Chris From Camberwell!

Just listening in to SEN when a caller by the name of Chris from Camberwell rang with three points to make:-

1. Melbourne needs a key forward and should go after McCarthy from GWS by offering its first round pick.

2. Melbourne should be claiming Darcy Parish as father/son because his father Les Parish played more than 100 games for us.

3. Melbourne should claim Andy Lovell's son under the father/son rule as he's a gun.

I don't have a problem with the first point although McCarthy wants to go back home to WA to play for Freo.

On the second, Darcy isn't Les' son and in any event, Les only played 7 games for us so he's not eligible to go father/son.

On the third, Kieren Lovell who is the player referred to, isn't Andy's son either.

I did however, love the bloke's passion, even if he is a bit misguided.

Anyone know him?

    With gems like those, he could be one of many posters on Demonland.

    I'm a little gun shy on his first idea. Luring a player when they are halfway home to WA has ultimately not panned out too well for us recently.

    I don't think I've ever seen someone on here who thinks they are more on top of the F/S options available than the club. That is some next level stupid right there.

    Old Chris from Camberwell is a classic. Not as good as Terrence from Toorak but surely Chris has to be taking the p155.

    The fact he genuinely believes the club has overlooked a top 5 draft prospect as a Father Son selection is just brilliant.

    No idea who he is, but the idea of trading for McCarthy is nuts. We are worried about hogan being a flight risk, why would you add another?? Imagine selling the farm for Cam only to watch him and hogan [censored] off to WA.

    Chris from Camberwell has been ringing in for over a decade - SEN/3AW. His whiny voice is arguably the worst ever heard on the airwaves and he is always, and I mean always, asking incredibly inane questions.

    Have heard him many times, always 'all over the shop' in his questions and you can sense the hosts sinking in their chairs as they look to their producers - asking why on earth they put the call through.

    Well, if it's Picket then it isn't an act...

    He had robbo on the ropes. Robbo said that if Andy lovells son is good enough then they should take him. I tweeted robbo to let him know the [censored] had been taken and as yet I have had no response

    I've always assumed he is a frequent poster on Demonland, still a small part of me thinks he's a made up character someone puts on as well.

    I am afraid he is far too eloquent for a Demonland poster.

    He's probably in withdrawal right now.

    OK, OK. I admit it. .................. I am not Chris from Camberwell. But gee, it does make any Dees supporter cringe when he gets on talk back radio. If he utters any prognostication, you don't even have to think about putting in the waster paper bin.

    He usually starts the call by saying he tips a lot of money into the club then proceeds to threaten the club that he'll pull his funds if things don't turn around.

    He once claimed the club should appoint David Neitz as senior coach. This was about two years after Neitz retired and had no coaching experience.

    He's either taking the pi$$ or he's actually insane.

    • 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?
