Players can change look at Martin Pike, not wanted by Melbourne and traded to Fitzroy, traded to North, flag at North, delisted by North, picked up by Brisbane and three more flags there.

His off field record was appalling but he could play football.

    Absolutely no interest for Heath "Don't you know who I am?" Shaw from me.

    Class A [censored].

    Would definitely rather look elsewhere.

    If Heath Shaw was 24 then I would say yes.

    I just don't get this.

    Too old. Too old to begin the training.

    The club is just saying we're interested. How interested we really are is anybodies guess.

    Technically, we could use a classy runner off half back and that's what Shaw is, even if he can be a [censored] at the best of times.

    Pies would be looking for plenty of compensation though, and I don't want the club to overpay for him as I don't think he is worth more than a mid to late first rounder.

    For me I hope it is only just rumour, couldn't think of a bigger idiot to recruit to the dees.

    His best days are past him and had serious attitude problems!

    Agreed.

    We "looked at" Martin as well and then said no thanks.

    Nothing wrong with squeezing all the fruit in the aisle, as long as you pick the juiciest one at the end.

    Is he a RFA or UFA?

    He is c) None of the above.

    Contracted. So would have to be traded

    Pick 2 & 36 for Shaw, Pick 10 & 27?

    how i can see us getting him in a perfect world:

    Colin Sylvia informs melbourne he wants to leave the club, melbourne have a little chat with collingwood and offer the swap, collingwood dont realise that they can get sylvia for free as a free agent, and let us trade shaw for sylvia.

    otherwise although he would be the perfect player for our list i feel that we dont have the bait to get the job done, maybe blease?

    Or, instead of collingwood not realising he's a FA, we sign him up, then go 'ha, just joshing, get you a** to collingwood', and trade for shaw....

    But seriously, no.

    if sylvia wants to sign with melbourne then i would be more than happy with that, but i doubt he does, and the currency on sylvia to a possible top 4 club would be significant.

    heath shaw is very nearly the best 1 vs 1 player in the comp and his disposal craps all over terlichs, even if he has a few melt downs a bit of passion in the mfc wont go astray.

    People forget that we're a 2-20 and 54% team sometimes. Anyone (yes ANYONE)* that's better than the list of C, D and E graders (apologies to a few) we have donning the guernsey each week is worth a look.

    Heath Shaw at his best was an elite defender and while he is probably only B-grade nowadays, he would improve our back 6 significantly.

    Yes for me at the right price.

    *The train-wreck that is Dustin Martin being a possible exception.

    Frankly if we had a mid to late first rounder i would rather use it on a player (like young Jones) who can be around for a decade in the midfield.

    I said this to my missus and added that I had squeezed a helluva lot fruit in my day, and i ended up with the juiciest.

    She didn't like it.

    • 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.
