagan and the other players than Burchill or Hodge.
  2. Pity, as we play at Cazaly in Cairns, Alice Springs, the Gabba, Metricon, Adelaide Oval, SCG, GWS, Perth, Launceston, Hobart and New Guinea, everywhere except the MCG and Docklands.

    No! Will be 32 this year. We are not the MFC Retirement Home or Super Fund.

    They have pulled out the cheque book and hopefully put a hole in there salary cap.
  5. Redleg replied to Flag Favourites 3019's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    No, I know less.
  6. Is our 3rd biggest goal kicker in last 2 years.
  7. Well he is 28 so if the body is ok you would get 3 years at least out of him. If he passed a medical, was not expensive and could be obtained cheaply, then yes I would have a serious look at him.
  8. Agree he is a very good player and they won’t let him go, if they can stop him.
  9. I don’t understand what you are saying. Are you saying should look at him or not?

    Unfortunately that is what many will say in a few years, as non champions are soon forgotten by fans of other clubs.
  11. Fair enough.
  12. Ross Lyon is close to Harley and he said on Footy Classified that he wouldn't get another contract from Melbourne and that he had problems away from footy to deal with. Given that statement Harley could be finished with AFL footy.

    He's gone then.
  14. Why are North pushing him out the door? Something must be wrong for them to actively get rid of a player who has kicked over 60 goals in each of 2017,18 & 19.
  15. I think that most people on here admire JV and the way he goes about his footy. The two criticisms of him most cite, are first, that he tries to barge through players, causing free kicks against him and turnovers, when he ultimately tries to get rid of the ball, while being tackled and second, that his disposal by hand and foot is not great. I agree with those two criticisms. If that then leads you to conclude that I and others who share the same view, have nfi when it comes to football intelligence, then right back at you, having nfi when it comes to football intelligence, and is proved by what you fail to see, of the way he is playing at the moment. PS. Criticizing an aspect of a player's game, doesn't mean you don't like or value his other contributions, but rather it is recognizing an area that maybe he can improve, to enhance his game and thereby his contribution to the team.

    Good luck on your retirement Jack, you gave us a lot of joy in an ordinary side. He is a friendly approachable guy and was never up himself. Hope to see you at a Dees game in the future.
  17. Jye Caldwell? Don't know O'Halloran. Maybe both if they are better than what we have. Preuss is a valuable commodity now and there should be no fire sale.
  18. Will have to rookie an experienced ruckman if he goes, to allow LJ and Bradtke time to develop.

    ET stop posting here and get back to breaking trade news on the Trade Board. You are the man. You did say that Jack Watts has retired didn't you?
  20. I think ET the trade news breaker will soon announce Daniher to Lions.

    Surprised at Dunkley, but good luck to all 3 boys and thanks for being part of the MFC.

    Russell Robertson says hi. Went from the worst kick in the side to the best, in one pre season with help and practice.

    That is what I said, 38 on main list, that is 2 less than this year. "How many players are on AFL lists now? Teams have between 38 and 40 footballers on their 'primary' list, and either four, five or six Category A rookies for a maximum combination of 44.Apr 4, 2020"
  24. Great end to the season. Miss finals. Covid breach. Inappropriate touching. Good to be a Dees fan.
