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.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old sideā€”the Tigersā€”coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking?Ā I mean by ā€œtheyā€ the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.Itā€™s no secret that the Demonsā€™ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack.Ā Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryanā€™s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winningĀ 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
