    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.

    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

    I was talking about the flag. I would never waste a wish on a single player.

    Well I guess I just did but the footy gods no longer speak to me. At least not in the last two years. Perhaps I need to start small.

    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.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons are back at the MCG for the second week in a row. They face the Suns off a 15 day break without their prized recruit and former Demon champion Christian Petracca. This will be a massive test for the Demons who will be facing a genuine Premiership contender. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Carlton

      The text messages started flooding in shortly after quarter time. One read: “Is Melbourne even at the ground?” Moments later, as Carlton’s Elijah Hollands kicked the first goal of the second term, the Blues held a commanding 43-point lead. By then, the Demons’ only score was a behind kicked by Brody Mihocek nearly five minutes into the game. Ironically, Mihocek would also register the last minor score of the day after the game took a dramatic turnaround.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      The Demons snatched Victory form the Jaws of Defeat as they clawed their way back from 43 points down to win by 23 points in Max Gawn and Tom McDonald's 250th matches at the MCG. Never in Doubt!!!
