    This Trade Period is going to be huge. 

    Get down and dirty Demons

    Get what we need to improve

    The Flag window is open and anyone who doesn’t subscribe to that is a fool. 

    Rich...Sorry Ninthmond had a young side on Saturday. 

    The key is belief...

    Not having a shot but i don't get why people don't want GWS to thrive.

    Once the decision was made to go down that path (and leaving aside the debate about the merits of that decision) it became critical that GWS succeed. Huge challenge to do so in that market but the AFL have committed for the long haul and if the GWS don't get embedded and achieve sustained success they will be a massive drain on the rest of the competition for decades. 

    The other issue - and is a big one - is that a  key performance indicator of the investment in GWS is growing the number of people playing Australian Rules Football. If that pool is not growing the AFL will have issues with having enough elite AFL ready players to spread across 18 sides. If GWS are not regularly winning finals it will be difficult to continually increase the participation rate in NSW and develop talent via the academies and regional investment.  .

    Sorry to prolong an off-topic post, but the things you list (bolded above) as to why it is critical for GWS to succeed are why many of us think axing it and cutting losses may make more sense.  But it will of course not be considered for a microsecond.

    When they don't quote a source, or add a link, I instantly think they're talking absolute rubbish.

    Exactly. Which is precisely why it is critical they succeed. 

    Gold Coast are in a similar boat but i wonder if the AFL are perhaps more likely to cut their losses with them?

    Adding Elvis to their midfield to replace Ablett will be a start.

    Demons 11 said 'Sloane out of Adelaide'.  Couldn't be more over the top if he tried.

    He is exactly what we need. A genuine A grade mid who win the hard ball (though we also need outside pace and elite kicking skills).

    If Rory Sloane was leaving Adelaide he would be talking to St Kilda 1st and Melbourne maybe last.

    • 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.
