Are we now wanting someone to take Meesen/Newton to have a possible rookie of one of these or Mitch Thorp? Do Hawks have an extra spot?

    The ND is over and Newton and Meesen remain.

    I think it's time we accepted we're stuck with them and move on. Our list is Joel Macdonald shy of being final for 2010.

    Correct McDonald is the only other one we'll be adding to the list. Unfortunately what we know (Meesen, Newts, other rookies) are no where near as exciting as potential draftees like Panos and family related players like Grimes but we must move on.

    No Nasher there is still hope I believe.

    Newts or Meesen could be still picked up in the PSD or in the Rookie by someone else.

    Just don't hold your breathe though.

    I think Hawthorn are thinking of picking a ruckman as a mature age rookie but i think we should not be greedy and accept them as rookies. I'm thankful this was allowed to happen and we could take a punt on Gawn and Fitzpatrick.

    I would LOVE if people would watch players play before claiming that you would LOVE them to be at the club.

    And Ah Chee is too young isn't he?

    I'm still not sold on Macdonald.

    Anyone in favor of the golden "Thanks but no-thanks" handshake for Meesen and Newton? We will give you a years salary NOT to be rookie listed. Gives us two picks to rookie someone worth rookie listing. Not going to happen, but they have to realize that they will not be on the list next season anyway.

    Some great rookie options available with Grimes, Daw, Panos, and Patrick. Meesen and Newton have plenty of footy left, but for a rebuilding club we need guys who have a higher ceiling on the off chance we can unearth something special.

    These are all KPP's that we should target in the Rookie Draft. Personally, i think that there is absolutely no use redrafting Meesen as we have just drafted two ruckmen in Gawn and Fitzpatrick. All these KPP's were expected to be drafted so imo the Dees should take a gamble on one of them.

    I'm hoping that all delisted players have to pass through the preseason draft before the rookie draft.

    Maybe one or both may get taken prior to the rookie draft. I don't know which teams have list space available for the preseason draftees.

    This surely would be our only hope to take fresh rookies.

    • 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.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
