    Would definitely be a good get! Only knock on him is he averages less than a goal a game. But 24, super athletic.

    has never had a consistent run at it

    reckon he could be good

    Well done Harmesy!!

    He could always finish

    being a consistent performer was the issue

    Hunner percent. Tough competition with Hogan, Riccardi and Stringer in that forward line.

    To think we let Harmes go and kept Hunter

    Kennedy is in the top 40 players in the league this year, I was pretty surprised that Carlton let him go.

    How’s the KPF depth at Doggies.

    JUH out for a KPD will do the dogs a lot of good. They won’t win a flag without a proper full back.

    The guy I think we got wrong and I always had a lot of time for (and was one of our few goalkicking midfielders) is Harmes. We miss what he can provide, plus another around the ground mid rotation. I'd have him ahead of Sharp for example.

    Of course Harmes was a considered a liability , banished to Casey and told to seek opportunities elsewhere.

    After signing with the Dogs … “I felt like I could really belong to this club and feel like they really believed in me. They do believe in me that I can be a really good AFL footballer”.

    Traded to Dogs in exchange for a future third-round pick (which the Dees used with future 1st in a 4 pick bundle to get higher draft pick in 2024 draft)

    3/4 time Dogs v Giants

    Harmes 4 goals 15 possessions, 80% disposal efficiency, 10 score involvements

    I assume you are intelligent person

    Harmes left as he couldn’t hold down a spot in the 22. Same as he has been dropped by the dogs. If you don’t remember all his poor games, I can refresh your memory

    Hunter was brought in to fill a hole on the wing

    2 separate situations

    I understand his trading was cultural, but still...

    you just forgot to mention he only managed 9 games last year and has been dropped multiple times

    So banished to Casey and to the Dogs VFL team so maybe a Harmes issue

    one premiership between em

    Harmes 4 goals V GWS. Very pleased for him. He turned the '21 GF with his beautiful pass to Fritter in Q3.

    The players we’ve traded in have been a massive failure no doubt, but we traded out Harmes at the end of 2023 and if you look at player ratings that year, he was rated 30th out of a possible 34 players on our list.

    • 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.
