A few rumours floating around he may want out of Brisbane.   Not sure what the cost would be, but his age (turns 28 in November) might make him gettable for the MFC even without our first rounder.

Would be a perfect compliment to our current midfleld which is loaded with inside contested beasts.  We need run and carry, and Hanley provides it at a very high level.

    The article that someone linked to earlier today said that the Lions would be looking for a first round pick, at least, if they were to give him up.  We don't have one, which means our chances of getting him are very, very small.

    Still, he would be handy to have in the red and blue; I just don't see it happening.

    That makes sense. He's a gun.  Probably wishful thinking he will get to the Demons.

    Gold coast can have him

    A big NO!

    He's the right type of player for us (more so than Hibberd), but the price is too much for his output in recent times.

    • 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.
