If you want a laugh have a read of the Melbourne site and how they are talking up Moloney as the next great leader of men and how he will rip McLean in two when they next play Carlton. Classic stuff.

While Brent Maloney is making an impassioned speech about loyalty, and putting on an angry face about a player (McLean) leaving his club for a first-round draft pick (how DARE he!!!)
His club is desperately trying to convince Luke Ball to ditch his teammates, leave St Kilda in the lurch, and go to Melbourne for free in the preseason draft.
Hypocrisy doesn't even BEGIN to cover that.

Actions speak louder than words.
brent and melbourne would want to have a better season in 2010 than they did in 2009.
a lot of talk is coming out of MCG, sorry junction oval, no i mean't casey or wherever they are from.

Moloney was the player who left Geelong to get Ottens to the Cats.
Perhaps he is a tad bitter about playing for Melbourne and winning two spoons instead of two flags...

NOT MARIC!
How many goals did Garlett kick against you this year?
Yarran will be a better player than Garlett and Jurrah.
Melbourne's ruck division is Meesen, Jamar, Johnson and Spencer.

Moloney's whole family are mad MFC supporters and I can absolutely assure you that he was stoked to join the dees.
We're a couple of years behind you guys but I think we're going to catch up quicker than you all think.
No doubt Carlton and Melbourne have both timed their runs almost perfectly with the expanded comp. I reckon Melbourne would probably like to be one year more advanced than now due to the somewhat compromised draft this year.
Good luck to Brock, happy with pick 11 though.

that is absolutely adorable, cute, Brent Baloney tried to be intimidating

In theory Melbourne should get better over the next few years with all their early picks, but let's face it, Melbourne are terrible at developing young players.
Any young players that they have, where already good when they got to the club and haven't really got any better since. Sylvia, Jones, Bate and company are at the exact same level as when they arrived. Frawley and Grimes are probably two of the exceptions.

Oh, so they were the 6 people with 3 flags I saw masquerading as an AFL team cheersquad in Round 22 this year?
A second rate footballer, who came second in a best and fairest for a second tier football club...hence the playing no. 22.Who on Earth is Brent Moloney?
LOL be nice to see Moloney playing VFL in two years after getting delisted.
So much for the passion, he's a dud of highest proportions. At least Mclean can play football.

Nah I can see Melbourne's point of view with this one. It's never easy when one of your top players wants out and leaves to join another club. It's hardly surprising that there's some bitterness about it all over at the Dees.

It'll be interesting to watch Carlton next year.
Interesting that you point out our poor forward line. Coming from a club whose no. 1 forward targets will be Lachie Henderson, who is not much older than Watts; and Setanta O'hAilpin, who the less said about him, the better.
Speaking of CJ, how did he do this year?
Well done on getting Brock. Heard that Ratts may also be interested in Robbo.
Looking forward to Melbourne offloading Daniel Bell, Michael Newton and Paul Johnson to Carlton in next years trade week.

Carlton are the last team to criticise any player for lack of leadership qualities. Two years ago, nobody within the was good enough to captain Carlton, so they recruited an outsider and made him captain. Adding to that, when Carlton were bottoming out, who did they pick as captain? None other than Lance "who ate all the pies" Whitnall.

Is the 48 in your username your IQ???
You forgot to mention Jarrod Waite and Eddie Betts who will be key contributors this year as well as Murphy kicking his usual 30 odd plus goals from the middle the most from any pure midfielder in the comp this year and big Matty Kruezer floating forward and having a say.
You just keep dreaming about your tin rattling rabble that will be lucky to be around in 5 years time. I doubt you care much though as the slopes of Buller and Falls Creek seem so much more enticing than watching the rabble that is Melbourne trying to be competitive in a league that has gone past them. Now run along to your own board and talk up how good of a pick Jack Watts was and leave the Carlton talk to us.
True, its hard to bag someone you don't remember seeing play.

How surprising to see a FailDog supporter sticking up for the Demons...
Decades of disapointment and failing at everything so often go together and i am sure these 2 minnow clubs will be successfull in seeking solace in each other.

Not every club can get around the salary cap by putting their best players on their sponsor's payroll. Hopefully Hankook will pay the salaries of our first and second picks in years to come.
Eddie Betts is over-rated and will be found out now there is no Fevola to take the best defender. He'll have his spot taken by Chris Yarran. I didn't mention Jarrod Waite, I think it'll take him a while to get back to his best after a knee op. Much like David Schwarz back in the day.
We can look after ourselves. You just worry about how you're going to go next year with no real targets up forward. Maybe Judd will carry you to a premiership, much like he did at West Coast. Or maybe his and Chooka's injuries won't be able to hold up. Or you could just cheat your way to another premiership. Keep dreaming about your salary-cap breaching club with it's cheating price-fixing major sponsor.
In 5 years time, Scully, Trengove, Ball and Moloney will be shitting all over Judd, Murphy, McLean and Gibbs.
And if Melbourne are so bad, why were Carlton interested in Chris Johnson, who couldn't get a game for us?
