    With the worst midfield I think I have ever seen, surely Dew could have got more use out of Lyons and Barlow in particular

    I think our 2013 VFL midfield would have given them a run for their money.

    Craig Cameron came out and said 'we couldn't guarantee him a spot as we have young talent we need to get games into'.

    Sound familiar?

    Marty Lyons..can anyone confirm-I think he wore Number 29?

    cant remember but do remember that he was clever, well balanced and a natural footballer. Probably a bit slow.

    one of those players, that later you say, whatever happened to ...........

    but we had a lot of players in that period that seemed to have the goods but did not go on.

    Thx Hemingway. Just checked on Demonwiki - he wore No 12. 1975-77 was cleared back to Sandringham and eventually played in a premiership and then later coached their Reserves.

    I want to know how in the hell this was approved by the AFL.

    If the player is delisted, he should be in the draft.  That hasn't happened yet. 

    Every other club should have had a chance to draft him.

    Or has the trade period now been extended to 365 days a year!

    Delisted players have become delisted free agents for a number of years now, quite rightly so. If you're cut from one team you deserve the chance to restart your career at the club of your choice.

    The only issue here is Lyons was delisted with a year to run on his contract but the AFL were satisfied it was a mutual agreement between Lyons and GC to delist him.

    No 12

    “but unlikely to play many minutes in a midfield that now contains Anthony Miles and George Horlin-Smith,”

    wow! That’s who’s keeping him out of the midfield in 2019?

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
