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.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, itā€™s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. Itā€™s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologistĀ  Itā€™s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now letā€™s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmedĀ the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).Ā

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Caseyā€™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 ruckmanā€™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 Demonsā€™ 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?

      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?
