Has it been confirmed Green has signed with us? I hear that he has, but I am not 100% sure.

Can somebody confirm this please!

    Geelong will be after pace if they trade for an experienced player. Can't see them wanting Green.

    So........ what then, do you suppose we will get for an 'average half back flanker' in trade week ????

    BTW Green is far better than your 'average half back flanker'.

    Fair point. Altough my point is that a 28 year old Crawford is superior to a 27 Green and was never going to be traded by Hawthorn. Green has has a good year, no doubt, and thus his stocks have risen. This is a strong draft and I believe it would be a great decision to use one of our players to get another first round pick. Green plus another pick or a player such as Bell may get us that pick.

    So what if Crawford is a brownlow winning midfielder.

    Do you think Hawthorn kept Crawford on the list because of the brownlow medal he won 9 yrs ago ?

    No they kept him because he's a club champion and a great leader, not to mention at 28 one of the games elite runners with an engine as big as his heart. In your opinion Green might be better than an average HBF but he's not in the same realm as Shane Crawford at the same age. Take a look at yesterdays game for more proof of his worth. As for Green, as someone else alluded to - He goes missing when it really matters (along with Bruce, Wheatley and a few others who have finally been cut!) - please don't mention the 2000 finals as the end result was plain embarrasement for this club.

    You should have quit while you were behind. Anyone who suggests that throwing in Bell as the deal breaker to get a 1st round pick, has got no idea.

    why not

    bell is good. pace, attack on the footy- he just cant kick. maybe we should hang onto him- similar to a lot of hawks players

    I will, because 2000 was debut year for Bruce, Wheatley and Green. In the GF, Green got garotted just before 1/4 time and was hospitalised, Bruce didn't play - he was a late withdrawal, and Wheatley didn't play.

    So I suppose you're right, they went (were) missing. :lol::lol::lol::lol:

    any update on brad green situation?

    the reason melbourne were any good in 2000 is because of Green and Bruce's games in the finals leading up and throughout the year- added excitement and that rawness/willingness to the team

    i'm with you here mate, but im happy he signed up..yet again though, i reckon we would've easily got a top 20 pick for him. in a better side, green would be a v good player.

    Ive been thinking about it, there is a reason its taken this long for him to be signed.

    I reakon we talked to other clubs about trading him and no one was willing to offer a top 20 pick so we re-signed him.

    Mono - I highly doubt that Geelong would be able to fit him into their salay cap. Chapman is taking a paycut.

    Also, maybe Green's manager has been asking around, puting out feelers etc. Mind you, there has been no announcement by the MFC, so I doubt he is actually signed yet.

    And Davis, I've been thinking about the salary cap thing with the cats. Prismall is not signed yet, and they could trade for salary space. Plus, as I understand it, all the cats have been modest in their pay demands, so as to keep the side together. Green could easily ride along with that. They're a cert to play in the finals next year, and a good bet to make the GF again.

    Hell of an incentive. <_<

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
