    Few deals done. Think we will have Hogan tomorrow or Wednesday, the way Harrington was gushing about him. If we can get pick 20 back in the deal I can see the Dawes deal being done for that quickly, so Pies can move on. Eddie is referring to him as a past player already. He seems happy to come to us, unlike Wellingham and Caddy.

    It's time for T$ closure. It's time for JV to smash him a good one next year, and we can all laugh and move on having dodged the biggest bullet of all time.

    Amen. You know I can't mention him, but I was thinking, how funny would it be, with Whitfield and Toumpas and others added to the GWS list, if he can't make the side. $1M a year to play in the local seconds.

    Would be funnier if we poached Whitfield.

    Oh the laughs!

    Well after all the dust settles after the trading, the drafting and the trimming I'm not sure I'll recognize our team.

    Don't think I've look so forward to the 1st round so much for a long long long time.:)

    I think your memory is failing bb

    Seem to remember great excitment after 2010 season and drafting.

    Then again last year after Neeld was appointed.

    Both ended in disaster.

    Now I will admit this year does look way better than this time last year because we are changing some of the cattle this year.

    So I hope 2013 shows a small amount of improvement.

    Closure? I know what you're saying, but 4 and 13 haven't been finalised yet in terms of their use.

    I only thought I was excited those other times as it was obviously a false illusion !!! Lol

    This time as you surmise, real change combined with an injection of meaningful acquisitions = some real chance at a competitive team.

    Along the lines of " you -u----- idiot."

    Best I try and stay away.

    I believe that part of the deal finalised today for Hogan and Barry was that Jack Viney must cease and desist from any attempt at tackling, body slams or other violent attacks on the little mongrel until the end of the 2014 season.

    Nice to have you aboard Chelly

    But there is something you need to know.

    That person you mention ( not J Viney )

    is not to be mentioned on this thread.

    It is a ------ free zone.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
