Todd Viney created two records tonight. He is the first father to call out his son's name at the draft and he was the only manager to record an error in his selections.

    He called the number of a draftee incorrectly and the AFL guys called error and he reread it. Not a big deal though.

    I guess an easy mistake to make when the drafts have such long reference numbers. I was thinking to myself earlier i wonder how many mistakes are made.

    Thanks redleg

    Surprised no-one picked up Dale Roberts

    Our propaganda plan seems to have worked. Can pick him up cheap as a rookie?

    That's what should happen. He has been lying low and in fact hiding behind Dayle Garlett.

    talking of young Garlett, I like a bit of arrogance in a player, but boy does this kid know how to lay it on

    so sad for someone of obvious (football) talent and so sad a lot of the negativity will rub off on his 'brothers'

    I am trying to shake off one of the worst colds I have ever had. Been over a week already.

    I might try inhaling some steamed banana vapours and see if that helps. Nothing else has.

    Anything to do with the title of the film?

    Every training report I see (from Demonlanders) has Davey as the worst performed. Struggling has been the most flattering description of his efforts. I really feel that the time is near for him to make a decision on his future. I would hate to see him go out as an embarrassment.

    I seriously doubt he will be embarrassed Redleg.

    And neither would I.

    He will be happy to play out the final year of a contract worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.

    I would happily play out the year at Casey for $300 000+.

    Would you retire and forgo the money?

    He would obviously get most of the money, it is about clearing a spot for a player who may be able to contribute.

    I alluded to this elsewhere

    But only if he wants to go

    If he does not and thinks he can get back to injury free there may still be a chance somewhere in the AFL beyond 2013.

    In his view "where there is life there is hope"

    I asked the same question this morning Redleg.

    Waiting for nasher to get back to me.

    Nearly choked on my morning Coffee

    It's barely a footy thread. If it weren't so popular, I'd say it should be put in the Off-Topic section of the forum.

    But if it did go there, it would die a slow and horrible death because nobody ever visits Off-Topic.

    • 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?
