Replace Darcy with Young and Serong with Brayshaw. That is what to expect.Serong has been the only Christmas Day announcement though, Darcy was a couple of weeks before Christmas.

Good question you may well ask yourself.
Andy looked pretty stoked witht he Young sign on the other day.As did they all.
With the Young signing, it makes me even more confident that Andy will sign.
Yeah, this. And I reckon the Serong announcement kind of backfired, in that the re-signing got no press (outside WA) because it was announced when the whole industry was basically closed for a couple of weeks. Was great for highly engaged members/supporters but a waste from a club marketing perspective. Hence Darcy (and now young) being announced a couple of weeks before Christmas rather than Xmas day.Serong has been the only Christmas Day announcement though, Darcy was a couple of weeks before Christmas.

Thatās my suspicion anyway. If so, then there will be no Brayshaw announcement until the new year.

Yep that's it
There is literally no point devoting any energy stressing about it. It will happen in due course, likely very soon. Just enjoy the holidays.

It's pretty spot on, don't have to like it but it is, what it is.Soooo you are using a movie scene for evidence?
Is it really though? I agree it is valuable for a lot of things, but doesn't that make burning it for energy make even less sense?

I'm not suggesting green energy is a great ambition, but the reality is we are unlikely to see the day that we aren't reliant on fossil fuels in some part, in our life time.

Firstly, why tf are you sharing politcal nonsense on the 2025 list management thread.
Secondly, that show is a republican wet dream and is designed to stroke their egos. If you want to share your opinions online then I suggest you actually do some research on the topic so you don't spread misinformation.

A flat out no is most likely.
Or it will be something outrageous like 3 firsts and Jackson's first born.

So are we expecting the announcement tomorrow for Banfield's 10 year deal?

Melbourne might see more value to holding him to his contract than rebuilding early. We won't know until late in season 2025. This all heavily hinges on where the Demons finish.

banners haters will hate this but I think he would be one of our few listed players that could actually survive another 10 years of footy.
doesn't matter tho cos all I want for christmas is a big, ginormous, Cornes-maddening, purple haze inducing, threemantle-building sized Bae-shaw contract. thanks San-ta-lands, hail Mundy

I reckon this Melbourne rebuilding talk is a little exaggerated.
Itās gone under the radar a bit but they have taken 4 picks inside the top 13 in 2023 and 2024 alone.
Harvey Langford - 6
Xavier Lindsay - 10
Caleb Windsor - 7
Koltyn Tholstrup - 13
They also took Jefferson the year previously with pick 15 as a beanpole tall forward but not sure how heās developing.
A lot depends on how those guys mentioned above develop of course, like every club that hits the draft, but when you consider the likes of Pickett, JVR, Judd McVee and Rivers all are 23 and under and look like long-term quality AFL players they are certainly not in dire straits.
Iād still take Melbournes youth over several other clubs including west coast.
Will be really interesting to see how Pickett performs now next year with all the speculation.
Fair point. I think a lot of the drama centred around the likes of Petracca and Oliver potentially leaving. Still seems a good chance that one or both could jump ship next year. Could go either way with Melbourne. They have added some good youth but lose some of that top end talent and it will move to full rebuild. It seems they are refreshing their list a little for sure.
