Anyone watching Tex today is gonna have to think twice about not wanting him at the dees. He’s destroying us… with some help from the umps. 

Ben Brown used to do the same. Hasn’t gotten a free kick since he’s been at Melbourne. 
At least he isn’t a [censored] human.

Our core business is winning at footy, with that in mind we have a need to get into bed with the Texan.

I disagree, from a business perspective our goal is to build our supporter base and thus our market share.

I can't see Tex bringing any supporters with him.

Bluey you are correct completely.  I'll barto is wrong. Let's get in board or into bed whichever is more fruitful with the Texan  and love him as one of our Demon youngsters if he improves our team.

Can confirm his Gran has put an offer in on a house in Cranbourne East. Make of this what you will. 

She wants to watch him train once a week at Casey Fields, and maybe play there also !!! 

Get her a bus to the G if Tex Makes  it at the Dees Plus a cheeseboard and the premiership Shiraz or the Demon Gin.

Geez, they still love him over there. Could be a culture killer for us though. If we did pick him up I'd live with it if I knew we could afford to drop him after the preliminary final so he couldn't win a premiership medal.

If it was anybody else playing this way, we would be begging to get him.

His football is very good, everything else leaves a bit to be desired - although I think he would be a long way from the only one acting in the way he is, just unfortunately all happened very publicly for him (Lever, indigenous boys etc)

Fail to see why he'd be a culture killer. The Hawks recruited a 20kg overweight Stewie Dew, and he was largely responsible for winning them a flag.

How are they comparable?

 

I see the allure of a Walker. But the intangibles really worry me within what this team has built. Do we ask the leaders to manage another DH? Honestly, ask me again in 3 months after watching this forward line…

Stewie Dew clearly didn't worry about his diet like a professional sportsman should.

Whilst you may not forgive Tex for his prior indiscretions, maybe the Melbourne players don't see themselves as perfect, and are more forgiving.

Would be very easy to get Walker into the Club. Just need to word the Contract very carefully. 
Any indiscretions and the deal is null and void. 
Ben Cousins lasted 2 years at Richmond, Walker isn’t at that level

Tex is a highly skilful player, I love watching him play regardless what most think of him outside footy. He’s played some great footy over the last couple of years. I’d gladly take him.

I literally can’t stand him. Rationally he might be great for us. Irrationally I want to throw up at the thought of this man lining up in red and blue. 

I fully endorse this level of irrational crazy

    TRAINING: Tuesday 28th May 2024

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin returned to the training track to bring you the following observations from Gosch's Paddock this morning. Beautiful morning for training. The dew has dried, out from AAMI, quiet chatting. Maysie does his heart symbol. 7 in rehab, Turner, Hore, Sestan, BBB, Petty, Spargo and Schache. All in runners. Melky weighted and change of angles work. Salem has his individual program. White cap (no contact), Howes, Woewodin and Sparrow

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w

    GAMEDAY: Rd 11 vs St. Kilda

    It's Game Day and after 2 losses on the trot the Dees must win against the Saints today at the MCG to keep in touch with the Top 4. A loss today will see them drop out of the Top 8 for the first time since 2020.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th
