And what, heās going to get that at Melbourne? Im wondering what May is actually thinking. He left a rabble thinking he was joining a premiership bound team. He must be kicking himself.

Saty. I admire your red and blue blood through-and-through attitude, but a guy is allowed to express an opinion without it being construed as a knock (ānegativityā) on every player on our list, surely.

What to do with Nathan Jones
If we review two players in similar stages of their careers at MFC, Jones and Lewis, and compare how we are reacting to the finish, or potential finish , to their careers, we appear to have different standards. Lewis is a 4 time premiership player who has played over 300 games, an all Australian, whose skills and football brain have always been well above those of Jones - and still are. Jones has been a heart and soul player for us through many bleak years. He has earned our respect and gratitude. However, while he still bleeds red and blue, his skill set is now second rate, if we are being honest. Lewis, a large number of us here has said he should stay at Casey, and not play in the ones again. Jones, a large number here are saying we should keep him on to play 300 games - at least one and a half seasons away. Naturally there is a lot more love for Jones than Lewis - one is Melbournes heart and the other is an outsider. But perhaps we need to take a tough leaf out of Clarksonās book, and take the emotion out of any decision regarding Jones, and do whatās best for the teams development - when the time comes.

PREGAME: Rd 12 vs Collingwood
Best team weāve put onto the park all season and you still complain. Just once Iād like to read something positive from you Picket - and not that you are āpositiveā that Oscar will be back in the ones next week.

POSTGAME: Rd 11 vs Adelaide
I did say players from our current team - and I donāt believe Lewis or Salem weāre playing.

If you had to choose one player in our current team to take that last kick at goal, I would have chosen Sam.

POSTGAME: Rd 11 vs Adelaide
When Sam took that final mark last night, he knew the state of the game and would have been(censored) himself. I would have expected our ā leadersā to have walked back with him and calmed him down. But that did not happen and we know the result. As soon as he took the mark Viney patted him on the head and walked away, Oliver did the same. Jones was nowhere in sight and didnt make the effort to go to him. we lack leadership on the field.

PREGAME: Rd 10 vs GWS Giants
Agree with you LH - particularly about adding strings to his bow - a full tank would be a good start. Preuss would have known the score when he crossed - he couldnāt get a gig at North, so no reason to expect heād get one at the club with the best ruckman in the league - unless circumstances warranted it, or unless Max was injured.

Demons Grand Plan for Yarra Park Training HQ
Yarra Park was placed on the Victorian Heritage registry in 2010 - with special emphasis on the layout and the tree planting - with an emphasis that this should not be altered. As no oval of a size suitable for our training could be provided in the Park without removing historic pathways and trees; and as the proposed 6 storey development proposed over the rail line would effectively block existing views into the park, good luck with trying to get anything approved within the park. I just donāt believe it would happen. Hence my thoughts on the area covered by Goshs Paddock Ovals 1 and 2. None of the above restrictions would apply.
