Get some practice in DE because it's nearly grand final week and we all know your explosive posting on GF day!

Thankyou for the reminder MS. No chance of that that this year due to a GF party. Hopefully it is a good game?

"I've had five coaches in six years. You can only imagine if your boss changes every year almost, it's hard to keep consistency," Blease said. "As a result, I feel that moving to a new club with a 7t

Dean Bailey tried. Mark Neeld tried. Paul Roos tried. Two caretaker coaches tried. Were they all imparting the wrong message or was Blease not listening?

Star?

A good serviceable player I would have thought. I don't have sleepless nights thinking about losing Brock.

Certainly done better than Gysberts though.

I was trying to be ironic. Didn't really work tho!

Need an irony emoticon...

Just announced on SEN that Sam Blease has asked to be traded and MFC has agreed.

Not earth shattering, but official nonetheless.

No further details

to be honest we would be lucky to get much. he's shown next to nothing for quite a while.

all he has shown is that he fancys his run too much.

This has resulted in him demonstrating selfish play that often results in poor decisions.

Tapscott for Robinson?

Don't really like the bloke, but he's a tough bugger that doesn't mind the physical stuff.

I'm not sure mate, I think Blease was rumoured to be heading there too, not sure what both could net us, someone apparently interested in Strauss too but I can't remember who it was

Tapscott has requested a trade to Carlton

No doubt after he was told we wouldn't offer him a contract.

I for one will be disappointed to lose Blease. I still think he can make it.

From the same draft as Watts. 7th year in 2014.

Watts has done so much more than Blease and yet some have more patience for Blease.

Feel sad to see Blease go because at his best he is an exciting talent. Must admit his last 2 games for us were stinkers and he was given adequate time and opportunity. Can't see him making it elsewhere, just doesn't have the work effort required to run both ways.

Lol I forgot he worked there.

He was the one who originally drafted Tapscott and Blease right?

BP: Trust me mick, these guys can play, mfc don't know what they're doing

MM: " senile rambling "

BP: I think we should trade pick 6 for Luke tapscott and Bryce Gibbs for Sam Blease

MM: " throws something at Mark Stevens"

BP: we should use our second rounder to pick up Cale " cement truck" Morton

MM: zzzzzzzz

Carlton is a well run and respected organisation.

Just hope we get more for him than we did for Morton/Bennell/Martin

Doubt it. It's a mutual decision to trade him which means we are probably happy with anything at all. A late pick to use in another deal or a slight pick upgrade. Bennell turned things around because he was young enough to. Martin because he's a ruckman. Anything Blease does in his future should be seen as good luck to him not reflecting on MFC.

Broken leg in the school quadrangle. 2 years on the sidelines and behind the 8 ball for the rest of his career.

What a waste.

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
