Steve Lavell: The Brendan Fevola deal is done. He's heading to the Lions. Lachlan Henderson and pick No.12 to Carlton for Fevola and pick 27.

Hey, how did you know this before the rest of the media found out? :)

This is a stupiid suggestion.Why would we do this when we could have got Fevola, We have delisted Robertson, Wheatley & Whelan due to our youth policy and recruiting Bradshaw would be a slap in the face to us all.

lol easy does it tough guy!

Was just an idea...not gospel...

No issue my friend- however if one(Bradshaw ) failed a medical yesterday ,I'm sure you would agree we do not need that.

Sorry- may be I was a little over the top-

No worries mate.

I think the rumour of Bradshaw failing the physical was BS, they confirmed it on SEN.

I think he will be on move today and i think the Bulldogs would be crazy not to give it a go.

By silly people do you mean silly person, and by silly person do you mean Freak?

No offence to the very insightful poster The Oracle, but Freak is The Bizarro Oracle.

Everything he says will come to pass...backwards...or reversed...upside-down...inside-out...

You know where I'm going with this.

Adrian Anderson says: 3 new rules (trading rookies, trading picks only, using mediation) all used this year, so he's a happy chappy. 23 players moved this year.

Still against Free Agency because under current situations clubs get compensation for moving players. Says the current system allows for fairness.

Mediation is good for trade week.

Mediation is good for trade week.

Agree. Makes sense to bring in third parties when clubs come to a stalemate, especially when players really want to leave. According to Adrian Anderson, no mediation was called for in the Luke Ball dealings.

Rossy Lyon didn't want to trade.

Which rookie was traded?

Just ten minutes to go and nothing happening except for the Fevola deal.

What's the Oracle going to do tomorrow?

So much for the theory that the big trades that take a long time to finalise hold up a whole lot of smaller deals. The Fev to Brisbane trade was effectively the last to go through and there was time for lots more to go through.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
