I have been looking at the comparison between them both and i think Jack can step up his game in 2013 and become an elite Mid in the mould of Lenny.

First he must trim down,become leaner

Second he must have a huge preseason with the view to play mid all year.

Lenny is 186cm 83kg

Jack 187cm 85kg

I love the way Grimes goes about his footy and Neeld should make him set his style around Hayes in 2013 .

I love Grimes but it's easier said then done to become Lenny. While we are at it can we make Morton into Rioli, Cook into Darling, Gawn into Cox and so on and so on.

that's just stupid unrealistic comment with a hint of sarcasm.

So whats your opinion to improvement, early Draft picks will solve our problems?

We need current senior players to take the next step and improve if we are going to get any where. and Grimes stepping it up in the Mid and basing his game around Hayes is realistic.

Just let Jack be Jack, time on the ground and he will develop into a very good player, maybe even to the elite level.

He will base his game on his strengths and by the sounds of things will work hard on his weakness to realise his potential.

hei Ash!

Funny thing you say that. A good mate barracks for Saints and strongly feels Hayes should take over the Captaincy from Reivolt next year. Hayes is an absolute star. Had him in my Supercoach team all year and followed his progress post knee OP. Absolute Profesional.

You know Ash...I think Grimes should just be J. Grimes and be a trailblazer. Still very young. Let others aspire to be him.

Ash is right. There is a lot of talk around early draft picks. If and when the current crop steps up a notch or two (Grimes, Trenners, Morto, McK, Spec and Fitz, Wattsy, Bleasey) this will go along, long way to Melbourne winning games. Lets not talk finals just winning a few will boost confidence. SUNDAY IS VITAL!! Fair concept re the Hayes idea.

Thai Id put money on at least two of those listed not being a demon next year but I agree with what your saying.

Neeld likes McK hard tags. Will stay. Morto may well be traded. Still young enough.

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    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
