Bring Back Brock

Ned
in Melbourne Demons

Pass. Wish he'd never left, but no value in having him back now. Got to move on.

His best game in 3 years but it was only against us!

    Bottom line, if he wanted to come back and the FD thought he'd be valuable I'd be happy for us to try to get him. When does he come out of contract? Surely he'd be frustrated at being constantly played in the VFL and he'd want top level exposure.

    If we can get him cheap/PSD, I say why not. If we have to chase him/lure him/sweeten the pot for Carlton, no. He would have to come back on our terms.

    Who here thinks on current form he wouldn't push the likes of Sylvia and Moloney out of the team?

    While we're at it, let's bring back Ben Holland, Nathan Carroll, and perhaps we can dig up the corpse of Norm Smith?

    The only way is forward.

    Forget Brock McLean and that entire way of thinking.

    1) Brock Mclean....lol

    2) VFL only.

    3) Overrated

    4) Absolutely no speed for the modern game.

    5) Lost the plot at Melbourne & cant get a game at Carlton unless someone is injured. Not favoured by two AFL teams says it all.

    6) I used to like Chooka... but he is a dud much like Morton has become. Talented to useless in the space of two years.

    7) Stick him with the John Howat/Brent Grgic pile. Finished due to being useless.

    8) Invest in the future only for me not the past.

    He's hardly played any footy in his three seasons at Carlton, yes I liked him for a while with us but he's past his time, he'splayed his best footy of his career with us. Even though he had 33 possessions he still looked slower than ever

    IF and when a guy some may remember, Jordan Gysberts, gets back on the field and hits anything like the firm of his first few games, people will stop this sort of talk.

    stuff his first few games, he got the ball heaps but didnt use it, i think it was in the middle of last year where for 3 or 4 games in a row he had probably 20-25 possessions but he used the ball so well, had much more time to targets and was alot more valuable, injury has set him back again so probably take a few games to get the speed back again, probably struggle with structures at first too considering he hasn't had any before.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
