I really just want Collingwood to be forced to eat this for another year or two at least.

Did Naughton start as a back? I can't remember if WB started him in the backline and then out of necessity he was moved forward.

Yes, he was recruited as a Centre Halfback. Luke played him forward as at the time they lacked a marking target. Given the backline is suspect I am surprised he hasn't been moved back but then they haven't had many marking targets until now

Gee 10 games? 

I guess it still beats 10 games of having nothing.

Yup 10 games, he doesn't travel, and it gives JVR good access to develop too.  

it's all a pipe dream but it could work if he wanted another medal.  i think he is happily retired though

Cal Twomey saying not to rule out Melbourne yet as a destination for Karl Amon.

Langdon and Amon on either wing would be awesome....Really rate him, elite field kick, has pace and skills, works really hard both ways.

Edited by NeveroddoreveN

Amon is exactly what we need, Jordan is a really good role player on the wing, but i actually think we're missing his hands inside, and Amons speed and kicking combination is something we really lack. 


I really hope Heppell considers the gold coast offer. I can't see him leaving but god it would set back Essendon & I reckon there supporters would be filthy.

A new contender emerges

Happy Goal GIF by CollingwoodFC

I can see clubs chasing Tomlinson and Bedford . Personally we have a lot of small forwards , one player will go. Tomlinson is finding it hard to break into the back six , ideally we should have tried him as a forward. BB and Weid are not up to it .

On the subject of Naughton will cost too much and he lacks consistency.

Exactly, Ed and Amon on either wing would be an incredible threat. Gives us more ability to hurt opposition by foot.

I thought Amon was a turnover merchant?

Well he's good for an outside 50 goal at least

At 47.28 how consistent do you want?  6th in the Coleman and better than Fritta.  And he is only 22.

The boy can leap at the footy I'll give him that. 

If he is gettable we should have a go, but I don't think he is a better forward than Fritta.

Regardless of who is better (Naughton by a long way), two of them is better than one.

Is Naughton any chance of leaving the Dogs??

I would think it is low.

  • 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.
