    Tim Taranto had to be talked out of getting a MFC tattoo in the year of his draft. He is a gun coming into his prime. He is one I believe will come home to support his childhood dream.

    That'd be super super tasty, if that was to occur.

    • Demonland changed the title to Which Dees Players Grew Up Supporting Us?

    Garry Lyon was Chris Juddd's hero.  When he was at Caulfield Grammer, he wore number 3 on his back.  Scott Pendelbury and his family were Dees supporters.  Going back a fair way, Bobby Skilton and his family were ardent Dees supporters.

    Hang on. What? Nathan Buckley? And Taylor Adams? 

    I knew Weitering was a Melbourne supporter, as was Devon Smith and I think Adam Tomlinson.

    Not sure I knew about Shuey either.

    Pretty sure Tomlinson was a Carlton supporter.

    Clearly we need to just draft Melbourne supporters based on these lists...

    Shuey definitely was. Buckley? Never heard that and never wish to again.

    Thought I read once that Jack Viney was a Hawthorn supporter because Todd was working at the Hawks at the time Jack decided.

    Been mentioned but Tarranto, Harmes, Prestia, Buddy, Pendlebury, Gaff, Shuey, McKay are the current day players I know of.

    Always liked Andrew Gaff* and now I know why. 
     

    * Except for that one time when he caused Gus’s brother to have to drink puréed food through a straw for a while. 😆

    • 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.
