What the hell are Hawthorn thinking offering him up for Burgoyne? He is a heart and soul player, in their best 22, has bleed, will bleed again, and makes people bleed, for the Brown and Gold.

I dont know contracts, or other situations, but im guessing he would be heart broken he is even been thrown up, would definitly offer Pick 34 and player (Miller, PJ, Buckley) to get him to Melbourne

He is one of those players you DONT even think of trading, the supporter backlash from hawks fans would be worse than he who shall not be named

    Could easily scuttle the entire deal.

    Will cause friction within the club as well as outside.

    Brown won't agree to the trade anyway IMO, so really I see it only as a lose-lose for the Hawks.

    A very odd move.

    Brown's response was heard by his neighbours...

    "NOT HAPPY JAN!"

    Will be interesting to see how this pans out.

    Whats happened to this game?

    It really just is a business these days.

    I would be LIVID if I was a dorks supporter.

    Madness, this deal would be a big win for port. Imagine the scrutiny on the hawks board if burgyorne dosn't make it on the track next year after giving up pick 9 and BROWN.

    Hard men win games on grandfinal day not soft and broken midfielders

    First, might not be true.

    Second, I would be shocked if Hawks didn't demand total secrecy on the proposal if true. Given that the secrecy has been breached, I wouldn't be surprised if they pulled out on that "deal" and denied it was ever an option

    bad move there by hawks, would be like us offering Moloney +pick 11 for Burgs

    If true who b left to fall in PSD.Lake signed 4 yr deal today

    I would have thought so too. Especially as the "secrecy" seems to have been breached from the Adelaide end.

    Unless they're trying to exert leverage on Port to settle for McGlynn, by demonstrating to them the difficulty they will have in giving up one of their "heart & soul" players for Burgoyne.

    Does anyone know what Campbell Browns contract status is?

    Its a complete meat market this year.

    Well Brown has 1 year left on his current contract so he wouldnt fall through anyway.

    I dont think anyone will fall through to the PSD that Melb would have a serious look at.

    Yeah, well Hawthorn also wants to trade Campbell Brown; Alistair Clarkson that little infected weasel is their coach; and Jeff Kennet the world's least funny clown is their president, so you can't really say they have sound judgement.

    I love trade week!

    From a purely football point of view - Brown + pick 9 for Burgoyne is a fair deal. Brown is a decent player, but not the champion that Hawthorn fans make him out to be.

    But probably not worth it given the effects on the supporter base and club morale. I've already heard quite a few supporters ringing up SEN threatening to cancel their memberships if it goes ahead

    DEAL has been agreed on.......

    all that needs to happen is convincing BROWN

    fact!!!

    It's a cruel, cruel world ...

  • Quote

    Agree old. I just brought up the Woewodin point with a friend.

    Supporters blinded by their love of a player.

    Brown is an overrated thug - but he's loved by supporters because of his heart-on-his-sleeve attitude.

    He's not that good a footballer.

    I still don't think he'll agree to the deal, which throws a massive spanner in the works - which will be very enjoyable to watch.

    I can't see him agreeing.

    Deal far from done.

    I CAN!!!!!!!

    Proud man being shopped around - he wont go back!!!!

    Good, I was beginning to think I was the only one that thought that way. I also agree there'll be some massive blowback from Hawks supporters. They can join the Fev supporters at Princess Park :lol:

    • 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.
