Although we are $9 longshots,i think we are a real chance today,IF we all come to play.

Let's give Brucey a great and memorable win in his 200th.

FWIW,i've taken those $9 odds.

Yeah you should have. Against Decent Opposition we have no mid field. It's too obvious.

I agree,time to trade Brock while we can still get something for him.

So you have gone from thinking we have a good enough team to beat Geelong at the cattery to wanting to trade Brock McLean?

The two hours of footy I saw wasn't that bad.

Reality people - we only beat two interstate sides on the G, who had their best players out (Cox and Kerr) or out of form (Cornes, Tredrea, Burgoyne, and Pearce).

Our only possible wins to finish the year will be against Richmond and Fremantle. Let's hope one of them turns up on the day and we finish on 4 wins.

Your opinion, BUT there is no way MFC will trade Brock Mclean.

Very good player who will have a great season next year when he has a full pre-season. His clearance stats this year have been very impressive.

Possible future captain and works well in the media. He has shown his commitment to MFC with his generous donation to the club.

Lets no forget Brock is still young and is a few years off his best footy. Patience please.

Since i saw Brock's debut against Freo at Subi in 2004,he has played less than 10 outstanding games and i mean OUTSTANDING,he's been mostly average at best.He doesn't work hard enough between contests when he doesn't have the ball.In the next few weeks,let's see how long he can run with Cousins and Judd,that's how hard the top mids work,he wouldn't keep up and Cousins is 6 years older.

Yes,he's been injured a lot but is he much worth to us with the amount of time he's fully fit.

And captaincy,forget it.Others have had much better seasons in the last 6 years since Brock's debut.

You don't reward mediocrity.Anyone who knows anything about AFL will tell you Brock has has 6 mediocre seasons at best as well as many off field indescretions.

Brock was fantastic in 2006. So many games he was influential in the midfield and was able to kick a couple a game.

Then in round 1 2007 after a solid opening qtr he did his ankle.

I have no doubt injuries have curtailed his career at the moment.

Needs to play well against good teams, not just against crap interstate teams at the G.

We don't need him now or in the future.Soon our midfield will consist of:

Possibly 2 of Scully,Trengove or Morabito and

Blease

Jones

Sylvia

Grimes

Jetta...recruited as a mid and will get his chance

Strauss

And Davey,Green and Bruce can rotate through there.

Trade Brock while we can get something for him.

    TRAINING: Tuesday 28th May 2024

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin returned to the training track to bring you the following observations from Gosch's Paddock this morning. Beautiful morning for training. The dew has dried, out from AAMI, quiet chatting. Maysie does his heart symbol. 7 in rehab, Turner, Hore, Sestan, BBB, Petty, Spargo and Schache. All in runners. Melky weighted and change of angles work. Salem has his individual program. White cap (no contact), Howes, Woewodin and Sparrow

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w

    GAMEDAY: Rd 11 vs St. Kilda

    It's Game Day and after 2 losses on the trot the Dees must win against the Saints today at the MCG to keep in touch with the Top 4. A loss today will see them drop out of the Top 8 for the first time since 2020.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th
