    He upped the IQ level of North Heidelberg by 95%. The only good thing to ever come out of there!!!!!!!

    I'm sure a year or two back, Jack Grimes acknowledged Wheatley's help as both mentor and sometime coach of some of the younger/newer boys at the club.

    At the time I was a little surprised because foolishly I didn't think Paul looked the mentor/coach type. But Grimes was quite effusive in his praise. And last year when I briefly talked to Paul at a function he seemed very level headed and knowledgeable.

    Good to see him putting something back into the game (frankly after that monster roost from full back against the Saints last season, I half expected him to go to the US and try out as a punter).

    I watched him play for my old team St Pauls in the SFL last week, he absolutely dominated.

    Maybe we can have In: Wheatley, Out: Bruce. (please people don't overreact).

    I swear Wheatley kicked a goal from 60 against the saints in his final game with his hamstring torn in half, loved it.

    People don't over-react when posters post stupid, ridiculous, passive-aggressive comments.

    And some posters are very perdantic.

    I would love to see Wheaters go to states to try a kickers role.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
