When was the last time Rehn got something right?

How he gets airtime on SEN is beyond me.  That said, he's not on his own.

Don’t know mate, sorry I posted it.

    Tom Rehn on SEN said Dees were circling at around 4pm today

    Maybe we left it a bit late if we were only circling at around 4pm today after he had re-signed with Port? However, SWYL seems to think we can bend the time-space continuum by passing on Wines in the draft when his first league game was a BOG.

    decisions like passing on Wines when his FIRST GAME against us was BOG keep the theory alive sadly.

    I’ll rephrase it for the last time, he’s gone and never coming so let’s get over it. I never held hope that he’d come to Dees or want, I actually didn’t think the club would pursue him.

    “Tom Rehn at around 4pm yesterday on SEN said Dees had been circling”

    Not now, the way we have developed recently. we don't need him now.  We need more pace and nimbleness.

    Don't forget Maynard as well.

    But I wouldn't mind Degooey.

    I have a theory that when we lost Wowie in 2002 some soul left the club of that group. 

    No-one leaves this cuurent team . Incl the rubbish talked about hogan.

    The tightness of the players cannot be overestimated.

    Good call, although it is as much about the players you bring in as the ones who go out. Not only did Woewodin leave, but we brought in Heffernan and Moorcroft who never wanted to leave Essendon, and Fatboy Pickett who was there just for the money.

    Thats true, I remember feeling shocked, with the loss of Woewodin. It felt like another blow to me as a supporter.

    But a sociable based afl club, as distinct from a hardened title hunting AFL side, 'can be', different things.

     

    That team, and this current team, are so far removed in mindset, its not funny.

    Heffernan was an absolute spud! His heart was never at Melbourne despite being a dees supporter as a kid. Came in with big expectations as he was touted to be Essendons next captain in waiting

    Up there as one of the worst players to pull on the red and blue.

    Gary Moorcroft was a gimp.

    On face value - Viney = no. 

    If Viney's foot/toe flares up again in the next few weeks? Romance aside, it would be a better result for the team long team.

    And yes i know that won't ever happen, especially since he is a captain, but as long as we're talking hypothetical's ...

    NFW to down trading our top 3 pick, we don’t need anymore of his type. 

    Ok, watch Hawthorn somehow get Hill, Coniglio, Patton, while we do the same thing and stand there like Winnie the Pooh...

    Trying to think outside the box a bit, Brad Hill will not solve all our problems...

    1) We'll have pick 2.

    2) Wouldn't be trading away pick 2 for a player that is not an automatic selection for any team in the league.

    3) Wines has plateaued; he's not the player he looked like becoming after his first two years.  Not to say he's not a good player, but he's not a top shelf target.

    Worth serious consideration definitely 

    We have the chance with pick 2 to get a very good player, rather than a 25 year old who is struggling at the moment and is another slow inside mid. We need real class badly.

    NO!

    Fair enough. Someone else suggested it and I thought your post was following the same theme.

    Yes I would take Ollie for the right deal.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
