I know some of you will be thinking other thoughts with that headline but.....

One of our Directors Stuart Grimshaw is CEO of Bank of Queensland that yesterday announced it was to buy the Virgin Money business for $40m. They will be looking to expand aggressively keeping the VM brand.

Perhaps we might see a new Demon sponsor???

    They'd do well to stay away from us to be honest.

    Trust you are not putting yourself up for CEO then.

    Not a bad idea Jnr but he has a board and shareholders to report too.

    Fairly confident that would be regarded by a very conservative industry as a bad investment.

    Bankers are traditionally not risk takers and right now the MFC is a monster risk

    They wouldn't be VIRGIN for long. Being associated with a club that is F***ed

    Indeed, a club with a strong base upon Faith, Hope and Prayer could also do with a little Chastity.

    • 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.
