I can’t work out the 3rd. I know who was banned and who got retired.

I agree, I can't think of the third person. Besides the obvious 2, I thought the rest of the departures were solid citizens.

    I had him marked as the one who retired.

    No thank you.

    I don't believe we are the sort of club that can turn a player like JUH around in the same way Geelong, Collingwood or some of the northern state clubs can. IMO he's more likely to create trouble rather than become the best player he can with us.


    Reports are that Jamarra Ugle-Hagan won't be at the Dogs for too much longer. Should the Demons try and recruit him? A Huge risk, but the bloke can play!

    No. I would have been a maybe a couple of months ago but too many even worse reports on his behaviour have emerged since.

    Absolutely no.

    Just asking the question mate.

    For Bevo to say his path back will be decided / guided by the AFL puts the mental health card to bed. Any club taking him on would be wanting clauses in his contract should certain scenario’s play out.

    Depends who bolts at years end. We are desperate for a goal kicker. Yes!

    could you be more specific?

    Yep, we had the Oliver situation which from all reports [censored] a lot of people off by how it was handled. Cultural issues going back years, a lot of positional infrastructure missing at admin level, a home base to sort out and ideally a cliff to not fall down over the next couple of seasons.

    Adding a person with complex issues, associated with seemingly dubious characters, that isn’t even showing up to their current club with any kind of consistency, that wouldn’t respond to Bontompelli’s mentoring leading to him being alienated from the group, to our club and expecting us to be able to handle it given our very recent form, is inviting disaster and very unneeded distractions.

    Risking our younger players being poorly influenced and it spilling over into derailing/hampering/alienating them. Any chance of that happening is unacceptable to me and could screw us big time when we have to find stability.

    No. No No No.

    He's becoming the Scott Morrison of AFL. Wants the job but doesn't want to do the work. Only listens to people telling him how great he is, and even those people are just trying to sell him something.

    We desperately need another good quality tall forward.

    But the Demons should only take JUH if he changed his attitude and behaviour.

    For 100k per year 1 year contract for a future 3rd - yes. Any more, then no.

    the reality is I reckon he’ll retire from Football. Just doesn’t have the desire anymore.

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
