Hopefully this gives you all a bit of a laugh...

From the Herald Sun, 4 January 2013

"There has also been strong backing for West Coast at the seemingly generous odds of $7.


“We took a $3000 bet on West Coast at $7 for a potential $21,000 collect right after the announcement that they had recruited classy midfielder Cale Morton so plenty of punters are confident they have the list to go to the next level this season,” Hamilton said."

Worsfold is a qualified pharmacist. Makes it even more ridiculous that he claimed he had no idea the players were on the gear.

Morton has the chance to make some on here eat their words..... He looks bigger, but not by much..... He will get a lot bigger and stronger...... and in two years he will dominate....... there will

No, of course not...just adding some bs to this ridiculous topic that's citing CM a champion and WC as premiers.

"Classy"must mean something else over there .

I dont know who is fooling themselves more-the WC punter or the Dees guy who put on 5k to collect 75.

I'm over sports betting .

They have destroyed cricket , along with James Slitherland and co.

Watch them influence , then ruin football.

I should read

We took a $3000 bet on Cale Morton at $1000 for a potential big collect right after the announcement that they had recruited him to make the starting 22 at WC, so some dumb punter is confident he has what it takes to go to the next level this season, we reckon he's done his balls” Hamilton said."

I think Bennell will be the one to lead them to a premiership...Morton will just be his right hand man. If those two are given a chance with the Eagles at the top level they'll each consistently rack up 40+ disposals at 98%+ efficiency. They're that good.

I wish the Dees had invested more time into them... 2013 will be their year! And if it's not, 2014 will be.

Sarcasm.

Surely he is "the missing link": he will instil that missing hardness that they need to bring them to the top.

Contrary to what's said here, Morton's not useless.

He just doesn't fit into Neeld's strategy. And that's okay.

I wouldn't be surprised if he does well with WCE.

I'm with you, I won't be the least bit surprised. The Eagles' track record for actually developing young talent into solid footballers is in another stratosphere compared to ours.

The article itself is usual Herald Sun BS. I read their articles online and fully expect sentences to finish with 'lol', 'WTF' and smily tags.
That being said, while he won't be the missing link to them winning a flag, he may improve. If he does, it will be an indictment on the old regime and to an extent a blot on the current regime.

He definately doesn't look the same as last year. Has definately put on muscle.

The fact that this is his last crack at it as spurred him on I recon.

Will be interesting to see how he goes.

Yeah,

Looks like hes got a tan and grown dreddies aswell.

If Cale Morton dominates for Meth Coke i will be filthy on Cale Morton.

People have every right to be on his back.

He had ample opportunities at MFC to shine and didn't.

That kick last year was pitiful. And who kicked it.

Cale himself. Nobody could do it for him.

I will not be eating words if he succeeds. I will be furious as an MFC Member that we were used.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
