To good! I'll second that and throw in Robert Copeland.


Greg Bentley has apparently been delisted

What about Wall from Casey. Only 21 198cm key backman was in the VFL team of the year, won their B&F and was impressive in the televised game against Sandy earlier in the year.

What about A Wall from Casey. 3m tall, not very mobile, poor leap, but tough as bricks. Not a great tackler, but he makes up for that with his great bumping skills. Has lightning reflexes. Handpass the ball to him and you'll get it back just as quickly. Never caught holding the ball. Can play in any position. Great endurance - never gets tired. A good prospect.

Seriously, just pick up a kid and give him a chance. "Better the devil you know than the devil you don't" does not apply in the PSD.

One could say that it would add structure and support to the team Chook


If Tom Lonergan was delisted, he would be in contention. Hard to see him being delisted but you never know...

Ferguson.

I have a feeling that with a big pre-season in the gym, he'll be a player.

As long as he hits the weights..but he'll have to be careful of Sylvia when backing up.

Thats interesting. I know nothing except that Bailey thought he was ok.

Charlie Gardiner

Please use the specific thread to discuss Charlie Gardiner. Not that there is much to discuss.

Ha, yeah sorry. Just feel there should be one place for all these names to go, rather than starting new threads for every delisted hack

Given that the PSD has been totally emasculated as a result of the AFL's own new drafting and trading rules including allowing players to nominate for the National Draft who normally would have only been available previously in the PSD, the club should apply (along with West Coast) to have our priority selection at the start of the first round instead of at the start of the second.

That would make the draft order for Melbourne 1, 3, 19 instead of 1, 17, 19 and West Coast 2, 4, 20 instead of 2, 18, 20. Not much of a change and I'm sure Andy Demetriou would be sympathetic to this proposal because he seems to be a person who believes in giving the lowly clubs a fair go.

Departures by Club

It's like all my Christmas' have come at once! We simply must get Sam Iles, or Bryce Campbell, Luke McEntree or Chris Schmidt.

Who's this Weetra guy? Sounds awesome

haha, he sure is a caring and sharing person Vlad, isnt he? Just look at the draw he handed us today as further proof of how highly he values us, as opposed to the Pies.

Keep dreaming. But, this does prove the point that we should NOT use a pick in the PSD. Every player (probably 99%) nominated for the PSD will also be nominated for the ND, so if we're going to use one less pick in the ND to save to use in the PSD, we may as well just take the same player in the ND.

Leigh Brown could be a handy short term (preseason draft) acquisition to bolster our forwardline for 2 years. Not sure of his age.

We need to take the pressure off our youngsters, while our young forwards to be recruited develope their bodies confidance & game.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?
