This guy from Carlton is impressive, starved of oppurtunities because of Gibbs Murphy Robinson Simpson and co. love his poise and attack on the footy, who love him at the MFC in 2014. Wouldn't mind having a Crack a Denis Armfield too. Pesty player who can hurt teams at times.

    Please god, no. We already have enough people who can't kick.

    We need stars, not more depth players.

    Please NO MORE Sellars, Gillies, Rodans, Pedersons.... etc

    so should Sydney give back mcglynn and Kennedy?

    We certainly don't need any more cast aways especially old ones but a midfielder entering his prime who can play I'd take for sure

    Quick fixes dont work in a mediocre team

    Its as plain as day that our current crop of players are just not playing to their capabilities and some might even go as far as saying they are not playing for the coach

    There is no doubt that some of the players we have are not AFL standard

    With a group of our younger guys still requiring time to develop we are miles away from being competive against a top 8 side

    Cannot see anymore than 4 wins for the season so may as well play the future not the past

    Right, so we're Sydney? We have enough top players that we can afford to get more depth players? It's PLAIN to see we NEED A-Grade midfielders.

    I think he could be a decent option. Fringe player in a strong midfield like Carlton's. And anyone here going on about getting stars if you can put up an example of a star we can get then please do. Otherwise guys like these are decent options to look at. Remember Grigg and Houli were also not getting muh game time at their clubs and are both doing ok at Richmond.

    On a side note another guy we should look at is Liam Anthony. He seems to be out of favour at the Roos and he can get a TON of the ball. We need playrs who know how to find the pill.

    If we recruit Armfield I'm never buying a membership again

    Either star mids from other clubs or top draft midfield prospects, Having said that if the bloke was a free agent that we'd get for nothing he would be worth considering after my first two points had been explored fully

    • 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.
