    Greg Bentley has apparently been delisted

    What about Wall from Casey. Only 21 198cm key backman was in the VFL team of the year, won their B&F and was impressive in the televised game against Sandy earlier in the year.

    What about A Wall from Casey. 3m tall, not very mobile, poor leap, but tough as bricks. Not a great tackler, but he makes up for that with his great bumping skills. Has lightning reflexes. Handpass the ball to him and you'll get it back just as quickly. Never caught holding the ball. Can play in any position. Great endurance - never gets tired. A good prospect.

    Seriously, just pick up a kid and give him a chance. "Better the devil you know than the devil you don't" does not apply in the PSD.

    One could say that it would add structure and support to the team Chook

    If Tom Lonergan was delisted, he would be in contention. Hard to see him being delisted but you never know...

    Ferguson.

    I have a feeling that with a big pre-season in the gym, he'll be a player.

    As long as he hits the weights..but he'll have to be careful of Sylvia when backing up.

    Please use the specific thread to discuss Charlie Gardiner. Not that there is much to discuss.

    Ha, yeah sorry. Just feel there should be one place for all these names to go, rather than starting new threads for every delisted hack

    Given that the PSD has been totally emasculated as a result of the AFL's own new drafting and trading rules including allowing players to nominate for the National Draft who normally would have only been available previously in the PSD, the club should apply (along with West Coast) to have our priority selection at the start of the first round instead of at the start of the second.

    That would make the draft order for Melbourne 1, 3, 19 instead of 1, 17, 19 and West Coast 2, 4, 20 instead of 2, 18, 20. Not much of a change and I'm sure Andy Demetriou would be sympathetic to this proposal because he seems to be a person who believes in giving the lowly clubs a fair go.

    Departures by Club

    It's like all my Christmas' have come at once! We simply must get Sam Iles, or Bryce Campbell, Luke McEntree or Chris Schmidt.

    Who's this Weetra guy? Sounds awesome

    haha, he sure is a caring and sharing person Vlad, isnt he? Just look at the draw he handed us today as further proof of how highly he values us, as opposed to the Pies.

    Keep dreaming. But, this does prove the point that we should NOT use a pick in the PSD. Every player (probably 99%) nominated for the PSD will also be nominated for the ND, so if we're going to use one less pick in the ND to save to use in the PSD, we may as well just take the same player in the ND.

    Leigh Brown could be a handy short term (preseason draft) acquisition to bolster our forwardline for 2 years. Not sure of his age.

    We need to take the pressure off our youngsters, while our young forwards to be recruited develope their bodies confidance & game.

    • 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.
