Part of the problem that has haunted this club has gone. The players, particularly the older ones have been mistreated by the now departed CS. Neeld also last season wanted to push a player, out the door mid season. Other players knew exactly what was going on and were not overly happy about it. Hence Rivers to the cats, and now talk of other senior players wanting out is understandable. The dangling carrot of playing finals football, perhaps even a flag when we are in more trouble than the early settlers is hardly surprising.

Training Photos - Monday, 4th February, 2013 @ Gosch’s Paddock
DEELIGHTED replied to Six6Six's topic in Melbourne Demons
Only obsvervations from still picks, but love Col taking Dawes down, Viney so close to his opposite nearly all the time and Flash looking like he did years back. Hopefully his knee holds up. He could be the biggest pickup for us. -
Bombers scandal: charged, <redacted> and <infracted>
DEELIGHTED replied to Jonesbag's topic in Melbourne Demons
Im not sure if its been mentioned but has not yet banned in AUS, however as it has been banned by the world governing body. Im not sure how that works but will be interesting. -
Im all for optimism as thats all that we have had for a long time but I cant see how Pederson is going to bring experience. Was on the outer at Norf which is not all that great. Roden and Byrnes couldnt get a game one of which @ PAFC. Yes the experience they bring is great but Im excited about the young guns more than the recycled. Dawes however i was rapt to get. On a side note goodluck to Riv. Im stoked for him that he left the club and got a chance and a flag which he deserves.

Great reports guys. On a side note I have also heard from a "recently retired" player also that Clark is not coming along as well as hoped. Here is fingers crossed. As far as im concerned he is our MVP -
Which delisted player would you pick up before ND/PSD
DEELIGHTED replied to GawnWithTheWind's topic in Melbourne Demons
Sam Lonergan for sure. A hard nut ball winner. Cheap. A mate whos an essendon supporter cannot believe it. I think his cousin Jess Lonergan will be snapped up early in the draft. Wont effect us as we wont have any picks. -
Caroline Wilson's descent into gutter journalism
DEELIGHTED replied to titan_uranus's topic in Melbourne Demons
I heard from someone who heard from someone that is was not Greens idea to retire and was well and truly pushed into it and again the club has [censored] off another champion of the club. Whether he would have had an impact or not who knows. -
WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - CAMERON PEDERSEN
DEELIGHTED replied to Hannibal's topic in Melbourne Demons
Well said, I for one think Gys and Cale had alot of upside and let them both develop a bit more. Cale for pick 88??? We should have kept him. Gys for another "big" forward. I am of the opinion we need ball carriers and speed. Im not sure we have done that. Time will tell -
Good luck to Riv, deserves some success, he wont see it at the Dees in the next 2 years.

Swans extra $1,000,000 Salary Cap
DEELIGHTED replied to Sir Why You Little's topic in Melbourne Demons
So the doggies should have the lowest!!!! -
I for one simply dont rate him that highly. Not worth playing overs for. In good sides there are often players which compliment the stars. He is one of these. Without the class around him I doubt whether he would have much impact at all. However if we can get him on a reasonable offer I would be happy to give it a go as we dont have much. Steele sidebum however I rate hugely.

Loyalty?? That word unfortunately has no place in AFL and moreso at the MFC. If I were Riv I would be getting to Geelong as soon as i could. Playing footy for the reason you play footy, finals. With the cleanout we are having that will be atleast 3-4 years of being a threat in finals not just making up the numbers like Norf this year. Riv is one of my faves and I want to see him in a successful side. I reckon his mate Greeny wished he went to collingwood when he had the chance.

Absolute champion of this club. Congrats greeny and credit to you for the way you have carried yourself along your afl journey.

On a positive note this week is Brad Greens 250th game. Although the last 2 seasons have been pretty lean I think we should remember what a great player he has been for this club. Still remember him beating Carlton off his own boot in 2000. Hes been a fine role model for the youngsters since he was drafted and has been a fine figure for this great footy club. I for one will be there on sat and although I dont agree that it happens I hope the boys give it their all, and get up for the former skipper. Well done Greeny.

Does the Russiian go on to vets list next year and davey? I think greeny has done a bit of coaching with the tas u-18s over the years so def into the coaching game. I think it wise to keep him on for 1 more if he gets a kick for the rest of the year. Purely as insurance and I know i will get bottled over this but other than Jnr he has been one of the greatest servants of this club in recent times. Sometimes sheer brilliant. The next few week will tell us where hes at. Col- i still love and think with some form and a no-nonsense coaching group he will thrive. Bail, Ricky-Bobby, Bate lets see what we can get and Morton, I simply dont know. Big Steph- hold on again for insurance Cook- give him a crack but i like the way hes apparently developing Dunn- def keep purely for the MO

I dont care a bout pace, size or hair colour. I just want someone that can kick a drop punt to a target, lay atackle without getting shrugged away, keep their feet and kick goals from 20m. Thats is all. Oh and go hard at it.

If Wines is good now imagine how good he will be when he "matures"????

Play Jack Viney at Casey in '13 so we get picks 3 & 4.
DEELIGHTED replied to Range Rover's topic in Melbourne Demons
one of the silliest threads ever. Let the kid play, Where? Hopefully with us. The idea of keeping him back for the good of the MFC is plain ludicrous. May have been mentioned but what if he gets a freak injury and prevents him from playing afl whilst trudging around in the vfl. No teenager in the country would go with this idea. If we get him with whatever pick so be it, if we get a number 1 or 2 draft pick for pick 3 or 4 its a bonus. -
also played a few games for burnie or devonport it the tassie league

Mongrel and hardness - are we finally starting to see it?
DEELIGHTED replied to Hatchman's topic in Melbourne Demons
There is also nothing worse than trying annoy the F%$# out of a player and get no response. Also you the annoyer looks pretty silly if they keep going when the "victim" just ignores it and goes and gets the footy.
