I'm trying to imagine Maric playing like Stokes or Christensen in the GF - and struggling.

IMO he's still a bit young in his mind.

The last Pre season was a good indicator of him starting to mature, but he still let things slip when it wasn't given to him on a platter.

He could continue to improve slowly or not, It's up to his inner Attitude.

I'm out of patience with these Non Physical type players. We have a budding list and I for one want to move on to fresh faces in the Small Forward/Mid, area.

You had to ask where the Weet Bix is in a Coles? Either you made up the story because you don't like Indians, or you really aren't the sharpest tool in the shed.

Just want to write this and see what people think... Brad Green has been a Melbourne player since 1999. He has played 241 games. He has won games off his own boot. He has ran with the flight of th

The Eagles are travelling to Los Pollos Hermanos before the game tonight to get a 'winning edge'; must be something in the chicken.

According to the Hun, North have already interviewed Maric and given him a medical.

Fait accompli, it seems.

Not much of a loss really.

Especially if we land Lisle.

We must be certain of having room on our list though.

Maybe it's due to one of our players-to-be being ineligible for the 2012 season?

Warnock & Bate WILL find new homes.

It just depends on what we get in return.

Maybe it's also why Green has still not re-signed?

But I find it hard to believe his contract negotiations are being held off because we might not have room for him on the list.

Was in Belgrave Safeway again last night, and overheard the same guy telling another checkout chick that the Dees are cert's to get both Goddard and Brad Crouch, in a complex deal involving 5 other clubs including the Bombers who trade Heppel to GWS then get him back again in an on-trade that includes a solid guarantee that Sheedy stays in Sydney.

Noticed he was stocking up on Oreos which are on special.

Which is Pick 37

Mark LeCras, Todd Goldstein, Leigh Montagna all handy previous pick 37's....

In very DIFFERENT drafts !!

Given currently: Melbourne: 12, 36, 54, 72, 90 then 37 is a better prospect than those after, but i doubt of the calibre of those you mention.

I cant really see us picking up more than 4 in the draft and some may stay a little longer on our lists as a result.

According to Twitter, we look to be getting North's second round pick for Maric.

Very good outcome for the Dees if this comes to fruition. I'd prefer to take a punt on a second rounder, than persist with Addam who's shown very little imo.

Apparently a similar issue to Cooney.

Cooney has little to no cartilage left in his knee making it extremely painful to run, Scully has a previous patella injury which may cause him to struggle with large training loads (according to doc Larkin). Whilst they are both knee injuries they are quite different.

Herd on SEN today that the Bulldogs put Cooney up for trade, apparently has really bad knee problems. Is he a risk worth taking? Maybe straight swap Bate for Cooney

Bulldogs put out a statement denying the Cooney trade talk and that he would remain a Bulldog player.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
