ok boys

ive got a friend in the television sports media.

im sure that if i could convince him that there was a positive story about melbourne hed do a report on it.

ive suggested comparing this preseason to last preseason, when we had a lot less players fit, trained all over the place, and didnt have goal posts till round 4, whereas this year we are training early, less injured players, and have a ground with goalposts already

not to mention we have cut a lot of debt

and jimmy and dean seem to finally be changing the culture of the club for the better, and weeding out the crap elements and people as they go.

his exact words when i discussed this with him were, yeah but that'll take years.

it took geelong a decade, i replied.

anyway, ideas!

These things are all good but they're not very news-worthy.

well mate when we actually SEAL THE DEAL on

-Casey

-MCG trainng facility

-MCC deal

or any such things we have been looking into we will need some good exposure for it, so good onya for whatever you can do

Also Saturday week we will be the proud owners of one J. Watts so I nice little puff piece talking about he and McLean and Morton etc would be good!

easy: talk about the demon summit and how positive the day turned out to be

interview jack grimes, high tower, 45hotgod's mum, whispering jack and one of stynes/conolly/bailey/schwab and talk of some of the concepts that were discussed

then talk about casey fieds

3 minutes, national nine news, tick

This story would be guaranteed to hit the papers. Say we are looking at Cousins with our our pick number 1 in PSD.

A few days later we get another story saying he doesn't fit into our plan for the revival of the Dees. Then point out some of the guys we are developing, McNamara, Cheney, Aussie, Spencer, Maric, Grimes, Martin, Garland etc.

anyway, ideas!

1. We have the number 1 draft pick. Surely he could do a story about the selection process to determine who to take?

2. What about a piece on Demonland and the sad minds of the internet forum user?

3. He could do an interview with DemonRuckle who would explain how he spent most of last year at the pub drowning his sorrows with FatCat & Hector the Safety Cat and how great it is to be back at the club. Only problem is that I don't think he can talk.
