Wow Hugh Goddard has been a big disappointment on the field  , wasn't he a first round pick?

    Is Ben the runt of the litter? Never even heard of him until today.

    Ben Silvagni was drafted on name alone.

    They needed more Bens.

    Early second round. Suffered an Achilles injury early on and was out for 12 months, struggled since.

    Yep, first round pick. There was a couple of free agent compos and a father/son pick, so he went pick 21 classed as first round.

    Poor bloke. Hate seeing promising youngsters turn into duds due to injury. I'm confident Jimmy Toumpas couldve been a great outside player had he not injured his hips in draft year.

    Isn't there another one or two Silvagni's yet to come?

    It's a ruthless game!

    There will be quite a few they are holding onto just to have some options around trade time.

    -Some- of those may be of interest to fill our 18th to 25th spots, so to speak.

    But no, they will not trade the younger Curnow or Mr McKay.  I don't think they'd even do it for another Judd, after seeing Josh Kennedy personally outscore them so many times in the last ten years!

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      The Demons come face to face with St. Kilda for the second time this season for their return clash at Marvel Stadium on Sunday. Who comes in and who goes out?
