Its time for Gary Lyon to give something back to the club that gave him everything he has

Well, we all know Chris Judd grew up idolising the Demons, and in particular our amazing skipper, Garry Lyon

Apparently, Chris wore the number 3 cos of Gary (I think thats true, can anyone confirm?)

Lyon is smitten with Judd. Judd respects Gary. So what role can Lyon play in getting Judd to the MFC?

I am pretty sure Chris Connolly will be on the phone to his mate Gary Lyon as I type this, asking him to meet with Juddy. Perhaps Connolly will be at the meeting as well.

Who knows?

Either way, I think we have every resource at our disposal to get Judd to the MFC.

I wish you'd stop hanging it on Lyon every chance you get as if he owes the club anything at all. He doesn't.

That said, if a phone call from him would make any difference at all in getting Judd here then I hope it happens. I seriously doubt it would make any difference at all though.

How could Gary not owe the club anything?

He wouldn't have made any name for himself in the media and the like unless he'd been a footballer, which he was at Melbourne.

IMO I think any person that is given an opportunity (for some, the opportunity of a lifetime) to do something, they then owe that person at least something, and if it's a persuasive phone call in this case, then so be it.

With Bizzell retiring, the number 3 jumper is now available! Who knows - could well be fate?!

I agree when you saying that Lyon may have influence in getting him to Melbourne (which won't happen). He seems to be the character that everyone loves. I'm sure many of you remember when Farmer almost left Melbourne to return to Perth and Lyon was apparently the main figure in getting him back. I have no doubt that had Lyon had more influence with Melbourne at the time of his depature he may not have even left (Farmer).

In saying that, Judd won't be at Melbourne next year or ever, unless he makes it clear he only wants to play for us. I have a feeling the guy knows where his loyalty lies and it is killing him to say he wants to come home. I think it is possible he will come out and say he wants to play for us, and I don't think he would choose Carlton on Collingwood over us to be honest.

Lyon can choose what he wants to do. U people make me sick. He loves the club but he doesent have to involved in it for the rest of his life

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
