    Don't know why the hate for him.

    Why do you jump to hate Red.. I simply dont rate him.  Now Rate and Hate share 3 letters arguably...but thats all.

    Some of the comments on Vickery are far closer to hating than rating.

    Talking about hate, I still hate the free agency compensation with a passion.  Not only does the recruiting club essentially get a free hit, but ever other club in the league gets penalised by being pushed down the draft order.  The club recruiting the player should be forced to give up a draft pick of nominal equivalence in order to square the ledger with the rest of the comp.

    I could never 'hate' somebody's hair, I like people who are tonsorially adventurous

    With Vickery,  reminds me of Sylvia, it's there, you just don't see it enough

    IMHO Sylvia had far more talent than Ty.

    Lyon, like a succession of coaches at MFC, couldn't get him to unleash it. 

    Clarkson may get more of whatever Ty may have hidden away there than the others got out of Col.

    Tonsorially adventurous? I rate that expression. Could you please give some examples of the characteristics of such persons?

    BUMP

    I read that the Hawks were 'considering his future'.

    Dodged a bullet, albeit a slow moving one, there.

    Vickery was every bit as bad as Mayne was for Collingwood this year.

    These guys were recruited on contracts with some serious coin attached. I think both are on at least $500k a season.

    Combined, they only played nine games in 2017 and booted a whopping four goals. 

    When looking at these blunders, I certainly feel incredibly thankful for our recruiting staff and the superb job they've done rebuilding the club by getting these type of picks right. Guys like Hibberd (2017 All-Australian), Melksham (20+ goal second half of the season), Lewis (leadership and guidance), Vince (2015 Best & Fairest) and even someone like Daniel Cross (see Lewis) from a few years ago have been fantastic pick-ups for our club.

    May be we could give him a job as business adviser to the catering dept.

    Maybe we could give his " business adviser " a job at the strengthening and tattooing department too !

    In fairness to the Hawks... they have been pretty good at making ordinary players look decent over the years so probably figured they'd do the same here.

    Too much spud though

    Simple fact he is a liabilty when kicking for goal.

    No thanks.

    We have made plenty of mistakes over the years, in trading and drafting, don't think we need to laugh at a club that has won 4 flags since our last GF.

    Hopefully we are limiting our mistakes now with a better group of recruiters.

    • 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.
