Spam Mc has the lowest hit rate percentage out of all of the morons for correct media article drops. It would be good if there was a ladder for that.Ā

    Iā€™ve heard the entire playing list at Melbourne are showing interest in a variety of offers from rival clubs. The club has said it would be an innovative way to rebuild.

    Kane Cornes putting his hat in the ring suggesting that a high draft pick must be involved. And that high draft pick must come from us.

    Geelong receive - Oliver and a draft pick.

    Melbourne receive - nothing.

    Melbourne will also be paying 90% of his salary and taking on Jazzaā€™s farming bill too.Ā

    Ok fine. Iā€™ll bite - you move $6M off the books and replace it with what? If we were a shoe in for Reid or N Daicos, fine it would make sense, but we already have Grundy and Brayshaws salary to recoup. That hasnā€™t really been replaced with anyone. Ā

    No you misunderstand @Sir Windsor.

    Kane simply meant off our books and onto Ports šŸ˜

    Play our cards right and we can scoop up all the first round draft picks.Ā

    The space we made for Grundy circa 700k hasnā€™t really been replaced with anything. Fullarton, McAdam would be on peanuts.Ā

    It's ok. Gerard W thinks we should all part ways šŸ¤£

    What do these all have in common:

    "I can tell you that Harley Reid will not be being drafted by the West Coast Eagles.'

    'If you dont have Carlton as your premiership favourite in 2024 you dont know footy.'

    I would have a better strike rate with random spin-will trade stories.

    I think this is just hack juice from McClure.

    It's all just he said she said.

    I find this amusing. Does Clayton feel like the club are giving trac more attention or something?Ā 

    No seriously,Ā  what Max did to help Clayton, from the club getting around him, surely McClure has made this [censored] up

    I'm very interested if its a decent offer. Love Clarry but I just think we still have a window and need to take this sort of risk to really push for a flag again.

    Any window we have with this group is contingent on Clarry getting back to his best with us...

    Trading Oliver would nail shut any possibility of a rebound. Good to see the club knock this on the head.

    I'm generally somewhat a defender of journalists here at times, there are a few I find quite good, and I think often the reactions here to the differing news reports hinge on whether it's good news from a Demon perspective or not.Ā 

    In saying that, McClure is one who I believe has such a bad track record now with 'inside information' that I would go as far as to say I doubt there is any truth in his 'mail' as it stands.

    I definitely believe clubs would be throwing the bait out there, but McClure's comments about Oliver's feelings I find extremely hard to believe.

    I wish someone had a record of his predictions' success rate. That might wipe that smirk of his face. The smirk I think, reflects his awareness that he gets away with a lot of rubbish in his job.

    • CASEY: Geelong

      There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullartonā€™s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Caseyā€™s three matches and, with Melbourneā€™s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next weekā€™s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forwardā€™s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasnā€™t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the teamā€™s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourneā€™s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season.Ā There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight.Ā Since that game, the Demonsā€™ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where theyā€™ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ā€˜G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sundayā€™s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
