I can't get my head around it. What are they doing (besides their superior facilities than ours) that we are not?

    $$$ - and you’re automatically in their best 22.

    Must be better than playing in the VFL for 80% of the season at a better club.

    It’s being reported that Richmond won’t stand in the way of Butler moving elsewhere and a fourth round pick has been suggested as adequate for a trade.

    Problem for Melbourne as things stand is that we don’t have a fourth round pick after yesterday’s trading.

    Lockhart will do fine. Will be 24 next year and as tenacious as ever to keep his place in the team.

    with the dearth of small forwards who can rotate through the midfield and the demand for them, butler will be in demand at the end of the season from multiple clubs i suspect

    could yet end up a two-time premiership player if one of castagna, rioli, bolton, etc. were to get injured on the run-in to the tiggas winning it all

    sigh

    he's been outstanding for the aints this year

    most amazing thing is the tiggas didn't even use the pick they got for him; it was a straight-up gift wrapped in a bow to moorabbin

    You can't continue to annoy the entire board but then complain when people call you out.

    Each week you bump threads out of nowhere, many of which are your threads to begin with, almost always after losses.

    Nothing wrong with bumping threads. Just highlighting how badly we need decent small forwards as our current fwd line is devoid of pressure

    I must admit having thought the same thing last year. I assumed he had injury or 'other' problems for there to be such a low, industry-wide, interest in him. Inexplicable and unexplainable. 

  • Quote

    Had a superb season. One of the exact players we are missing. 
    What a shame he has gone to that club

    I wanted him to E. I saw great potential when I saw his VFL games last year.

    I just don't understand why a thread from last year needs to be brought up again? I'm sure it doesn't you or I any comfort at all? Yeah it hurts to see him play well but people just need to get over it and move on.

    I have hopes that Pickett and Bedford can be our specialist small forwards for us moving forward.

    I was just curious if anyone on here knew why Melbourne didn't chase him, hence why I bumped this

    Dan Butler, Josh Mahoney and Tim Lamb will be your best bet to ask.

    After he kicked his 23rd goal today I also thought we should have got him last trade period.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back at the MCG and have a massive challenge ahead of them as they take on Premiership contender the Gold Coast Suns. What do you want to see from the Dees today?

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
