Arguably there is no-one more passionate about the plight of MFC than Schwarz, certainly not in media circles.

He has just recently returned to the club and addressed the playing group, but is it now time to make his association with the club more full-time? Honestly at this stage I couldn't care less in what capacity, whether it be in an FD role or behind the scenes, I just think we need some real Melbourne people around the club. Ones that bleed red and blue.

Could he do it? Would he do it? How can he be of assistance in what is a desperate hour?

    No we don't. We need leaders. real leaders.

    We have no effective leaders in the team, and none in the coaching staff.

    The senior players will not stand up; the coaches clearly have no effect/impact on the players in gametime.

    Schwarz has passion for the club and this club lacks passion. Pretty logical really.

    Obviously his presence alone isn't going to turn this club around but It can not hurt. Having someone who has been a part of a somewhat successful era and has worn this jumper before with honor may have a thing or two to pass on to this mob.

    In fact I call on any ex Melbourne player who thinks he can bring something to the table to visit the club. All input should be welcomed at this stage.

    Surely Steven Tingay, Shane Woewodin, Nathan Brown and Jeff Farmer should all come in, too.

    Think he would be the perfect person to bring in right now. Too drunk to give any more than that. Will post more on this later.

    Decoy out of the square, ala Carey at Adelaide.

    Neil Craig is a genius! Why didn't we think of this?

    Sad thing is even with shot knees and a decade out of the game,, Ox would still have Sellar and Pederson covered.

    • 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.
