Rumour - Totally unsubstantiated:

Scott Watters is in discussions with the Demons for the heir apparent role.

Derby Day BBQ.

The guy there knows one of the recruiters.

A Roos 'project' - nearly choked on me lamb kebab.

I would have thought that the entire MFC is a 'project!'

I read today the Mel B was banned from appearing on CH10's The Project. I am shattered. Sexiest woman going around in my opinion.

No way - Francesca Cumani.....rivals Natalie.

Hmmm had a look on google. Very nice but no match. But then beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I am thinking we could never agree but gee I think we could have a good date with either.

For someone who once played for Blackburn North and St Peters, I think you might be out of your league here.

The draft is still to come 'titan', but maybe it's time for a new all encompassing draft thread.

Sure, but how many rumours are there going to be about who we draft? Given the leaks coming out of the club right now, I'd say none. It's all mainly opinions from here on out, or phantom orders etc.

Yep, and we keep repeating them. Bring on the season, please.....and let us have a season not just one game to extinguish our hopes, please....

OK. I'll go with the big draft rumour of the day.

Rumour has it that after taking advice from the club's consultant on draft matters, a Mr. Prendergast, Melbourne will pass on pick 9 due to a lack of suitable candidates for the position. The following potential candidates were considered but found unworthy:-

Acres - concern over shoulder injury

Aish - too outside

Billings - probably out of our reach

Bontempelli - tall for a mid and might not fit the bill

Boyd - can't fit him into the side

Crouch - lacks the necessary athleticism

Dunstan - one sided, poor disposer of the ball

Freeman - query by some on disposal

Garlett - too much of a behavioural risk

Hartung - too small

Kelly - definitely out of our reach

Kolodjashnij - name too hard to pronounce

Lennon - tested poorly and not really a midfielder, more a half forward

Rioli - too fat

Salem - didn't do enough at national carnival

Scharenberg - a utility, not a mid

Sheed - one paced and doesn't tackle enough

Taylor - midget, no defensive game

No decision has been made as yet as to whether the club would utilise pick 40 (which of course, now becomes pick 39).

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
