At 2 min mark, “Curtin to Van Rooyen”… its a sign !

The kick to the 2v 1 20 sec in is also too Van Rooyen.

For those watching the highlights when he’s wearing #7 he’s playing Colts when wearing #16 he’s playing seniors

    I'm not sure why we're interested in Curtin. He doesn't seem to suit our game style.

    - Curtin takes the game on from the backline, rather than stop and kick it long down the line.

    - Curtin seems to hit a target when under pressure.

    I'm sure we'll knock these traits out of him if we draft him.

    I assume the article states that we flew over and had a chat to Curtin?

    I still really like O'Sullivan, but I'm warming to Curtin.

    Hawthorn the risk of taking Curtin at 4. Bulldogs likely to take Sanders at 5. 

    If Hawks go Curtin I wonder if we take Watson at 6 or go a different route.

    If Curtin is there at 6 it would be a gift. 197cm that can play key position but moves well enough to play midfield gee wiz. Some of his movement is Pendles like.

    They’ve recruited quite well this off season DD, my best mate is a long suffering Perth fan always spend a few games during the season with him sharing a few frothies in the Pig Pen

    Charlie Constable, Aaron Clark and now Blake Schlenslog are 3 fantastic pick ups.

    They really lacked the height and physical size all year and o think these guys really give them some flexibility.

    Agree I'll be over the moon if we can get him at 6. Surely Hawthorn don't pass him up

    I would love to have Dan Curtin playing for Melbourne. However, I believe North Melbourne or Hawthorn will draft him. It's important to note that Griffin Logue won't be playing until the middle of next year and McKay has gone to Essendon. North Melbourne desperately need to draft key defenders.

    They will probably have Elijah Scoble Kaleb Dempster-Park and Jake Watson from their Colts side also coming into contention for the senior side

    Agreed. As @Pennant St Dee reported to us (many moons ago), Curtin has excellent spatial awareness.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
