Thanks for the late tip Red!

Was a maiden after 6 starts, who could tip it?

Btw, I don’t bet and don’t tip, for fear of anger when most tips lose, as they usually do.

    This Rumour smacks of Adelaide getting upset that they missed out on Petty also there are rumours that Goodwin maybe in their Sights as they are disappointed with their coach  if this is so Clarry will be overjoyed he doesnt get along with Goodwin 

    Huh????!

    They are extremely close.

    They are extremely close.

    I think that was sarcasm.

    This Rumour

    It was never a rumour, it was unfounded speculation (not unlike the rest of your risible post).

    Not the clearest example of the use of sarcasm, though. So unclear that I’m still not sure it is sarcasm.

    You are unsure it was sarcasm? Ok.

    Yes I’m unsure. Sarcasm is usually unambiguous but that post is confusing. Perhaps @Ferghus31 can explain? 

    Tom Morris is like a defective parrot. He only knows how to repeat the same thing over and over again.

    I didn't back it as I priced it at 12/1

    Centre Square a horse I am in with Clarry, won the 3rd race today at Ballarat.

     

    I've never seen so many people happy on this thread about news that doesn't shed light on his future with us, doesn't have an effect on the team and doesn't effect the people who liked it in any way whatsoever!

    Congrats though Mr Leg.

    Imagine if Clarry did a Tyson Stengle, the media & footy world would go into a frenzied meltdown

    And it’s not like Stengle hasn’t got form in this area….

    Would love to know how Geelong could legitimately satisfy us in a deal for Clarry. There’s simply no way they could appease us.

    Max Holmes and their first pick

    Geelong did a serious number on us at the end of 2020 (stirring the pot for Viney, outbidding us for Isaac Smith's services, and then jumping the exposed MFC draft order to claim Max Holmes), which has had significant repercussions on our second wing recruiting ever since. See Billings and Hunter and Freeman. 

    I say we turn the tables and make a bold play at uniting party-boys Oliver and Bailey at the MFC. We have better draft cookies than Geelong, and a starting midfield/wing line-up of Gawn, Clarry, Trac, Viney, B. Smith and Langdon would be one of the greatest ever assembled, with Pickett, Rivers and hopefully Judd running through.

    Where’s Caleb Windsor in that line up? Don’t mind Bailey Sniff but much  prefer Caleb who is, and will be, an absolute gun.

    As long as we get out of most of the contract you’re massively over valuing Oliver’s current worth. 
     

    Put it another way, if he was at another club what would you offer to get him to Melbourne?

    • 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.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
