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. 


Someone needs an atlas or a new travel agent.

Melb Perth is 2,700 km. Perth Esperance 600km. Round trip 6,600 km.

I don't think our correspondent is up for a Pulitzer prize.

Went on a fishing trawler with Jaka somewhere out that way also

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: 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.
