Ha. I'm with you HH. When I heard rumours about the Dees looking at Shane Savage I almost choked. And then he thinks he's too good to play for us. I would suggest Savage have an interest in ANY club that may look at him cause he's a bench warmer at Hawthorn. Enjoy Box Hill Shane.

    I love how people crack the shits with Savage nominating his club of choice calling him spud etc yet if he nominated us he would be hailed as a superstar.

    Just because he doesn't nominate us mean its the end of the world. Just remember one thing. We are NOT a very attractive destination..

    I agree with what you're saying DD, however I'm suprised he nominated Carlton.

    Personally I don't see him in their 22 if they were injury free. One of the first emergencies yes, but not in their 22. If he came here he'd be starting FP, HFF or Wing.

    Odd decision for someone looking to further their career IMO.

    Yeah im surprised aswell TD but I don't understand the hate for someone that doesn't choose. But like I said its not the end of the world and too be honest I can see Brent Prismall all over again with him going to carlton.

    Would be a decent replacement for Betts I would have thought.

    .

    Is there 1 player mentioned in trade week that Carlton has said they are not interested in?

    Does he wear big baggy loose shorts?

    Who a player nominates as a preferred destination means Jack shite.

    The clubs will trade to suit themselves. He will go where the best option is for Hawthorn.

    Off to the Saints apparently...

    Sounds like he is coming with their first round pick to the Saints, in return for McEvoy. (Rumour on SEN atm)

    More than a rumour, done deal.

    Hawks amazing work to get McEvoy.

    Yup, good deal for both I would have thought. Tom Hickey looks like he can take the mantle as the main ruckman, they get Savage and another first round pick

    Hawks must have thought Longer was not attainable I guess.

    Hawks paid overs...

    But this is exactly the point I raised elsewhere. In order to get what YOU want ( insert club ) you go about it to suit yourselves. Its irrelevant what external judges place upon a draft pick's value. its what you want, what suits you. We need to do exactly the same

    I wonder what this means for the longer trade... surely that can't get done now?

    these clubs , like Hawthorn, find a way. Annoying

    maybe they realised that, still keep their 1st round pick. It was need for need.
  • Quote

    Paid through the nose because that is what they need. Roughhead out of the ruck.

    We need a while mess of things so we can't entertain that sort of deal.

    And young Billy Longer? Where are your jibes now son?

    Talk to other clubs because you are not going to Hawthorn now.

    That's a pretty good deal for both parties I think. It's the way trades should be done: identify your target, cough up a fair price, do the trade. It's the way Sydney have traded for years. The alternative is the Essendon approach of try and screw the opposition over as much as possible then moan and complain when all the other clubs tell you to shove it up your jumper.

    If the Hawks trade their first round pick, where does that put their compo pick for Buddy?

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • 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.
