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.

    Did he want Wines?

    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.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
