  1. I know he's your favourite but how about a straight trade of Robbie Warnock for PJ?

    Still looking for PSD but if we are forced to deal...

    great idea !!!

    trade a guy who we have developed for the last 3 years , plays for the jumper then when he comes good get rid of him

  2. Hi,

    does anyone if the club makes much more out of merchandise sold at the demon shop in the MCG compared to merchandise sold at other outlets

    I am feeling all warm and fuzzy after hearing about last nights dinner and want to load up on new demons gear

  3. I have noticed Jimmy Stynes, wearing a 2006 member scarf at all games. He turns it around so you can't the 2006 member part :lol:

    how bad are we travelling finacially if the prez has to wear 2 year old stock :lol:

  4. I am not against getting a champion player but a million dollars a year for 5 years is too much for any player (maybe buddy franklin is the exception) given our current ladder /list position and finances

  5. Has a coach in his first year ever had such debarkle follow him?

    The axing of 2 CEO's, the formation of a new board and question marks over Melbourne's sustainibillity in Victoria. Add to this the retirement of his captain as well as a unbalanced list that is mixed with either really young kids or really old driftwood and nothing really in between, saying he has had it tough is an understatement.

    Yoda has been a true professional throughout, he and Jimma will lead this club out of the darkness i'm a believer

  6. My first reaction to Colin Sylvia is to trade him. Col reminds me of Medhurst a little bit, just not as good. I'd be happy to trade him if the offer was right. I think he needs a good end of year to be not thought of being traded, if that makes sense.

    Keep he will be our Robbo replacement for years to come

  7. Fox Sports 1 (Channel 501) is showing the following programme today at 1.00pm

    AFL: Under 18 Championships Wrap

    AFL. Matthew Campbell and his panel of experts discuss the recent Under-18s championships and look at which young footballers' lives will be changed forever when AFL clubs sit down in November to select players at the National Draft.

    Will be worth a look to see what the so called experts say about Watts , Rich etc

  8. MELBOURNE

    Backs Matthew Whelan Colin Garland Matthew Warnock

    Half backs Chris Johnson Paul Wheatley Lynden Dunn

    Centreline Cale Morton Cameron Bruce Simon Buckley

    Half forwards Colin Sylvia Matthew Bate Aaron Davey

    Forwards Paul Johnson Brad Miller Austin Wonaeamirri

    Followers Mark Jamar Clint Bartram Nathan Jones

    Interchange from Daniel Bell James McDonald Stefan Martin Michael Newton Shane Valenti Jeff White Adem Yze

    In Aaron Davey James McDonald Jeff White Adem Yze

    Out Brad Green (hamstring)

    Interesting to see Adem Yze in the side.

    Would expect White to play.

    Would have thought that Dunn got the job on Palmer????

    I think Martin deserved to be named on the ground after last weeks performance.

    As much as I love Jmac , Yze and White the bench has gotta be Bell, Newton, Valenti & Martin.

    The other 3 can have the farewell games at the G - they deserve that later in the year.

  9. the way the ball comes off his foot is like he is wearing ugg boots not footy boots. keep him in the midfield where he can deliver his trademark hospital handballs to a stationary target or helicopter floaters into the forward line

  10. Barring injury I would be happy if they left this side as is for the next 4-5 weeks to see weather some of these guys are up to it eg juice , bell , jamar then bring back the old timers in the last 2 rounds to say goodbye yze, holland , Jmac , white

  11. been good this year will finish top 5 B&F got at least 2- years left in him

    a rebuilding side needs some experience in it too we can just load up on youngsters and hope for the best

    besides we would get jack for him

  12. bench for mine should be Martin, Valenti, Newton, Bell

    Valenti , Martin deserve to keep their place even if Martin didn't do much against Brisbane he should be given the chance to string a few games together

    Would love to see Juice Newton given the rest of the season in the seniors to see if he has what it takes if not see ya

    Also love to see bell given a chance to get his 2007 form back he is an important player for us going forward
