    Being a optimist I can see T.Mac being a all australian this year. A couple of scalps (Both Riewoldt's) and he is sure to be considered. Unlike the midfield which is stacked full of A grade players the backline hasn't as many.

    Hey old dee, it's going to be a great year.

    We will win both games and we'll go on to win many more.

    The AFL (Abject Failures Limited) and the [censored] running it will be shown up at some stage this year for the fools they are.

    The tide of public opinion will turn our way and we will be seen as hardworking underdogs who deserve the respect of the football world.

    Oh it's going to be a glorious year.

    Go DEES!

    Toumpas will be a star. Forgive me for the massive generalization, but we have often previously recruited blokes who lack a winners arrogance. Ie Cale Morton.

    This bloke screams out 'winner'. Hogans the same. Sometimes it just goes beyond draft camps. It's for this reason, I'm also wrapped to have Viney.

    Not a huge NRL fan but you see it with Storm blokes Cam Smith and Cooper Kronk. Jimmy Bartel and Luke Hodge spring to mind also.

    For 34 minutes this afternoon, this is what I saw.

    Maybe Neeld does have the players on board. It's still going to be a long road with more pain to come, but, maybe, just maybe...

    Is now a good time to bring this thread back?

    I would expect there will be all sorts of hopes and dreams bubbling around out there. Let's share them here, free of the negative Nellies.

    I'm dreaming of Queen's Birthday 2014. 90,000 in attendance 45,000 of them in red and blue. What a magnificent sight to see. Imagine being able to wear the scarf with pride as we head out of the G with the song ringing in our ears.

    It's going to be a Grand Old Flag once more!

    GO DEES!

    I was just wondering where you were Reverend.

    Even I share you enthusiasm today mate.

    Can I go to the grave knowing we are competitive once again?

    Absolutely OD, but nobody's going anywhere until we win a flag.

    Paul Roos will be talking to his mate, GOD, and making sure that there will be no loyal supporters taken until the flag flies over the G again.

    Praise the Lord - we are being led from the desert to the promised land.

    GO DEES!

    So I have another ten years Reverend?

    Only if you want to see the next five premierships! Would three in a row put a spring in your step and shake off the infirmities? Bloody hell, one would give me another ten years, I reckon. Three in a row would see me almost immortal.

    GO DEES!

    We will win the 2014 Flag then?

    No pressure Mr Roos but we also don., want to loss a single game for the season including the Pre Season Comp and practice matches.

    Go the Dees!

    If we recruit well we can certainly push for top 8 next year providing we stay mostly injury free

    Tom Mac

    Finally getting games into a few youngsters who've had serious injuries.

    Young leaders (I seem to be in the minority on this but the sheer lack of leadership in recent years is being addressed by a new, young group. It'll take time, but they'll be there when it matters).

    Fitzy, Big Max, Hoges and the star studded forward line.

    While we are at it, why don't we get moloney back and right the wrong with Ollie Wines

    • 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.
