    Unfortunately can’t give names.

    There is a Foundation members event on August 9th and wonder if it might be announced then. That could be a catalyst for seeking more donations from Foundation members.

    Ironically, he won’t have the opportunity to train in it.

    Though he will probably settle for 2xpremierships 🤞

    Hope this is true.

    Squeezing into MOPT was never going to work. We would have had to compromise too much.

    if true this great news. I know you said it’s unconfirmed …

    That's why it's a rumour.

    Nice one, though.

    I was at lunch with two MRC officials on the 22nd (Caulfield Races) and was talking about the development and mentioned that MFC needed a training facility. I got nothing that led me to form any sort of opinion - topic quickly changed to how hard it is to get anything done in the area due to Nimbys. In hindsight maybe the speed that we moved off the topic might mean something.!

    August 9, eh?

    There's another event on that day: the combined 50-year members and Ronald Dale Barassi Bequest Society annual get together. If there's big news I hope the pacemakers are fully charged.

    Will be going to that event. If any news maybe I could become the scoop master. Perty normally pops in for a brief rundown so if there is any news you will be first to hear it. 

    It was only a matter of time as this legitimately has been worked on by the Club, Council and other interested parties for a very long time.

    My interest is what Dan is going to donate to the cause. After todays announcement regarding the Public Service Superannuation fund there will be a stink of hypocrisy about any funds coming our way.

    Yes, timing is awful. Plus for wider acceptance clubs need a gimmick, some community element that sets them apart such as Bulldogs: western suburbs; Richmond : indigenous centre; Carlton: base of AFLW…I wonder what’s left for us?

    • 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.
