I knew all the scenario with him standing out of Football for a year etc, i was sure he was also adamant that it was Collingwood or bust after those 2 years at the Bears. 
why wasn’t he interested to be a Demon, considering what he said on Radio this morning?

Presumably b/c he perceived they could not win a premiimership, which turned out to be right over that period. Wonder what he thinks now?

    i doubt he was a real invested demon fan

    as a kid he lived all over australia but i don't think victoria

    like most interstate kids he would have had his best favourite local team where he lived and picked melbourne as a sort of quasi vfl team as the vfl was seen as the heart of footy (he was already 18 when the vfl became the afl)

    but that's just a bit of a guess 

    Well he was committed enough to volunteer unprompted on 360 30 years later that he was a Dees  fan as a kid. I think that is significant…..

    i never said he wasn't a fan of sorts

    when i was a kid i had a favourite side in the sanfl, the wafl, the vfa etc etc but i wasn't really invested as such

    but you may be right, he might have been a really keen fan.  i just have my doubts

    • 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.
