Hawthorn spy found up a tree

Jon Pierik

April 3, 2011 "MELBOURNE and Hawthorn have re-ignited their spy games as the two clubs prepare for the twilight clash at the MCG today.

The Demons asked a Hawthorn spy to leave a closed Melbourne training session at Casey Fields in Cranbourne on Friday after he was caught monitoring the Demons from up a tree. After he was noticed, the spy was ordered to leave, which he did."

Can anyone Identify, the Guilty man.

The old man looked up from his one dying eye, and said >>>> Thats him?

"It is believed the Hawks may have been particularly interested in the fitness of Melbourne's key defender James Frawley, who is set to return from injury today. Frawley is expected to spend time on Lance Franklin.

The Hawks had been worried clubs were trying to film their sessions from houses surrounding their training ground."

    We did it last year to them

    I stood right next to a West Coast "spy" year at a training session.

    This really isn't news

    Someone else might remember the actual name, but this was being talked about on Triple M yesterday (maybe Friday) and it was apparently the assistant to the guy who normally spies for them. Piggy Dunstall was being asked about it and said that seeing clubs hadn't agreed to not spy then there's no reason why they shouldn't too, despite the fact they were the ones kicking up a stink about it.

    No, but I find it humorous.

    Don't you see the funny side of it all?

    I reckon a spy at training just shows we've really got 'em worried. It does far more for the spyee (us) than it does for the spyer (them).

    We've been caught out doing some funny spy tactics to the Hawks over the years.

    Fair game as far as I'm concerned. Pretty tough to have a closed session these days.

    • 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.

      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.
