    to be honest, the king bros don't do a huge amount for me

    their primary ability is height, and they both suffer from a shortage of the greatest ability of them all; availability

    Ben’s played 14 - 17 - 22 - 0 - 20 games in his career. Pretty good for a young key forward.

    You can have King, Wade, McKenna and Hudson in our forward line and still wouldn't kick a winning score. King just a youngster starting out whilst Wade had Goggin then Krakouers, Mckenna had Price etc hitting them up on the lead whilst Hudson had the whole forward line to himself. Until our current Mids learn to lower eyes and deliver correctly then no big name in our forward line will get us to the next premiership. Would prefer mids with elite disposal and awareness and stay with Petty JVR etc. Give me a Guilden like player and I'd be happy.

    Interesting...

    GC in need of cap space (perpetually) and Walter is set to come in to quickly relegate King to second fiddle.

    Not the silliest suggestion.

    Has only worked once in nearly 47 years for me. Thought I might try something smaller.

    New studies have found that people who try to manifest wealth through positive visualisation are significantly more likely to declare bankruptcy.

    If we now get Brayden Preuss on a five-year deal I'm blaming you.

    If we're helping out Gold Coast with their salary cap problems, I'd be much keener on Lukosius (obviously) and also, pretty sure that is Max King in the opening picture.

    Get your point totally. But Wade retired in '75 and Krakouers started in '82.

    Unfortunately still a good and accurate story even with the correct facts. Nothing wrong with the accurate story of Cable, Greig, Schimmelbusch & Alves delivering the ball to Wade. Not to mention the Galloping Gasometer.

    I'm hearing a rumour from a reliable source (Nudge), that Harmes, T. Mac, BBB and our future 4th will get the deal done. As a sweetener, we'll also offer them Dunstan.

    Surely we'd be asking them to pay 30% or more of his salary as well

    Doesn’t matter.. another poster said we would’ve won the flag this year if we offered a retired (and broken) Josh Kennedy a one-year contract. With such a compelling case, I can’t see any issues with offering a broken and retired player a contract.

    I don't see how either of the King boys solves our goal kicking inaccuracy problem.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?
