I noticed that on the website DEMONOLOGY that they have renamed their "Scully countdown clock" to the "Scully/Trengove countdown clock".

I was a big critic of March since he took over as president
Have come round a bit recently and defended him this season despite plenty of ferals turning on him as their next target since Wallace left.
Now he goes out and does something completely stupid again and I wonder why I bother defending him.

Just shut up you idiot

i dont know if he made those comments or not..but even if he did..it is not rocket science to say what he said....crickey...

who we pick will not influence Melbourne one iota...they will pick whoever they want....we will pick the next best is what he is saying....

some posters on here are overly analytical and critical....

I am pleased with this news.

Trengrove or Martin or Scully. As long as we have one of these.

Yep, relax. Its not the such a big deal - we take what evers left. March only said the bleeding obvious that doesnt change anything and puts the pressure back on Melbourne if anything as it puts the ball back in their court.
Now the year we said we would take Tambling = disaster, as it allowed Hawthorn to take Roughhead knowing Frankilin would be there.

Port tried and trade #8 + #9 for #2

Sydney #6 + #14 for #3

this would say that the best few kids are ahead of the rest

March is just saying that we rate Martin, Trengrove in this group and will draft them. Nothing wrong with this.

WP your missing the point no preseident should ever declare his/her hand before the draft. Its unprofessional practise.

I understand the point daniel but he isn't the first and he wont be the last. Go back to when the Doggies drafted Cooney and you may find Smorgan did the same thing

In the overall scheme of things I don't think it's the end of the world...

Should he have done it? Nope but he did and thats that  :thumbsup
No you're right WP it's not the end of the world and for all we know the Club may very well do the opposite to what March says publicly as we did with Cousins  :wallywink ;D. However, you would've thought he would've learnt from last year not to comment at all about our recruiting. A straight bat reply of "our footy department will be making that decision and I have great confidence in them and the resources they have had at their disposal to land us a quality young footballer" would've sufficed.

It's still unprofessional but the Bulldogs had pick 1 when Smorgan said that and Cooney was the clear No.1 that year. For March to say only two names when we have pick 3 wasn't too bright. Can we leave the Club's public comments to Benny Gale in future. March acts too much like an average supporter in the outer in front of the media.

If those two names are gone, and at #3 we get Scully I do not think March will lose sleep.

After his gaff the other morning in his interview with KB when he said Tucky was the one who asked to be traded when this wasnt' the case do you really think that's a good idea
