Alex Keath for a third rounder and we’ll throw in a fourth rounder for them to keep Gibbs.

I just got this. Very good Moon, very good.

@Moonshadow was subtle but loaded with innuendo.  I also thought it was very clever.  Right up there with his #gettherabbit post re Coniglio.

You could buy fairy floss at the Melbourne Show much, much cheaper.

And it would be far more satisfying! As SOFT a player as I can remember!

Really PF. I can think of a past Melbourne player who may have him beat.

I actually regret posting that PF as I didn't mean it to be a 'click bait' comment. I think Cale had his moments.

Is it his fault Melbourne could not build a body on the skinny player we recruited as a high pick.

I actually thought Morton was a good smart player early days. Knew where to run and always created an option, he was ignored a lot of times. That’s exactly what he’s doing there, the video just makes it look like he’s playing chicken. 

In terms of his development, I don’t know, another wasted pick.

He was ignored a lot of times, because that's what happens when you call for it from the car park outside the ground!

What a wasted pick!

If he was actually a good kick (as was advertised pre-draft), he might have made it despite his flaws. 


for pick 88 and they pay 60% PLUS of his wage you would consider it, but he went back to SA for family , not money. I very much doubt he will  come back to Vic to play. Why would he when he is getting paid serious coin there to play in SANFL

It'd be the equivalent of the NBA salary cap dump, David King wrote an article this week about selling draft picks in the future, but this is an area I think the AFL might actively get behind first. They might encourage older players on big coin to go to developing clubs while freeing up cap space of the club they are leaving.

It doesn't help that the Port players arms are thicker than Cale's legs. 

 

It also doesn't show that Cale realised we had won possession of the ball, ran forward to make position, received the pass and kicked it to one of our forwards who duly converted for goal.   Not saying Cale was a tough man, but this clip misrepresents what actually happened in that piece of play.

Spot on! I reckon many on DLand would be aware of those facts. It's akin to trolling to put that clip up and perpetuate the misrepresentation of Cale and the reality of that incident.

  • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

    Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

  • REPORT: Adelaide

    The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

  • CASEY: Coburg

    The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

  • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

    After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
