Fantastic appointment. Just fantastic. Go Demons.

Caroll, Stone & Angwin

Most draft boards have us taking Carroll - Who's a good friend of Rivers. Always welcome additions that are left foot tidy kicks and go home factor somewhat less with a good friend at the club (See Brisbane Lions recent model).

Every single pre season, we kick off wearing the same NB gear from the season prior. I see they've provided fresh kits to GC & ST Kilda. Small matter but it's strange to me.

News is slow this time of year so I thought this could make an interesting thread. I'll start; Joel Smith is already a handy defender, particularly in 1 v 1's, and will develop into a really good lock down KPB

We shall see...

Port Melbourne looked a viable option at one point under PJ, but Barlett wants us in the heart of Melbourne, near the G and he will stop at nothing to ensure this happens during his tenure.

Love it!

Gawn on the Podcast said Aaron is professional as they come and it will be a big moment when he does debut for Casey and for the MFC.

Sam Fisher (Swan Districts) has spoken to the MFC Recruitment team.

The club has tried unsuccessfully to convince Cedric Cox that we like his talents and could guarantee him 2 years. Complicated situation with family in remote Halls Creek.

If you're so sure about your info, why are you so defensive? You don't have to prove anything to anyone on the forums, or even post it really.

I asked this question after seeing it on the forums and there was no interest in signing Brodie Smith & Josh Thomas.

My source within the club speaks so highly of this kid. Apparently his application to his rehab has been elite for his age. Given this is the only thing we can base him on, I think he's deserved of another year. I believe the club make this happen, even if it's as a rookie.

A handy back up and a strong contributor to culture. As much as footy's a business, Tmac did re-sign when there was genuine interest elsewhere and there is always at least something in that.

The theory that you have to of been a superstar of this position to coach it is a furphy.

Spot on mail

Is it the Toby McLean deal you are referring to?

Why would we need Narkle to fill Melksham's role when Melksham can fill it?

We aren't interested in Josh Thomas, I can assure you all of that.

The Anonymity of Sydney, for AFL Players, would suit Jesse. Now or never. I wish him well.

A fantastic decision. He will be played on merit, therefore impeding no ones development. Good football clubs have good people around.

Up in the air until Pert's review is delivered to the board. The talk is the writing is on the wall for Matthews & Plapp. Rooke is gone and the VFL coach will have no AFL based duties.

You don't need a whole lot of business acumen to assume the footy director position. You need FD acumen which you would assume a prominent former player, captain and then assistant coach would have.

Fact, I'm told. We are well in the running!
