Spoken about media scrutiny, the fact that he doesn't see all of it (though it seems like he is pretty aware of what is said) and the unreliability of a lot of it. Praised Clarks attitude and positive effect on the squad. Hinted at experience and roles influencing the way we go about free agency and improving the list at that time. Said he wasn't comfortable talking about Cloke and said 'There hasn't been an offer from the MFC and he's not coming here'. Explained that experience is not just 40 games into a player but 40 good games etc. Something about other coaches but didn't quite catch that!

Trade month & draft day will be busy.

If it aint Cloke is it Goddard??

We have the war chest.....

Goddard will go to Fremantle if he leaves St. Kilda. Cloke's off to Carlton. Boak's off to Geelong, and Caddy's off to either Essendon or North Melbourne..

I'm forecasting an underwhelming trade period..

It can't be. If it is we may as well pack it in right now.

Well, it doesn't mean we can't have a crack. We've got the picks to go after the likes of Boak and Caddy if we wanted to...but i'm not getting the impression that the stars of the competition are clamouring to sign with us just yet..

We got Mitch Clark, so who knows...

true. It would be tough for them to do a deal. North might be better placed...I'm sure we could do a deal that would satisfy GC if he chose to return to Melbourne, but all reports suggest he has his heart set on Essendon.

Perhaps someone should tell him we have a three game winning streak against them..

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak
