Very interesting to know, though; have I come on purpose or have I simply walked here by chance? Raskolnikov.

Raskolnikov?

Thought it was fritter after he found himself in the defensive arc applying some all team defensive pressure.

Not been on Demonland much recently so not sure if this has been discussed anywhere.

Where is Gus these days? I've always believed and hoped he'd continue to be involved with the MFC post his playing days. Although I fully understand if he needed a break from 'everything' after his magnificent playing career was cruelly cut short.

Maybe footy is not part of short term thinking, but he is so loved and respected as well as intelligent and insightful, that he would be a huge acquisition to the club in any role he and the club deem suitable.

Anyone have an insight to how he's travelling and what he's up to?

I went to one of those events where a few players come and talk etc. The one I went to was Maysy, Clarry, and Max. They were asked about Gus and if they’d been in contact with him. They had and said he got into some exclusive commerce or economics program at Oxford that only takes 30 people per year and he was going. They didn’t give a ton of detail, just that he either was studying in London or getting ready to go.

No idea how accurate it is, but I can’t imagine they’d say something so specific if it wasn’t true.

  • 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.
