Won the GF sprint, just edging Frosty.

Only saw the heat but Frost looked stuffed, Ben King looked like he hadn't broken out of stride. Was a lock for the gf sprint victory after seeing that.

    Steven May traded in pick for Hoges was Ben King, number 6 in last years draft  + KK who got a 3 yr deal and will most likely be a bust due to ongoing concussion issues....

    Dees need to nail their picks.  Not just try to poach players.  

    Totally agree... I think we have been poor as a club trading top end picks. We don’t seem to get that right.

    However, Pick 3 needs to be on the table to get Ben King this season. I would be prepared to move on one or two players as well and free some salary cap.

    Ben King will be the best KPF for the next 10 years!

    His brother might give it a nudge.

    I think Ben will be the better of the two... Just my opinion.

    However, both will be great players over the next 10-15 seasons! I think playing at different clubs is best for there careers.

    It all depends on what happens, re- priority picks with GC this year.

    If they get given pick 2, then i'd be all for going after Ben King with pick #3. If we end up with pick 2, then i'd go after Anderson and try and figure out how to bring in 2 Meter Peter with our future first rounder next year and possibly our 2nd rounder this year.

    Either way, we need to bring in a quality KPF as well as a quality mid in the next 2 years. Both King & Wright are over 200cms, so could provide a ruck chop out in future, whilst playing the majority of time in the FWD line.

    As for quality mids, bring in any that we can get our hands on. I think we are well set for smalls and KPD's. Mids, KPF and good small forwards are first on our list of needs.

    Really DD !!

    Well off for smalls  ?? You must be the only Dees supporter of over 1/4 of a million that says we are well off for smalls.

    Glad they haven't got you in the room at the draft and FD meetings!

    This thread is a waste of time and space and is fantasy driven.

    Nowhere is there any shred of evidence that the King from GC will be up at the Dees

    its just fanciful snd a waste of space.

    Elliot is a sure thing in comparison to this drivel

    Give me a spell 

    Really? Has anyone remotely mentioned the word "superstar" next to Ben Kings name?

    A quick small (like Elliott) -- King -- Hannan

    Fristch -- McDonald -- Melksham

    That is a much more potent forwardline, particularly with Petracca, Vandenberg and Harmes rotating in and out. 

    Even if we by some chance get Elliott, I'd be recruiting another two zippy smalls. To be honest, they usually come out of WA or even SA/NT.

    It also relegates Weideman to third fiddle, but I could see us playing three talls against certain opponents.

    And for those implying King's recruitment is linked to the GF sprint, take a look at this thread - most of it prior to the Grand Final sprint. Ridiculous.

    No. His manager said he wasn't seeking a trade. There's a difference.

    • 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.
