On the Hot Breakfast.

Article heading image for Eddie's Suggestion For Melbourne's New Facility

Eddie McGuire revealed this morning where he would look to relocate the Melbourne Football Club if he was in charge of the Demons. 

The Melbourne board revealed at their recent AGM that they are looking for a new permanent training & administration base.

LISTEN HERE:

 

Eddie has suggested that Port Melbourne would be an ideal base for the Demons going forward. 

 

"I'd go to Port Melbourne, I'd go and do a deal with Port Melbourne and build a magnificent facility down there," Eddie said. 

"I'd even try and do a deal with Port Melbourne (football club) to make them the VFL team, they wear the same colours."

2020 VFL Season - to go or not

I am thinking of giving the VFL a miss in 2020.  I feel that my passion is gone, as very year the comp loses more and more of its soul and is essentially the AFL reserves in disguise.  The loss of the reserves competition in 2017 is probably the straw that broke the camel's back.  How are the stand alone sides meant to develop players without reserves?  The gap between local footy and the VFL is Now for 2020 the lists and salary cap has been cut again.  It is ridiculous when one player on an AFL reserves team is getting paid more than the whole VFL list.
