The Brandon Starcevich thread

Little Goffy

Yes, it is early in the season for this kind of talk, but Starcevich I think should have a thread just to remind us to monitor his progress through the season and develop a clear picture.

It is possible he'll be interested, possible he'll be reasonably priced, possible Brisbane will have other salary cap priorities, and possible he would add an extra set of fast legs to our team, and in particular be someone capable of closing down an opposition small-medium forward, which is a particular deficiency of ours ever since Neville Jetta retired.

Some links to get it started - including a draft profile which has proven remarkably precise relative to how Starcevich's career has panned out so far;

    Would be a perfect fit in our defense. However, if he was to move, I think he'd be likely to head home to WA.

    He'd be very handy. Why would he leave Brisbane? Former F/S too.

    FS - Father-Son (doesn't apply to Starcevich though).

    Good footballer, rate him, good traditional Croatian surname to boot 🇭🇷

    A guy I’d just ADORE at MFC…

     

    Wants to play midfield in years ahead and why not, but for us he’d be a great pick up more as a small back which we’re dying for at present!

     

    Tough, low-key good kick, has an aura about him — why not have a crack dees haha

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • 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.
