The 2 that I can remember are Stan Alves and Greg Wells. Spalding was a good player as well.

    Jeff Farmer. Would  also have first dibs at his son.

    Michael Byrne,  a ruckman who was off-loaded to Hawthorn and won a premiership with them in the mid-80's

    A fit Scully would be great now, but I don't blame him for leaving.

    Martin & Thompson are the two that I really regretted seeing leave.

    If we had Dunn and Howe right now we'd be serious contenders for the worst injury list. Scully would be the cherry.

    I can live with scully leaving because it was pure money but I don't know why for the life of me we traded stef martin? He was always going to become elite. He was elite when given opportunity to ruck solo. He should have been prioritised over jolly/jamar or anyone else that was the reason we traded him out.

    Mitch Clark may or may not have made a pass at Stef's girlfriend. After that point, it may or may not have mattered. Stef wanted out, and we were doing anything we could to keep Mitch happy.

    And kicked eight the week we sold him to the Hawks, while on the same day the Dees had five between 22 players.

    Martin Pike is definitely the most successful ex-Demon, but nobody would have seen four flags coming after his time with us and Fitzroy.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
