Nice article in the Hun today on him saying that even though he's as slow as a turtle there is a place for guys like him in modern footy. Come home Brock and win a few contests for us.

Don't kid yourself... the way we are traveling at the moment, anyone can look good playing against us.

I think he has played 5 games in his two years at Carlton....A lot more at VFL level

Nobody has the right to bag McLean or suggest he wouldn't be good enough at MFC.

He would be hands down our number 1 midfielder at the moment.

He tore shreds on our 3rd world midfield. Apologies to N Jones.

We could do worse than a McLean at the moment.

Yes, he's played a total of 12 games for them so far in two and a bit seasons.

Just silly. Sorry mate.

The guy has had 1 good game and he's a recruiting target for the (already) slowest midfield in the AFL? Come on, is this a joke thread?

And if you really think Brock is better than Jones at the moment you have no credibility whatsoever.

The cynics would say Sunday's opposition as at VFL level. :unsure:

He hasn't faced one this year yet. Stay tuned.

If we thought he'd bring leadership and a good training ethic then he'd be worth considering.

I can not understand how people are saying we haven't given Couch a game because our midfield is already too slow but Brock is actually being taken seriously as an option by some people.... Wowee

Brock is like Cam Bruce at the moment, both will get a game when they have injuries or the game doesn't count, such as when they play against the GC, GWS or us.

Theres a smattering of ex Melbourne "Filler players" in the competition at the moment and if we had them all back we'd be no better off.

Some of the posters on this form absolutely baffles me.

One minute we will have a huge thread about Scully, expressing our hatred towards the player who we picked up as a number #1 draft pick but has now left us due to a lucrative offer. On the other hand, we have Brock Mclean who we picked up in the top 5 draft picks - and left us due to the fact that he did not want to play for the MFC anymore and wanting to find success else where. The suggesstion of opening our doors to the club for Mclean after he walked out on us is absolutely disgusting and weak despite whether he would be an asset.

I wouldn't be surpised if half of the guys here who are thinking this would be a good idea are weak minded individuals who would get dumped by a girl thinking she could get better, then half a year later when she comes crawling back you'd most probably think hey... I'm struggling at the moment, why not? It could be a good idea, I could do worse.

This is the Melbourne Football Club. Not a cushion lounge where a player can leave and then decide whether he wants to come back or not. Get a grip you blokes show some bloody spirit.

I think you'll find that Brock left because he mistakenly thought we had a good midfield and he'd struggle to get a game; well he was wrong wasn't he?

He wouldnt be our no 1 midfielder. The fact that he isnt in the Bluesbest midfield baffles me why anyone would want him back or regret him going for what we traded him for.

Correct.

i think you'll find Melbourne didn't want Brock anymore, so when he did suggest a trade we were quite happy to oblige.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
