Rather than going into a bidding war with the Hawks for Hale, who I think could add something to our structue but I still see an element of risk and lack of ability to ally forward pressure, we should be chasing this guy who suits our age profile and much more of a sure thing.

This guy would be the ideal forward/ruck and at his age could still improve.

I just don't understand why we are not going hard here. It would take at least our pick 12, perhaps that is a no go zone for our club but a chance to add a player of his ability that is proven who could give upto 10 years is worth it.

He may also be on a typical lion back ended deal but we would have the room.

I really think he is the right player for us and although he has said he will be happy to stay, he has not categorically ruled out a move. That door is ajar and we should be trying to open it.

    Sounds like the door might be closed on Clark. If it's even slightly ajar, I'd be asking Brisbane what would get the deal across the line.

    No need to do anything silly, but negotiate with an open mind.

    That's what TH has previously stated during the season. I'm sure all options would have been explored in the big man department on the first day of trade; the "feelers" would have been put out then. Like I stated earlier in another thread, if Brisbane lose Clark, Voss should be shot. He should stay at Brisbane.

    Maybe the Lions were the team inquiring about Watts & Trengove, in response to our desire for Clark?

    Put simply, it would take a hell of a lot to pry Clark away from the Lions.

    What is going on at Brisbane its a real mess with so many defections.

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • 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.
