Ha ha ha. Welcome to the blue boys Robbie. Wise choice.

Until you guys get better as a club, you're not gonna land anyone. The fact a player chooses not to come to the Dees doesn't make them weak or gutless, they're just looking after there best interests. I wouldn't move to a team that's going to be down the bottom of the ladder for five years either.

<_< I wonder what Kreuzer will be on next contract? Or Murphy? Or Gibbs? Stevo? Walker? Fev? And the Judd-ernaut? Will some of them be on as much as Warnock?? I cannot wait in 3 years time to see the Carlton crew scrambling once the Salary Cap limit has been breached again.....at least I hope that is the case....for they can then sing those 'Blues'. One thing is for certain, is that Carlton will go down in history forever with asterisks next to their name (* = cheats), whilst the Melbournefc will always be known as the original proudest and oldest club of the AFL, rich in history. One that has yielded 12 premierships and played in many successful era's (with NO asterisks mind you). Unlike Carlton who has bought their way to premierships every now and then. :D

Look this war of words could go on for a long time but i'm pretty sure with Icke and Swann in charge our salary cap is in very safe hands. Safer hands then the revolving door that is Melbourne Footy Club footy department.

With a departing Ackland who was on 300k a year and the majority of our team on practically base wages, 400k to secure a player who has already played senior footy, has a shitload of development left and will top off a very promising ruck division in the future is a good move. I expect Warnock to hold his own next year. Much better then waiting 4 for years (2 of them at 55k base pay a year, and the next two on 200k if they're even good enough to be re-signed). Not to mention the thousands and thousands of dollars that would go into developing a 17yo kid in the first place. 400k isn't cheap, but a bargain when you take in the needs of our club. We don't have time to wait those years.

Carlton have the footy department in place, the talent in place, and soon we'll have the facilities in place aswell.

Dwelling on the past is merely a way for other supporters to continue to bag out a young, exciting club that is clearly gonna be a force in the near future.

As bleak as it is, look to the future Dees, just like we had to do for years. Then be as happy as i am now to see your club climb out of the turmoil and threaten the league again.

Make the finals and then come back and talk to us.

You've been nothing since 2002.

It's not dwelling on the past as I see it, it's just bringing a few facts to light of what has happened at Carlton.

Yes, well make the most of it while you can, because we won't be as far behind Carltank as what you might think,......

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
