Everyone wants to join the $$$$$saints.  

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.

    Future fourth... done.

    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.

    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.

    • 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.
