    Get Martin Flanagan to write or edit it & i would buy it for sure.

    I wonder if Matty Knights is a dart board from the Bombers Mag yet?? That was the worst Essendon effort i have ever seen last sunday....Fantastic Entertainment!! B)

    Too much money to produce for not enough sales volume.

    The way the club has been communicating with us online costs them virtually nothing and does the job because it is accessible to everyone.

    That's just it - what more could they possibly tell us that they don't already?

    Do you want the club witholding some of the information we do currently get so that they have some material for the magazine?

    Do you really want to pay more for info you get for free now?

    Its not just what they could tell us, it gets the name out there and shows off the great club we are. Depends on how much advertising they could sell to make it a worthwhile exercise. Most in the AFL have no idea of the Dee train that is coming their way. They still think of us as a bottom 8 side.

    Don't be afraid to promote this team, they could easily be the biggest thing in AFL within a couple of years.

    Newspaper circulations are falling and many magazines are struggling.

    Any perceived benefits wouldn't be worth a loss-making venture.

    If anything, keep putting resources into online communication and put the rest into outreach programs targetted at specific populations (ie. universities).

    Perhaps they should consider selling memberships at newsagents instead, there are several areas where our support is fairly high and they could offer the newsagents $5 for each one they sell. This would have to be tacked on to the price of course but it would mean you could buy your membership on a Saturday or Sunday if you were too busy during the week.

    I tend to agree-i think the "online" articles and blogs are great, as they can be read on a phone or PC.

    The Internet is open on Saturdays & Sundays. I'm yet to hear a reasonable excuse along the lines of accessibility of membership.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
