To...us?

We have definitely put our best foot forward with this one. I think it's GWS, Adelaide and then us (without really knowing).

    I think you're right.

    Very well played by Peatling's management, he'll get his bag.

    I'm sure some Demonlanders will blame Pert.

    With Peatling out of the equation, let's hope we keep all our current and future 1st and 2nd round draft picks, and have a mini rebuild.

    Plus the media don't want us getting anyone good. Only their teams.

    If the Crows don't land him, they might double-down on Clarry, which gives us better leverage if that's the way it goes.

    Did we offer him the best contract?

    Might be a question for @Dannyz

    So you don’t know.

    But you’re comfortable stating that the reason why he’s possibly maybe not coming to Melbourne in a future decision he’s not publicly stated is because our club is ‘a burning building’?

    You’re right, it’s possible that another club offered him more money and this is his motivation. 

    Doesn’t change the fact that we aren’t exactly an attractive destination to outsiders. Undergoing a review, wanting to offload one of our best players, still need at least two new line coaches, Trac’s saga. It’s not a good look when you’re trying to attract talent. People want a stable work place.

    Listening over lunch break earlier and diagnosis is that Peatling likely to stay at Giants. 4 year deal is a solid win for him and his manager.  Definitely improved this year and his “hard at it “ style warranted others trying to get him.

    Disappointing that we are not in the race anymore.

    Let's hope the draftees want to come here because right now we're about us popular as a blowfly at a butcher's picnic.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?

    • GAMEDAY: Brisbane

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are back on the road with a massive challenge ahead — facing the reigning premiers, the Brisbane Lions, at their Gabba fortress. The Lions are licking their wounds after a shock draw in Tasmania last week, while Melbourne’s season hangs in the balance. Can the Dees defy the odds and pull off a miracle to keep their razor thin finals hopes alive?
