So, where to from here with pick 2?
Roger Mellie replied to Whispering_Jack's topic in Melbourne Demons
They've activated a compensation pick (couldn't tell you which, probably traded from another club) -
Stated (so not necessarily as fact) on SEN this morning that Roos was spotted having a coffee with SOS today - lets hope sealing the Adams deal!
-
Brad Miller joins Roos' coaching panel
Roger Mellie replied to MadAsHell's topic in Melbourne Demons
Is coaching a new thing for Miller? What's he been doing since 'retiring' from the tiges? (Apart from gaping at his wife, which could fill your day anyway) -
Bummer! Would have been nice to sneak off with Perris. He probably wont get quite so far in the draft now.
-
On a separate note. What does anyone know of: Horlin-Smith - I think he's contracted but would love him at the Dees Schroder - Don't know anything about him other than winning the Liston Murdoch - Reminds me a bit of Isaac Smith Cowan - Injury and contract status?
-
Better than Richmond trying to wrangle pick 1 out of a direct trade
-
Gysberts probably would have been a gun 10 or so years ago, but not the way the game's played now. If you cant run and spread you have to be carried, so he's out. Time to move on
-
Garlett features in the wee paper again today. He has to be an angel compared to Dusty. I wonder if Roos will drop by. PS Pennant - any further thoughts on Garlett since your last excellent write-up? Is he likely to build a tank?
-
Adams or Swallow I'd love Martin, but he's too high a risk and a [censored] to boot
-
I hope they're interviewing him for the part-time ruck coaching role
-
A site run by a troll? That'll last!
-
Hardly his strongest quality - or anywhere near it.
-
I remember during Neeld's first (or one of the earliest) media interviews done by Neeld. One of the journo's asked him what his strongest quality was as a coach - Neeld said "building relationships" LOL
-
I don't think he has, but that's just me
-
Who were the eight Dees that Roos spoke to?
Roger Mellie replied to Deespicable's topic in Melbourne Demons
Yes -
I think the arguments against trading for Yarran are well reasoned and solid - so I thought I'd just yell instead! FWIW, I acknowledge his attributes and I wouldn't be against picking him up cheaply, like if he walked to us in the PSD or we were forced to sacrifice, I dunno, Strauss or something, but that's about it.
-
NO TO YARRAN FFS Now move on Thanks
-
I'd just take the 'free' sign
-
Terlich - very ordinary disposal
-
Geelong v Casey Scorpions Qualifying Final
Roger Mellie replied to KC from Casey's topic in Melbourne Demons
L Tynan x 2? Barry x 2? -
Bad luck - I'm pretty sure Bail is contracted until next year
-
Quite possibly but whopping error if Choco is still on the radar
-
I dont know if this has been mentioned elsewhere and cant be fagged scrolling back through threads but did anyone listen to the interview with Glen Bartlett on the MFC website called " Glen Bartlett Reveals Coach Candidates" There's no direct discussion of candidates per se (aside from Bartlett saying he's not prepared to discuss much at this point), rather footage of what I can only assume are the candidates for the job. The footage shows: Roos, Eade, Voss and Craig I think it would be reasonable to assume that the coach is out of that lot. The absence of Choco footage would lead me to believe, he's not on the AFL's MFC's list, given the title of the interview.

Not sure if serious

Rischitelli (when fit) would be our 2nd or 3rd best mid at the moment. Jones would be ahead of him, Viney will be and Sylvia can be when he puts his mind to it. I assume he would come fairly cheaply so would happily take him for a couple of years if it means not having to toss up between Roden, Nicho and Bail for that last midfield spot.
