Which is why we bid on Mills in the last draft (though more than happy to have Oliver)!

I think that you will find that he is more committed to MFC than that. I think the chance of playing in the first Demons Premiership for over half a Century would mean more to him than the money (particularly when he has suffered through the dark years)!

I predict that we will see them both re-signing well before season's end. I reckon Watts will re-sign also and be one of our key players this year.

I am presuming that Petracca and Trengrove might be two of the players that you referred to as 'etc'?

Gym or Practice Match? Match wins!

Now remind me what we used the pick 94 that we traded him for?

Great report Tas!

Collingwood plan to use him up forward.

How many games did Voldemort play if any?

Even our runner (Cross) will be fitter than most of them!

My only observation is that there will be ten very pixxed off "Top-Up" players should the current 'player's appeal' get up! What a shambles for Essendon FC team structures if it occurs part-way into the season and they have to try to re-integrate their twelve stars who haven't had a pre-season or are (officially) privy to the strategies rehearsed by their new coach during the off-season! I only hope that it happens the week before they play us!

Maybe we can trade Terlich for a first round pick?

Certainly Essendon supporters don't care. Membership is up on last year and over double ours!

It is an absolute disgrace! I have been an MCC member for 49 years and have supported the MCC Football Club (as it was once called) for well over sixty years. Chuck all these newcomers* off our ground is what I say! * Richmond, Collingwood, Hawthorn, Carlton, Esendon.

If we are getting a "top-up" on the same basis as Essendon, he will need to have been on an AFL list over the last two years!

Another example of the AFL going it alone, and adopting different standards to the rest of the World's sporting bodies. In any other sport, medals/trophies "won" whilst using performance-enhancing (banned) drugs would be automatically forfeited!

And in the meantime, another player for Casey!

W J Maybe you should circulate your article to the other sixteen Clubs before they finalise their response? I so much want Port to trump Essendon and poach Jamar!

I guess that this should not come as too great a surprise WJ, after all he had a good mentor in AD!

Not too silly an idea. Not only would it: 1) allow us Cross's experience and skill, (for both MFC & Casey); 2) free up a salary in our 2016 coaching budget (which will increase our flexibility); 3) give us a player intimately familiar with Roos/Goodwin's game plan; and 4) be popular with the playing group.

Nice to see the article in this morning's paper saying that Port are after Jamar as a "top-up" player to cover for Ryder and Montfries. Be excellent if it happened and Essendon had one of their ruck coaches poached! http://www.theage.com.au/afl/essendon-and-port-want-mark-jamar-20160129-gmh1jk.html
