  1. Sounds great and all but i would prefer scully want to stay and be a demon for life. We will do very well for that deal but i also believe the best thing for scully will be to stay at Melbourne.
  2. Fevola as mature age rookie wouldn't be the worst thing. We have had Newton for god knows how long and he was useless as [censored] on a bull.
  3. If we are serious we smash them from here. Trengove is all class. Moloney dominating. Maric is dangerous. Jurrah going well. Gysberts could stuff up weet bix
  4. Meh happened before! A big red head full back went forward and kicked the first goal from an interstate team and they whole team was involved. But Seriously how stupid in this day an age to do something. I feel sorry for MAxwell as I dont think he was involved but his name will be brought up in it.
  5. Yeah not happy paying around 600 for a membership for a reserved seat yet they want to sting me 17 for a reserved seat at that horrible ground!
  6. His management have done whats in the best interest of there client. If Tom said I just want to be at Melbourne he will sign with Melbourne, they will not force his hand either way. They will give both offers and let him decide.
  7. I think everyone well mostly the media get carried away with contract talks. It would be a long way off a player leaving due to this. The player isn't really involved much in the talks. This is the role of the manager.
  8. Can't see why Bennell is ahead of him. Should swap those two and give MAric a good 4-5 games to show his worth. Bennell has showed he is scared and has little impact on games. Maric is skilful and know where to go, lacks a little bit of intensity and mongrel. Should be given a chance to prove himself.
  9. Geez West Coast would be shattered they dodged that bullet.
  10. I agree with the Goddard comments. reminds me a lot of him without the big leap. I think the rest of the season will be big for Cale. If he can have a good couple of games it will do well for his prospects. He needs some confidence and to use him when he is open, yes Ricky Petterd that means you!!
  11. I don't think Hawthorn will give up Shoenmakers for Hill. No one wants to touch Hill with a ten foot pole! If you put Lake in there you have a chance.
  12. Davey shouldn't play in Darwin, fitness and form against him. Tapscott should be a chance, MAric should definately come in for Bennell. Will be good to have Bail in the side. We really lacked a defensive side on friday night, something Davey will not bring.
  13. Adrian Anderson is a complete [censored]. To come out and contradict what Jeff said shows how hard his job is. Anderson said there should have been a free kick because it was rough conduct in a tackle. There is no such rule, the umpires cop a lot of abuse and this is because no one know the rules of ur game. get rid of him asap.
  14. Thomas and Caro have no reliable sources. Anyone that actually knows the future of Tom would never say anything to anyone in the media. In the end the journalists have spoken to someone at Gws who think because they are going to make an unbelievable offer that he will sign. the journalists think because Ablett signed so will tom. They have a 50/50 chance in being right and will gloat massively if he does saying that they knew before everyone else and if he doesnt that he changed his mind after saying yes!!! For what its worth a good friend of many years is a player manager at a rival company and has said he has no idea about Scully (i ask him every couple of days) He reckons no one in the know would mention anything to journalists but they wouldn't mind a little media talk to bump up hs price. But from his end of players there has been no interest in GWS as there were a lot more players willing to talk to Gold Coast. He feels not many will sign with GWS and this is the reason they are starting to come up with such huge offers. He also states due to confidentiality he nor any other managers can talk about specific players which makes it even more strange that people are saying that Scully is gone.
  15. This is a big issue and it reflect very poorly on Dean Bailey. MFC have to look at other coaching options if Roos, MAlthouse etc are available. I'm not saying we should sack Dean Bailey before the season is up but he will have to show some improvement in these areas. Our effort on Friday wasn't up to standard with what was up for grabs, especially after a club legend had passed away.
  16. Out Jurrah and Bennel - Find a heart between you! Nicholson. In Batram, MAcdonald - We really missed these two .Tapscott if fit or maybe Cook. Why should we keep Jurrah in just because the game is in Darwin? That's rubbish.
  17. Not sure who is softer Bennell or Jurrah. So scared of contact it's sad. Both need to harden up at Casey. Everyone just has a go at Morton but those two always put in softer performances but get away with it because they are flashy players.
  18. Good analysis, bit harsh on Moloney, thought he did well and was on Boyd so someone else needed to stand up. Unfortunately no one did.
  19. My neck is sore from nodding in agreement. Very well said, every point is correct!
  20. Sorry to spoil the party but he was terrible last night. Many turnovers and runs around like a headless chook! May be the last we see of him at senior level for a while.
  21. He does have talent, but that doesn't mean he is up to AFL standard. I just hope Aussie is happy in whatever he does, the same with every player.
  22. I don't think that will happen or is fair. Aussie isn't up to AFL standard. he is a great guy and has talent, but will not get another contract. I also guarantee that Melbourne will do there best to look after Aussie and his family but gifting him a one year extension isn't right! Hopefull he returns to play footy some where in the Tiwi islands and him and his family are happy but MFC isn't a charity its a harsh business.
  23. The comparison with Storm is interesting. All NRL people want it to fail, they hate the Storm and we so happy when they got what they got. The supporters (most not all) fail to see the big picture with there sport and hence it isn't growing. They were to happy to watch Melbourne suffer and happily looked at picking up the players but failing to realise it was also the players who were accepting these deals knowing htey were dodgy. I don't think Tom or Ward will accept a deal knowing it is dodgy.
