Thank God that trade didn't happen

FMD. I hardly use the hysteria on Ology as representative of much. And we all know the reason why the trade did not proceed. Supporters with half an IQ were staggered why a fringe player Was allowed to hold the club to ransom for a deal for a far better player.The club appear to meekly accept this when it was clear at that time Sewell was a better proposition.

    That really is the point.

    Ferg should have been told he would not be playing much senior football if he stayed, but he emphatically said he did not want to go, and Neale D copped it.

    And he stayed. And he did not play much senior football.

    A failure to communicate.

    Sewell wasn't getting a game at the time and looked bog ordinary. I had no strong opinion either way at the time as I didn't rate either player, but I'd be amazed if there were too many people who were strongly in favour of the trade. It looked like a Ben Nelson for David Gallagher trade at the time I thought.

    Best On Ground ordinary?

    Don't worry, I'm only joking...

    Surely someone on Demonland bemoaned the fact that St Kilda managed to get Andrew Lovett arguing he was exactly the player that we needed at that time. Probably a good one to have avoided. Similarly, Lawrence (was that his first name?) Angwin when he went to Carlton.

    You'd find the same type of response here, sadly the data is no longer available, but just continue to type BS and act like it was fact.

    I did a disservice to TGR comparing you to him, he at least knows a bit about footy. From what I have seen of your posts and moderating 'skills' you are more like Demonlands RRE.

    Well, Northy's FD were right, he wasn't part of our next premiership side.

    he was part of Carlscum's next Flag team. It made me feel sad.

    I was a big fan of the Earl.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Recent meetings between Melbourne and Carlton have developed a striking and somewhat familiar narrative, underscored by a series of closely contested encounters ultimately decided by narrow margins. The Blues have won out on each of the past four occasions:-

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      Melbourne’s early surge of optimism came crashing back to reality in its clash with Fremantle at Optus Stadium on Saturday night. Just six days after unveiling its fun-filled, attack-minded style against the Saints, the Demons were met by a Dockers outfit determined to shut it down with a blend of speed, pressure, and physicality.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      The Casey Demons faced a tough first up task taking on reigning VFL premiers Footscray at Mission Whitten Oval. The Bulldogs, who unfurled their premiership flag pre-game, had 15 AFL-listed players and their top VFL talent available, setting them up for their 15th consecutive win.

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      The Demons were fumbly, inefficient, outrun and outgunned all over the field as they went down to the Dockers by 48 points at Optus Stadium in Perth.
