G'day fellow Demons Supporters!

Apparently Marc Murphy from Carlton is yet to sign with them for 2009 onwards. Should we chase after him and take him with the prized number 1# in the Pre-Season Draft?

Here's a link to some information about him: http://www.footypost.com.au/carlton/player...ontract-players

I doubt he would leave the Blues, but I still think it's worth chasing him especially as he only about 21 years old and was the number 1# Draft pick a few years ago.

Any thoughts? What would it take to entice him to become a Demons player?

Wonder why Carltank have not signed him? Could be he is overseas still on holiday. But if there is "Trouble at mill" i would hope that the MFC would check out all avenues. Would be a great pick up in the PSD $$ permitting. It would be a great time to get him. He is good but not yet a Champion so his Price may be attainable.

Rumour is he's only not signed because the club were holding off on his contract (with Murhpy's approval) while they were waiting to see if they got O'Keefe or anyone in trade week.

He was willing to have his contract front or back ended so that they could fit a player like O'Keefe into their salary cap. Him not signing is a greater show of commitment then just immediately signing a contract. It's a mere formality and not even really worth discussing

Melbourne here is your chance to nab the best young talent this country has to offer i know Franklin etc etc are still young but I believe there a little older than murphy. Melbourne PLEASE move heaven and Earth to get this young gun! He is awesome, will win a brownlow or two. Lets get back at Carlton for taking Judd. Throw as much cash as we can at murphy and maybe he might leave visyboard god i hate carlton lets stick it right up em!!! GO DEES!

Why would he not want to play with Judd? It seems everyone else does. Not a chance in Hell that he'll enter the PSD, but even if he does, I wouldn't want to throw the money we saved on Matthew "Jesus" Warnock away just to pick up a player with less potential than him.

It's not going to happen people...

But it's worth inquiring, if for no other reason than to push his price up!

There is NO WAY known he will be leaving Carlton. Carlton "have cap room" don't forget. He will be well looked after at Carlton, and he will sign a nice 3-4 deal no doubt about it.

Even if he wanted to leave Carlton, his asking price is most likely out of our price range.

It is nice to dream, but the truth is the MFC is about as attractive a destination as the war torn middle east. Marc will not be joining us in 09.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
