Greg Swan has confirmed that the Greg Denham's journalistic values are "utter crap". As I posted earlier there were no quotes from Carlton or Melbourne, it is simply a fantasy beatup by Denham to stir

Yeah, no mention of guys like Jones, Blease and Howe re-signing this year, even though all 3 could find new clubs in a second. Pathetic Denham at it again. He is a moron.

I just read this too. I think if Jack now comes out and tells Malthouse to politely go away, it could be a good show of faith for the club. If not, it could look pretty bad.

Why would they even bother.

The strange thing is you would think Neeld and Malthouse talk a lot , and perhaps Neeldy gave him some indication Watts wasn't happy.

Let's look at things another way... Maybe Malthouse picked up that Neeld wasn't happy with Watts.

Wow. Some of you are putting Watts on way too high a pedestal here.

Carlton would have to bring in another club to deal with because pick 11 won't pass the grade.

It won't happen. But there's a big thread on the main board where many 'landers were willing to trade him this month.

People are acting like Watts is comparative to Buddy and is untouchable. I like him a lot and I'd hate to lose him as I think he'll end up a very good player but if the price is right (in the eyes of the list management crew), you'd have to trust the club would make the right decision. The club is bigger than the individual.

To add to that, what the hell would we talk about on Demonland besides the frustration that is Jack Watts?

No. The point was, the article offers nothing to suggest we would trade him or that he would want to go. This could've written about any player in the league.

Denham has just stated on SEN that the industry has been shocked by the amount of Melbourne players putting feelers out in the market place.

Yesterday he said, "Melbourne are doing high 5's because Shannon Byrnes was even prepared to tour their facilities. Please."

I do find it pretty funny. The only players wanting to leave are the players that don't see themselves as part of the future. And they're not part of the future because they either haven't bought in, or are not good enough.

Denhan just said lots of senior Melbourne players want to leave, a caller just asked him to name them but he dodged the question.

Why do I listen to this peanut?

Ive never even heard of him.,

Probably cos I don't listen to the radio I guess.

    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

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
