http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/2017-09-12/end-of-season-injury-summary makes it sound like Colin is going around again.

Love to see him do an Eric Mackenzie and force his way back in - loyal player who has been through all the bad times.

 

[LeverPuller]

ANB should be in 2019...

I would love to see some movement before the start of next season on Trac, OMac, TMac, Braysh, Jetta & Gawn.

Would offer Trac 5 years at least.

Fixing now
Oops

 

[Crimson Azure]

Vince given a one year contract.

You know this or is it just hope?
Garland is not best 22.

A fit Garland yes. I cant stand the bloke, but he is not a dud.

 

[schmuttt]

A fit Garland yes. I cant stand the bloke, but he is not a dud.

Was fit in 15/16 and offered little.

 

[Sando22]

I like him, not sure why you can't stand him.
Is not best 22 when fit or not.

 

[LeverPuller]

Will update tonight

I'm happy to be proven wrong.

Unfortunately I'm still not sold on Oscar. He's been given a lot chances but he hasn't made big improvement. Goody persisted with him every week, but I don't think we got enough out him other than a couple of 'good' games. Perhaps he should be in the twos learning the craft and building confidence, improving his decision making.

Coaching team have essentially stuck by him as a key back for nearly two seasons. After that, next season would be a strange time to send him back to the magoos to learn his craft. Not sure who we'd replace him with either, so unless we trade for another key back, he's as locked in to the starting team as Hogan, Oliver, Petracca, Jones, Viney, etc are.

I think Oscar showed huge improvement this year TBH and would have played ahead of Garland if he was fit IMO.

BenKen delisted!

BenKen delisted!

Bit strange how this all played out for him. He played 15 games under Roos and was pretty decent in many of those games. Played what appeared on paper at least to be some decent games in the VFL but unlike a lot of the guys at the club did not even get one shot at AFL level this year. Guess he just wasn't in Goodwins plans.

 

[schmuttt]

Mitch King signed on for 2018 and Maynard till 2019.

 

[LeverPuller]

Updated with Maynard, King and Lever.

 

[rhaz]

Filipovic signed another 1 year rookie deal so we no longer have any uncontracted players.

Bugg?

 

[LeverPuller]

Bugg?

Think he has next year too.

 

[Sellout Scully]

Bugg?

The article about Filipovic says: "The 200cm beanpole was the only remaining uncontracted Demon, after fellow rookie Corey Maynard and second-year big man Mitch King re-signed this week."

I'm taking this to mean Tom Bugg is contracted for next year

 

[pjfairbairn]

There hasn't been an announcement for Bugg, but I guess that means that they are simply spreading them out. Glad he's hanging around, FWIW

Footywire has Harley Balic contracted to end 2018, Jake Lever end 2022 [not 2021].

 

[Demon 16]

Footywire is a great resource, but it's not uncommon for the odd error to be found there.

I'm certain Lever got a 4 year deal, not 5.

Sure he did as well, but wouldn't it be from 2018?

 

[Cannon82]

18, 19, 20, 21...

 

[Willo 17]

18, 19, 20, 21...

Thanks, been in SA too long I think. Time to go home.

 

[Demon 16]

Yep.

I can't elaborate on Cannon82's eloqence, above.

Four years ends in 2021.
