OUT: Scully, Gysberts, ND3, ND12, & ND45

IN: Clark, Hogan, Barry, Dawes, Toumpas and Pedersen

I think we may have got the 2009 draft right...

Clark is indirectly affected but we wouldn't have him if HWFUA was still around.

He may be a great player but I am calling this a win for the Dees.

Hell, we got two three KPFs because he pizzed off...

*Edited after Dawes trade and for accuracy with Pick 3 and 4. Also edited as the pick we got in the Dawes trade went to NM for Gysberts.

    Also having him in our team this year may have helped us snare one more win putting us above the Bulldogs in the draft which would have resulted with picks 5 & 6 ( 5 being Viney)

    I am struggling to find a flaw in your statement rpfc.

    Looks good to me.

    Plus the ability to snag Viney in the second round. Let's be honest, that wouldn't have happened had we not had picks 3&4.

    Best #1 draft pick ever!

    The slight flaw I've found is that I'd argue he's also given us pick 4 in this draft. (i.e. without his comp pick, we would've had to use our first pick on Viney and would've lost our first pick in the draft).

    So are you suggesting an even more complex tanking operation undertaken by the Demons for 2012

    - [censored] of a former number 1 pick on a China trip, and deny his dad free hot dogs and pies, so he will leave us;

    - break the foot of our most promising FF in years, mid season

    That sounds far more complex than allowing Jordan McMahon to take a mark outside 50 on the siren, and through our sheer willpower guiding the long kick through.

    Even Carltank could not have dreamed that up.

    Time to start another deep AFL probe: maybe they can spring an interview with another cheesed off ex-player, Beemer in a year or two to "confirm" this elaborate plot.

    So in essence we could also add as an "IN", Oliver Wines? (Or who ever it might be...)

    Updated.

    I call it a massive win.

    The little simpleton got us a forward line!!

    I think we all need to change our thoughts about the guy. We probably should be errecting a statue somewhere and call it "our saviour". I knew that he always really had the clubs best interests at heart.

    Don't joke, we all know that anyone who lied to Jim Stynes' face doesn't have a heart.

    And lets not forget it would have cost us $800k pa to keep him as well.....

    Edited.

    HWFUA can be considered a hero. He has fundamentally changed our list for the better.

    All he had to do was leave it.

    • 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.
