    Should we be worried?

    In a report on the training thread, it said that Dunn was contested by Hogan and Dunn beat him every time.

    I don't want to moz this kid but after seeing him play live I formed the view he is the closest thing I have seen to a young Carey. I hope with all my heart he signs a long term contract with us and plays a long career and injury free with us. If that happens he will go down as one of our greats.

    As much as he has some annoying traits, Dunn actually knuckled down and worked hard last season and produced some decent games in defence. Perhaps he's just one of those players who's seen the light and doesn't want his career to flicker and die like so many before him at this club in recent years.

    Worried about a near 10 year player beating a kid at pre season training in early December?

    No not really.

    Interesting article in the Hun today about the Bill Vlahos Betting Scheme that has gone belly ( now there is a surprise ).

    $180 million is said to have vanished.

    One of the big losers is said to be "Former Melbourne Demons President Mr Don Mclarty"

    My god what makes seemly intelligent people invest in these things.

    And we wonder my the MFC has floundered in recent years.

    A month or two ago on his radio show, Red Symons said he had once briefly met Tom Waterhouse. As part if the discussion, he told Tom he 'never bet on anything'.

    Tom replied 'you should come and work for me'.

    Hoping to get down to training on wednesday.

    I was going today Redleg as I was in the area but when the rain hit I bailed.

    I have seen enough poor ball handling to last me a lifetime in 2013.

    I plan to go Wednesday if it is dry.

    Might see you there if I am free.

    PS. Read my last post on the AFL Officials thread and post what you think.

    Wonder if CAC is regretting his move from footy to racing. He left the Tigers for BC3 Thoroughbreds which is headed by the same guy being questioned over the missing punters club millions.

    PS. BC3 is also apparently in default of payment to Inglis Thoroughbred Auctions, for the purchase of the $5m colt that will never race, but is recovering from a spider bite.

    PPS. CAC is a decent guy and in no way do I suggest he has done anything wrong.

    Yes I did Redleg and I agree that there are incontinences it our treatment on this issue.

    However IMO the AFL has always been thus and will be in the future.

    I never thought we would get a PP in 2013.

    We had just been done for tanking and had displayed over the previous 5 -6 years the worse management this century.

    The cry that the MFC had plenty of help to rise and completely messed it up and did not deserve a PP held some water IMO.

    I tend to think in the long term no PP this year might actually make us better.

    We have to get over the hand out mentality and get on with picking good players and building a good list.

    I think there is a lot more to come on this subject Redleg.

    It will be the subject for a very good story when all is revealed over the next couple of years.

    It is all starting to sound very dodgy. An assault and a car being torched down at Connewarre, unpaid bills for horses and payments to tax havens in Bermuda! Promises of 25% returns on punting? A sensible person wouldn't go near it unless you are interested in tax avoidance, money laundering or alternatively you are just plain stupid?

    In Don's case it could just be the latter.

    could be just plain greed

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
