He and Bennell should be our targets as they fit the age bracket and player type we need. I could not give two figs about their previous off field if we believe that is in their past. Garlett is a good case in point.

    And can someone else explain Colac to me?

    Had a beer while watching his mates play at Colac, two days before his game on the Easter Monday.

    He held his hands up and copped a week's demotion to the 2's. Exact same thing happened to Tex Walker two years ago.

    If that's a reason not to draft a bloke then the world's gone completely mad.

    Cheers Demon Jack, BarnDee and Member's Wing. I must apologise though, I was just being a disingenuous arse. I meant can someone explain it as in; Motlop is sledged by the opposition and then narked on by his teammates and misses a game despite being BOG - and we should then steer clear as such? I probably don't have the full story.

    Can you explain your reasoning here Fire?

    The talk is that Prestia's only considering leaving due to the state of the Suns culture, unsafe workplace and the like. It's an assumption on my part, but going on Bennell's recent history I'd think he's a part of that poor culture. If that is the case I doubt whether Prestia would be keen on moving with him.

    Are Geelong seriously going to let this guy leave the club, damaging player, whichever club lands him will be huge for their club?

    Some parts of his game like his sidestep really set him apart from other players

    ..I hope we are having a dig for him.

    I definitely class this guy in the A Grade category.

    Would love him, but he's South Australian bound from what I've heard.

    Humbug. We make a play regardless. It's not like he's signed anything.

    We ,may struggle if some of the sticking points of his contract are a job lined up with the Knapstein Brewery after his playing days & VIP treatment around the Barossa Valley...

    Out of contract, quick, goal kicking mid, would complement our mids nicely. Geelong are looking to spend money on imports and we owe them one for Rivers, Clark and trying to take Frawley.

    2.4 over 4 years get it done?

    Thoughts on this?

    We got Gillies and Byrnes. Call it even.

    Has re-signed with the Cats ...

    Have to wonder what they offered him. The cats are on the way down right now. Maybe they told him they had Dangermouse over the line already and a few other imports as well. What they have at the club right now isn't good enough.

    • 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.
