Same article suggests we should target Bruce Gibbs. 

What are the odds of that happening?

Who's this Bruce Gibbs fella?

He played for Carlton once, like Bryce Doull ( who was a decent defender but had less hair) You surely remember him.

A code hopper like Israel Folau or Karmichael Hunt (only older).

OMG.  Why not just close the club down, or  sell off Ollie, Brayshaw, Gawn and anyone else who could help us get somewhere?

I am 100% certain that GC$ would love to have Clarrie.

i'm pretty sure there would be 17 clubs lining up to get him, not just GCS.

 

 

Now they can write the same article on the Pies and suggest clearing DeGoey and Stevenson to the Suns.

1. Paying Oliver a mega deal would hurt the Suns, they have to pay every one of their current players 20% over to stay, they’d lose 4 to bring in one big money guy. Nice idea but it won’t happen.

2. Tom McDonald was the main man last year even with Hogan and we rarely played 3 talls together. We need Melsham back and a 3rd tall cover for Jake. Joel Smith was the plan. The draft is probably the long term answer.

3. Gibbs has lost pace and hunger for the ball, his future is probably as a half back and we’ve already got Jones for that.

4. Langdon is an obvious move and Butler is a nice proposition as well, he’s got that bit right.

How old was Ronald when he left, his playing career was over by then, he went to Carlton mostly as a coach, and why did he because norm smith told him to, if he wanted to coach.

The available range of emojis does not adequately accord with the mirth I am currently experiencing.

I am feeling most mirthsome.


The article didn’t suggest the Dees should trade Oliver, but rather the Gold Coast should target him... there’s a big difference.

If I were in charge of an horrendously underperforming side, I’d make overtures to ANY talented player also

If Gibbs and Lever are worth 2 first rounders, GC would need to stump up 3. Or 2 + Jack Martin.

Last player i would trade.

Yep, we would need 3 x number one picks to even get close to drafting a player as good as Oliver.

This is the sort of article you read in the off season. 

Click bait "r" us.

Why stop at Clarry, why not have a garage sale and sell the whole place?

Yes lets give up our good players to start yet another rebuild?

 

Now that is an interesting thought. Let's start  a topic anew: Who to trade at season's end - and how much will we get for these players? Or, Who not to trade under any circumstances - otherwise, empty to lists?

I'd start with the latter.

Gawn, Clarrie, Gus, Salem, Petracca, Frosty, May, Jetta, Melksham, J. Smith. 

Goddard has always been a muppet. If Melbourne traded Clarry, that'd be it for me.

 

Goddard is correct, of course GC should go after Oliver, they’re a mess and they need A-grade talent. I obviously hope it doesn’t happen though.

  • 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.
