Old Gregg

Favourite non-Melbourne player!!!! A champion!!! the AFL won't be the same without him

Were Bartram, Cheney and McNamara signed on one year contracts?

Makes you think..... Why the [censored] didn't we elevate Valenti???

Let's all move on from Ball...we have better options.

Melbourne are 2-3 and sitting at 11th, the wins coming from a one-point thriller over Collingwood, and a comfortable forty point victory over Richmond. Jack Trengove picks up the Rising Star nomination for round 1 while Tom Scully is not far behind, a 25-posession game in round 4 gaining the nomination. Jim Stynes has fought back the brunt of his cancer and is up-and-at-em again, a being a regular in the cheer squad. The meteoric rise of Liam Jurrah continues, a huge preseason seeing him in the top-10 goalkickers already. The debt has slowly declined over summer and perhaps by August it will have been demolished entirely? The membership tally is chasing the record at a tick over 29,000. The Demons have a bright future!!!

If we want a good kid then we use pick 34 or pick 50 instead.

Good draw.... but how can round 1 and 2 games vs Collingwood and Hawthorn on Saturday afternoon be broadcasted on Fox? Surely a mistake...

Move on people

LOL

Strauss Player Review

Agree to disagree. I just don't think we're at that stage of proper credibility quite yet

Seconded. Can't we just all settle on rising star?

Sometimes you're too optimistic for your own good. We are still the wooden-spooners, for the second year running, and we are not an exciting team to watch. We can't expect any more than a slight improvement on this year. Don't get me wrong, I'm excited about the future too, but we're still a fair way away from being a priority for the AFL in broadcasting etc

Butcher at pick 11

For the MFC, yes....he's our biggest drawcard ATM. In a football sense, not yet

Thankyou Iv'a worn smith!!! Can we get back to topic now? I think Ball is basically obliged to meet with us to weigh up his options, I doubt though that there will be a decision announced until probably the nomination deadline, Nov 11...?

Paul Johnson is your favourite player is he not....

Luke Ball is a midfielder, not a backman. It's quite funny how some of these threads derail so quickly...

:D

(Scully and Trengove)'s first games or Scully's and Trengove's first game?

Yes but I think that unless there was a player like Rohan or Cunnington to slide, Butcher would be better than any midfielder available, if he was there at pick 11.

I dunno....maybe because they're rookies? Just throwing it out there.

Have a lie down.

From Schwabby's Twitter - Saturday arvo games galore? Definitely hope so!!
