You can use this on the board if you want.

Pies will over pick 14 and a way to get Seaby to Sydney for Darren Jolly.

Sydney will offer their 3rd rounder for hawthorns Josh Kennedy.

Luke Ball and Matt Maguire appear destined for Essendon.

McGlynn may be at Hawthorn.

Port Adelaide are into Shaun Hampson big time.

Steve Salopek is up for trade. Carlton keen.

Pies have cooled on Fev as the playing group don't want him.

Staker could end up at Collingwood or Brisbane.

Peake is off to St. Kilda.

Gibson, Burgoyne and Drum should get to Hawthorn.

Mitch Thorp could end up at the roos or port.

Lovett to Brisbane seems destined to happen.

Geelong looking to trade Gamble.

Just some of the stuff i have heard :)

With all the trades that Hawthown is rumoured to be involved in it is

rediculous to expect their going to be able to get them all across the line.

Their salary cap would be tighter than an ants clacker.

I reckon they'll be extremely lucky if they get both Gibson and Burgoyne over the line.

i agree, but apparently they are paying Gibo more than what the Roo's are but its still nothing

Three bean salad, he's on the table, but no ones interested.

Collingw&%$ has delisted John Bennell (relative of Jamie).

Non-identical twin brother I believe? Could've made that up though.

He's 174cms to Jamie's 179 making him tiny by AFL footballer standards. You generally need to be something pretty special to survive at that size.

He looked bigger than that when playing in the VFL finals. Kicked a few nice goals against us. I thought he was rookied and was guaranteed 2 years. Anyway, on what I have seen of him in a few games, I can understand the decision to delist.

Would be keen on Salopek. He is a Narre boy, would like to see him come home and play for the dees. Have not heard any concrete sources out here that suggest he is on the move. I will keep my ears open around the traps and see what I can find out.

ADELAIDE

Although Victorian duo Chris Knights and Richard Douglas have attracted interest from Melbourne-based clubs, the Crows insist they won't be returning home. Recruiting manager Matt Rendell believes Adelaide's best team doesn't have too many gaping holes in it, which means the Crows are likely to be a quiet player in what looms as a busy trade week.

BRISBANE LIONS

Richmond defender Andrew Raines looks set to join, with the Tigers likely to receive a third-round pick. Bomber speedster Andrew Lovett has visited the club, although coach Michael Voss says there are no guarantees. West Coast's Brent Staker is in the mix, with Bradd Dalziell potentially heading back west. Reports have also suggested Joel Macdonald could be on the move. And could the Lions be Brendan Fevola's new home?

CARLTON

All eyes will be on the Blues this week as they attempt to trade Fevola. Several clubs have already ruled out 'Fev'. Now it's a case of who is prepared to claim this year's Coleman Medallist? Will it be the Lions, Magpies or Swans or will he remain a Blue? Carlton has already been busy in pre-trade activities, all but securing Melbourne midfielder Brock McLean for pick No.11 via an in principle agreement.

COLLINGWOOD

Not surprisingly, the Magpies were quickly linked with Fevola once news broke of Carlton's desire to trade him. Media reports have suggested president Eddie McGuire is keen to lure to Fevola to the Lexus Centre and recruiting manager Derek Hine has not ruled out the possibility. Darren Jolly is also understood to be keen to return to Victoria, with the Pies believed to be interested.

ESSENDON

Port Adelaide dynamo Shaun Burgoyne is on the move and although his preferred destination is Hawthorn, the Bombers remain a player in trying to secure his services. Lovett has already signaled his intentions to move on from Windy Hill, but will he become a Lion? He has also been linked to Fremantle. Reports have also suggested the Dons will have a crack at former St Kilda captain Luke Ball.

FREMANTLE

Coach Mark Harvey has already confirmed Brett Peake and Marcus Drum are set to move on. Peake has been strongly linked with St Kilda, with Drum attracting interest from Hawthorn and Geelong. Despite strong interest from Victorian clubs, Fremantle remains adamant forward-turned-defender Chris Tarrant will serve out the final year of his contract in 2010, before any thoughts of returning home.

GEELONG

Recruiting manager Stephen Wells has already said that keeping the 2009 premiership list together will be the club's greatest challenge, due to Total Player Payments (TPP) restraints. Whether that forces the club to move on some players during trade week remains to be seen. Mathew Stokes is one player that has attracted interest from West Coast. Drum is in the mix to join the Cats.

HAWTHORN

Looks set to be a major player this week with Burgoyne and Josh Gibson hot on the Hawthorn radar. Burgoyne and Gibson have stated their intentions to play with the Hawks, but how those deals will occur remains intriguing. Port Adelaide is eyeing off Jordan Lewis or Grant Birchall, but it seems unlikely the premiership duo will depart. North Melbourne may opt for picks in return for Gibson.

MELBOURNE

The Demons announced in grand final week it had secured pick No.11 for McLean, although officially that deal still needs to occur. Carlton list manager Steven Icke has indicated a little more may need to be added to that deal. The Demons will also monitor Burgoyne, but acquiring additional picks will again form a focus for the youth-driven red and blue.

NORTH MELBOURNE

New coach Brad Scott has already made his intentions clear on Gibson, saying he will be moved on, as he no longer wants to be part of the club. It appears Gibson will become a Hawk during the week. Head of football Donald McDonald has confirmed the Roos will try to help Sam Power, Daniel Harris and Matt Riggio find new homes. At this stage the trio has not been strongly linked with rival clubs.

PORT ADELAIDE

With Burgoyne set to move on from Alberton, trying to nut out a deal with Hawthorn, Essendon or Melbourne – or possibly even St Kilda – remains the challenge. The front-runner remains Hawthorn. Coach Mark Williams wants Lewis, but it's unlikely the Hawks will release him. With the retirement of ruckman Brendon Lade, the Power is expected to make a play for Melbourne's Mark Jamar or Carlton's Shaun Hampson.

RICHMOND

It will be interesting to see how involved Richmond becomes in trade week. It hasn't been heavily mooted with players, although the Tigers look set to release Raines to the Lions for a third-round selection (No.44). Speculation mounted before the end of the season that Jordan McMahon could be moved on to St Kilda. Shane Tuck will also be one to monitor this week, with his future unclear.

ST KILDA

This year's runner-up should again be active in trade week, having been one of the more successful clubs with this form of recruiting in recent times. The Saints are believed to be making a play for Burgoyne, with Ball a possible trade option. Peake is favoured to join the Saints from Freo and it is understood Fevola has nominated St Kilda as one of his preferred destinations. Will the Saints be the ones to take him on?

SYDNEY SWANS

Like the Saints, the Swans have been one of the most successful clubs in trade week in recent years. Again, the red and white will be right in the thick of the action. West Coast ruckman Mark Seaby looks set to move to the harbour city, although the Swans could lose Darren Jolly back to Victoria. Amon Buchanan is also reportedly on the move. Many have mooted Fevola for the Swans, but the club says it's unlikely.

WEST COAST EAGLES

Seaby looks destined for the Swans, although it is not clear what West Coast will receive in return at this stage. Brent Staker has stated his intentions to move on, with the Lions right in the mix for his services. In return, it could acquire Western Australian Dalziell, who is attracting interest from West Coast. Victorian Matt Spangher has also signaled his intentions to return home, although the club is keen for him to remain.

WESTERN BULLDOGS

The Dogs have already declared they want departed Swan Barry Hall to improve their key forward stocks. Hall also wants to join the red, white and blue. Coach Rodney Eade says Hall remains the priority ahead of Fevola. Andrejs Everitt has also attracted interest from rival clubs, but Eade says the versatile tall will remain at Whitten Oval. Everitt is contracted for another two years.

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo
