I reckon we should trade pick 18 if the deal is right. Andreas Everitt from the Dogs may net a pick 18 - be nice to secure him before the big clubs.

Whether McLean wanted out or he was pushed, it was nice we didn't cave into Carlton's demands.

Here I was thinking I 'nailed it'

...and that made me think of that terrible ad for hair dye where a couple are fencing and - after being hit - the woman says 'you nailed me'.

Your post was almost as bad :P

the MFC thinking has never been more in line with my thinking before and for this reason, I'm excited.

Can't argue with that.

pick 11 will be extremely valuable we get in with 3 first round draft picks before the top 6 teams of this year get a look in I really think

Interesting. Never looked at it like that. And many of the other teams getting picks before the top 6 are no threat to us, and are in much worse shape.

I'm not massively into Everitt, but I'm all for trading for something. Looking at mock drafts, and coming up with names, I'm not particularly enthused. Trading pick 18 for more of a known quantity would be sensational in this era of hoping for the best with drafting 18 year olds.

Brock's decision explained here

This will be a win for both parties. Good luck Chook.

Yep, thanks M9. You're never going to please everyone regarding training location, but the closer you are to the city, the more chance you'll have. Good luck to Brock at Carlton. Hopefully the Fev gets traded so his passes will be bouncing off the chests of Fisher and Yarran.

Bock Mc What? Is this some sort of new meal deal?

If at Brocks age his back seizes up and his hamstrings tighten on the trip to or from Casey, I suggest he not play the Geelong or interstate games. :rolleyes:

What is he thinking ?!

"I will always have friends at the club and Melbourne will win a premiership sooner than a lot of other clubs in the competition. They are about to see some reward and within four to six years you will see them there on the last day in September," he said.

That Carlton will win one first and that he's going to be a bigger part of that one.

I understand that thinking. It's obvious. But to actually say what he said about Melb winning one in 4-6, and walk. Seriously. :wacko:

The interesting part in the Brock article is what's unsaid.

Inevitably diminishing role in Dees midfield year-by-year vs. Ratten telling him "where he saw me fitting in" to Blues' midfield.

IMO everything else (including the money, and the drive to Casey FCS!) is fluff.

How would you know?

The money is also tied to the diminished role in the midfield. There was no way he could be justified on the existing contracted amount.

It called good media management. Nothing to get tied up on.

Hopefully we win that first Flag Against Carlton...That would remind Brock of his poor decision making.

What really gets up my CRUITS with this story in the Sun Today is that Brock States "I had a s..t year this year, everybody knows that" Would that not give someone incentive to really go Flat Out next year, considering the amount of new Midfield Talent as competition....or do what Brock did. Leave on a note of poor form with his Taiil between his legs.

Oh & For the Record. Brock Mclean you look appalling wearing a Carlton Jumper, even though that TOOL Andy Maher had a stiffy this Morning!! :lol:

Just my opinion, that Brock would be motivated more by the role than the money. May well have been both.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 15th January 2025

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
