Discussing draft prospects with WJ on a walk tonight and very possible we will have a choice of 4 very good players at 9. It might not even be impossible for one of those to be Aish. Interesting times ahead.

    Admittedly, Aish would be a very outside chance to be available but it might very well depend on who St. Kilda goes for at 3. If the Saints take Billings which is possible, then the following clubs might look at other more preferred players next allowing someone like Aish to slip. Very unlikely but whichever way it falls, we should have a good choice of quality players.

    On a semi serious note ( F# ..lol ) umm.. It might be just me, it might be a predisposition at this time of year to adorn rosey sunnies but I cant help but feel there is a very different quality already to how information and direction is disseminated. The club seemingly has headed of the pests in the media by issuing a sort of education-like diatribe as to what we set out to do and what/how we ACHIEVED it during trade-week(s). we are beating these clowns to the punch with very circumspect but polished statements etc all of which paint us in a much better light and we seem ( well we do ) to have a much better handle on what we're doing these days. There's no blame, no smarminess etc just a cool parade of issuances describing our current journey and mission.

    This is such a DIFFERENT club .....tfft :)

    Go Dees

    Presumably there is some advantage in our new coach having spent three years in the media ... :blink:

    I see you like the friend thing BF. Good for you. I'm not into it myself but there's a bloke named Stuie who posts on this board. He needs all the friends he can get. Could be your good deed for the day.

    BBO you are always concerned for the welfare of other.

    If only more people followed your example the world would be a better place.

    OD has already staed the Dee will never win while he is alive, wait a minute ....

    Now now TBF While I have just had the worst ten days I can remember health wise I don't intend shuffling off any time yet.

    Family came home from Bali and all went down with gastro and try As I might I could not avoid it.

    I had Mrs OD in Hospital on Saturday and then I succumbed on Sunday.

    Spent the next three days in bed with the worst gastro I can remember in 37 years.

    Make you appreciate how well off you are when you are just well.

    Go Dees

    Don't go there, TBF -- I want OD alive and kicking to watch the Dees go back-to-back!

    Of course, it is silly to expect to get the Caulfield Cup as well ... :lol:

    That sure as hell makes two of us R&B

    I was planning on having Russell Crow as the human Sacrifice as Rugby Supporters don't count.

    Plus BBO made me say it

    Then he is not worth being a sacrifice TBF

    Perhaps we need a communal burning at the stake

    I can think of at least four that would qualify and this may appease the Gods

    • 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?

      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?
