Bailey Laments Cost of Interstate Recruits

Dean Bailey, sided by ex-Melbourne recruitment manager Barry Prendergast, has expressed his dissapointment at the club's inability to fund the relocation of 2008 recruits Jamie Benell, Neville Jetta, to a lesser extend Rohan Bail along with 2007 Number 4 selection Cale Morton.

The mistake has led to the sacking of Prendergast, and a new hiring of recruitment Benjamin Jenkins, a 14 year old who can be paid minimum wage who resides within 400 metres of the MCG. Luckily for the MFC, the only talent pool Benjamin will have access to is his Under-15 side and possibly the Under-16 side.

"Unfortunately Ben will not have access to Seniors matches as they play on the Sunday, and his parents want that to be his homework day" Bailey said. Ben's sister attends his Saturday football matches, and The Age understands that the family would like Mr. Jenkins to attend his sister's Sunday Ballet.

Morton, a boom recruit who starred in his first handfull of matches, began to visibly wane on field towards the latter part of the season. Supporters' wondered why his kicking fell away as the season wore on, but it has since become clear it was solely due to the fact that the club could not feed him.

Craig Cameron, the Demon recruitment manager of the time, was quoted off the record as laughing at the Demons expressing distainfully that he had truly "stuck it up the f#$%rs" by selecting the WA teenager.

Prendergast, attending his last official engagement as an MFC employee, was clearly upset by his incorrect decisions.

"I should've picked players I didn't rate" was all that Barry could muster in his defence. Claiming, ridiculously, that he thought picking better players, regardless of where they spent their formative years, would help the club.

"Oh God! Why the hell did I pick Jamie Bennel at pick 35, I could've had Ashley Smith and the club wouldn't be in financial ruin."

Bailey defended his team's recruitment strategies, explaining that the predicament was "the sole reason we picked Jack Watts."

KILO WATTS!!

(Jack stacks on 6 kilo's over summer...)

My guess is that he started to read it and thought it was genuine, then felt stupid. Either that or he was being a vindictive little...

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
