Compensation for Loss of NT Academy Zone
The Lobster Effect replied to The Great Pretender's topic in Melbourne Demons
Multicultural participants must either have been born overseas, or has one parent who was born overseas. Which is stupid because it means if you or one of your parents were born in England than you qualify. I would have thought you also need to have grown up speaking another language. So if you grew up in England (or India.. or Frankston... ) speaking Hindi than you should qualify but if your main language was English than bad luck. -
The future 4th being the one ties to us that's bounced around like a hot potato. Was a pick 11 so just shows you can't get your hopes up too much with first round picks..

My first thought was no way (Bruce more valuable than Frost) but then I checked this year's B & F results - they both finished 9th!

Gun target - Key Forward recruit?
The Lobster Effect replied to tallstuey's topic in Melbourne Demons
Thinking of some other obscure victorian forwards... Hoskin-elliot Mason wood -
Just bring in a rule that free agents can't go to top 4 clubs in the year they want to move.

WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - ADAM TOMLINSON
The Lobster Effect replied to dazzledavey36's topic in Melbourne Demons
Nice spotting! Bit of a giveaway I'd say. Maybe he can sell it to Daniher? -
WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - ADAM TOMLINSON
The Lobster Effect replied to dazzledavey36's topic in Melbourne Demons
Average wage was 362k a year (2018 stats) so that figure will probably be about 400k next year. I think that's ok. He's worth just slightly more than the average player. -
The Christopher Woods Thread
The Lobster Effect replied to dazzledavey36's topic in Melbourne Demons
Because some zones are better than others. It's definitely not a level playing field. West Coast have 16 players, we have 1, so statistically they have 16 more chances to find a gem through this process. -
Who’s the next great indigenous small forward?
The Lobster Effect replied to PaulRB's topic in Melbourne Demons
Aussie wonnaemiri. If we can wait until next year (we can't) we have Deakyn Smith on our academy list for next year. Or Kobe Farmer but he's probably freo bound -
List changes who do we cut, trade or go after.

2019 Contracts and List Details
The Lobster Effect replied to Lucifers Hero's topic in Melbourne Demons
B graders is generous. -
WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - ADAM TOMLINSON
The Lobster Effect replied to dazzledavey36's topic in Melbourne Demons
Does anyone secretly want tomlinson to miss out on a flag so he comes to Melbourne with more of a burning desire to win one? -
Greene in for Ian Hill. Whitfield in for Keefe. Would they risk coniglio coming in after a couple months off? Pretty hard to drop someone else for him too.

Hogan, May and KK have certainly kept the doctors busy

Damien Barrett's scathing assessment of the MFC
The Lobster Effect replied to Bring-Back-Powell's topic in Melbourne Demons
Yeah but if a journo like damo knew someone like petracca wanted out he would report it to get the glory rather than his cryptic comments on afl.com today. -
WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - ED LANGDON
The Lobster Effect replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
Nope. It'd just be a verbal agreement at this stage. Contracts technically run until end of October I think. -
Sell high, buy low. Apart from Petracca's being a core part of the club that I'd hate to see go, he also hasn't reached his peak so we wouldn't be getting full value for him. He's clearly on his way up, with his most consistent year to date.

I'd be physically sick if Hawthorn get in the 8. Is it too much to ask that they have a few years down the bottom!
-
His brother took a while before he became a star, 4 years I think. So need to be patient.

Adelaide are 102.98 Port are 102.97

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - DEAKYN SMITH
The Lobster Effect replied to BAMF's topic in Melbourne Demons
Get a haircut! Hopefully continues his development next year.. -
Collingwood VFL v Casey Demons - Round 19
The Lobster Effect replied to KC from Casey's topic in Melbourne Demons
Say what you like about his afl capabilities but 75 hit outs by the big man preussy is not a bad effort. -
Shame Melbourne isn't playing. Could have gone to the footy and snow at the same time.

We don't have much depth but got away with it last year; this year not so much. The good clubs seem to have a conveyor belt of good players able to come in.

One of the channel 7 commentators is "Jack Fitzpatrick"... assuming not our ex player?
