    Fantastic news!

    Stoked to see what Petty can do with a full pre season as a tall forward.

    Finally some good news. Really hoping Petty has a strong preseason and is over his OP issues. Sparrow is handy to have too.

    Agreed.

    Also pleased with Sparrow's progress.  He didn't set the world alight, but I think there is a real chance that he could become a best 22 player in the coming years.

    Yep, would have easily played more games if it wasn't for his shoulder injury.

    Let's get Petty fit and firing and  KP back or forward awaits.

    Liked Sparrows improvement and the way he was hungry when either in the play or resting on the Forward  line to score. Goals from mids are priceless and we must get more from 2021on.

    Very happy with this as Adelaide must have been sniffing around.

    These two have shown enough to me that they could make it.  Good signings.

    Great news. Two kids with good potential imo. Would have been annoyed to loose either one. Hopefully they step up next year.

    Petty 20 yo can play forward as he has shown in the past and recruited as a key backman . Great to see the loyalty.

    Sparrow an up and coming future midfielder imo will make the grade. It is good to see our future signing up. They are great kids.

    This is great to retain these SA boys. I'm hoping in the next couple of years they'll develop and show their worth.

    Good try Adelaide - eat crow [censored]

    Interesting. I wonder how far off further list management decisions are.

    I assume as the external review is being conducted, the FD just operates as normal.

    Is one happening AF? I have Heard nothing of it and my email on the same subject To the chairman of two weeks ago has not been answered. Don’t be surprised if there is no external review undertaken.I now think that we may get a small internal review that changes a few things around the edges. Hope I am wrong!

    There is one happening, yes. If one wasn't happening, you'd be more likely to get a conciliatory email.

    Is that your only proof? I am hoping he has taken a break or still in QLD or  has not even got it / read it yet. I am at the stage of believing it when I see it.

    Well done Dee’s, they have the potential to help us continue our climb up the ladder, quality kids!

    Glad Petty is signed on. I was afraid he’d get cut with reduced lists due to ongoing injuries. He’s got potential at either CHB or CHF. Could be the missing piece of the puzzle for our forward line if he get stay on the park.

    • 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.
