"We have a powerful group of people in terms of influence, executives and business leaders and people who are high quality in all fields of industry. But we know if it comes down to money [to keep a player such as Scully from GWS] we cannot compete, but if it comes down to access to business networks and opportunity and contacts and reach, then no club can compete with Melbourne."

Interesting.

Yeah it would be good to hear a run down. Apparently there will be a video message from jim and it will be interesting to see if Garry talks because if he does it will be worth listening to. He is one of the best public speakers.

I'm going and would like to report from the function but, alas, my wife regards using the iPhone to send messages at dinner functions as rude and anti social. The report will have to wait but fear not, I'm sure if anything big happens, news will filter through.

And IMO she is right Jack!

She's right and you'll probably absorb more and enjoy it more without it.

Appreciate the effort.

Jack, that is very good of you.

My son is there and is going to give me updates, he just said Viney is talking and they think Scully will stay

Trengove re signed until 2015, fantastic now all we have to do is make him King, sorry Captain. Gawn re signed as have a number of other players.


Awesome news .

GREAT NEWS!! Saw jack on Sunday down at Casey, him a the bull where the only ones to brave it outside amongst us.

He oozes character and appears a born leader, I'd vote him as captain next year


Thanks Jack.. Hope we as a club can return the faith.

Seems a likely sort to take on the mantle ;)

  • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

  • GAMEDAY: Hawthorn

    It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

  • NON-MFC: Round 09

    Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
