    Warnocks best days are behind him.

    Rivers and Garland's history of injury will always be in the back of everybody's mind.

    Plus, hopefully Garland will have a full preseason and be at peak fitness- he may be used up forward a lot more.

    Hopefully the likes of Jack fitzpatrick will follow Scully's examples he sets over summer and fasttracks his development somewhat- i'd certainly like to see him given a shot or two in the forward line during the pre-season comp and maybay an early home and away game or two!

    Another key backman just starting to find his way in his 3rd season in 2013 is extactly what we will need- there should be a good number of options available at pick 12- unless there is a KPF who for whatever reason slides to us at 12 and is the best player available then obviously we take him.

    Who knows, maybe we show MacNamara a little faith and he finally comes good.

    other than that happening, we should go defense first this draft.

    Warnock carried the backline well through some tough times, had a shocker in a come back game against Port but his best days are far from behind him.

    If he was put on the market you would have 12 clubs or more lining up for him.

    Garland - will not be a forward, he and Frawley are our key defenders, end of story. What is it with this continuing call? Good season by Riv and Col G - injuries could be behind these two, hopefully.

    Rivers will be Vice Captain at worst of MFC.

    • 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.
