Melbourne declare its hand. Dees want Dew as successor Offer on table but dew yet to accept is the official line from Sydney. You would have to think Roos has been in deep discussion with Stu and that the club wouldnt have tabled an offer otherwise. Now it gets fun.. Lets play hardball. Lets remind Colless et al that they don't get everything their way. Go Dees edit sorry didnt see early links

Just Collingwood being Collingwood !! Cant blame them. Doesn't deserve it though. Band 2 max

Hes currently visiting in Vic ?

Probably . But doesn't hurt to try

A thing about all this is that we have our opinions of the MFC but from within , in a fashion as we have an understanding of things Melbourne . Everyone else sees us vrry differently .

id want a middish first rounder back then...otherwise id buy that.

is this a poll ??

Quite possibly. And what he does is what he does. We'll be fine without him

I agree STMJ the comparison is unfair. I can see how playing WAFL etc isnt the same as tier 1 but there must be some indications. He looks like a decent player. if he is the type that can be developed im all for it. he does strike me as trying to make of his opportunities what he can

he was asked point blank " Do you see yourself in participating anywhere in any capacity( coaching ) in 14" he said NO i dont really care. he can do what he likes. Hes just another media fibber.Seems the way they all work.

I think there will be a dozen players whacked with a 6 month suspension . ( effectively one season ) at best. I year at worse . i suspect ASADA will effectively mitigate the penalties suggesting co-operation etc etc. Thats going to be interesting to see unfold and take hold. I also expect life ban for Hird. Still amazes me the denial expressed by many a messendon fan on various forums etc As 2014 alludes , the AFL cant control this from here on in.. Its not their court. just as amazingly I can see that Mess coping with it and surviving but it will emasculate them for some years to come.. Some coterie will have to dig very very VERY deep. Interesting times ahead for sure

but is he capable of stepping up with sound mentoring and game time ?

far from signed, sealed or delivered yet Scum have no money room currently still makes it hard

Is that the same Cameron "Ive got no interest in coaching " Ling ?? just asking Going to run out of room on the thread's title bar soon !! lol

dateline : October 9 The Melbourne Football Club announces the 5 year plan. Spokesman Neil Nvoid told the three gathered at the presser that the New Board , The New President an the New Coach have formulated the way to success. Neil then went on ( an on ) to outline how after much research and untold discovery the MFC is now on the road to finals. When asked the direction the club will take he outlined the course to be taken based upon the new ideals formed around Wide-ranging Instructions Negating Negative Induced Non-responsive Generations it seems we've been concentration far to much on Long Odds Systems Inducing Nothing Good Now the offending characteristic of our poor form has been isolated we will now march fervently up the ladder When taken to task about our past poor performances it was pointed out that past teams and administrations simply sucked big time. Asked about the F word Neil responded similarly !! As to top 8 finishes, the official line was "well we take it all one week at a time, but don't go booking any holidays in September from here on in" So there ya go OD...good as done mate !!

yep, nothng about SS on the main media sources

We made a lot of very poor decisions. There's no evidence to suggest the current regime wont get their picks better.( i.e wont repeat past f ups) And it didnt work out too well with them....because of the players they were ( at Melb ) Fwiw I don think we are overly concerned about necessarily getting any of the top ranked draftees and seem more focused on those in the 20-30 range. Why I say this...the club's happy to trade away pick 2. It's not desperate to retain it.

Dean Wallis sacked hmmm.

its odd for sure.. is it Mickey just want to hog all the lollies ? lol Daisy will have cost a packet and they havent exactly moved on many costing much. Like yourself McQ...Its got me stuffed. Must have opened another box of brown bags !!

gladly fast forward... wheres the button ?

Even that makes no sense as Scum are unloading big time as they have salary cap headaches already. I can't see how they can offer overs to Savage !! if that was the thinking

Its definitely a challenge. Bit like fishing isnt it. You bait your hook , set your line and see what swims by. There's patience required . Even when nibbles occur you have to show restraint. i think we have a clear direction as to what we want, and what we are prepared to deal for. I also dont think the trees have been shaken enough yet. The last week of trade AFTER free agency has closed should prove entertaining.

who is.. still have pick 2 and our original 2nd rnd pick !! hardly small change ? Cross is a freebie.
