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.

    • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

      What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
