LOL - assumes that they can find a carlton official who is less thick than Brock!

How about Barry Prendergast? Then again ...

    Can someone explain to me again the benefits for footballers or any professional sportspeople in having twitter accounts? We've had two NBA players given death threats via twitter in the recent playoffs and I'm sure if scully had an account that's all he'd receive (justifiably). I can't see why anyone would willingly invite lunatics to abuse them online.

    I've heard this morning that Greg Swan spent 8 hours not rolling over to the AFL's strong request of suspending McLean for a game. I must say that I admire that greatly.

    What would Melbourne have done ? I have zero doubt that in the same circumstances they would have acceded to the AFL's wishes and there would have been a different outcome.

    I would let him burn and then tell the rest of the team to stop being so easily trolled on twitter:

    Troll: You're no good and should be delisted.

    AFL player: How dare you?! Your mum has AIDS, and by extension I have AIDS.

    Great moment in humanity the whole thing...

    I totally agree. If you're an athlete and can't handle being heckled without resorting to churlish retorts, then don't sign up for Twitter. If you don't have the willpower to resist, then suck it up or face the consequences. I have little sympathy for McLean.

    Actually one of my preferred footballers on Twitter, at least he doesn't spout the same old NBA, FIFA, 'Get around him yeeewww' crap that the others do.

    yeh i agree, the standard stuff said by players on twitter is pretty boring:

    just ate a great burger on chapel street

    lebron james is a champ

    check out my mates photography business

    blah blah blah

    • 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.
