So I guess if Barrett says he’s going he’s definitely staying then?

    Potential for an enormous amount of egg on face if we win this year's flag with Brodie.

    Apparently its Hinkley himself who wants Grundy, unsure where Port as a club sits on those wants and needs though.

    If I'm right in thinking that Port only have picks 36, 38, 71, 89 then they've got very little trade currency to offer us.

    He wanted Kozzie Pickett, too.  Look how well that worked for him.

    Extended bench but gee that would be cruel if they nobbled him from here.

    Considering Brown has been omitted, I'd say Grundy is in 

    Hmm I’m not so sure. Petty might play forward and keep Tomo in.

    The thing is, we need leadership in the forward line.  Brown was providing that.  Petty is still young, and hasn't played enough in the forward to provide leadership.

    It's a fair point, helps to have someone who can  'lead the line'. This is something T-mac provides as well.

    Exactly, we've lacked it to a certain extent since TMac got injured. I believe it's a key aspect as to why our forward line hasn't been firing as well.  Drop Brown, fine, but then bring in that leadership.  Grundy is experienced enough to do that.

    I’d take Butters, or shove it up you Port! 😂

    The media hasn't referenced Brodie or his camp once when talking about a potential 3rd change of club.

    I find the whole thing quite disrespectful towards his character, who himself said he's a professional and will act as such when quizzed by a reporter at Casey.

    He’s played forward more than Grundy. I just think they’ll give Grundy one more week in the vfl before they pull the trigger and bring him back.

    We’ve been keen on Mitch Georgiades since his draft year…

    If Grundy does go, do we try to get Silvagni from the Blues as the more model 2nd ruck that has some forward craft? He looks to be on the outer to free up cap space for De Koning

    We don't want Grundy to go unless we get a Godfather deal, because if Grundy goes Collingwood save $$$$$$$$.

    If you believe in ‘culture and values’ of the MFC that Goody always goes on about (and I do) I have no doubt that Grundy will be around for the finals and for a few years to come.  Go Grundy and Go Dees!

    I think what we need is a contest and second and third efforts. Unfortunately Brown doesn't offer much if he's not marking the ball and last week he had zero marks in the F50.

    • 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.
