This is my wish list of players to fill holes in our side.

Who are F/A

(U)=Unrestricted

®=Restricted

BACK LINE: Harry O'brien®,Jordan Russell(U),Corey Enright(U),Sam Fisher®,Josh Drummond®

CENTER LINE: Daniel Kerr(U),Luke Hodge(U).Chris Knights(U),Leigh Montagna(U),Brendon Goddard®,Brent Stanton®Shannon Byrnes(U)

FORWARD LINE:Travis Cloke®,Angus Monfries®,Steve Johnson(U),Paul Chapman(U)(U)Justin Koschitzke(U)Quinten Lynch(U)

I know some of these guys will be hard to get but as you can see there is some real talent there and i get the feeling Mark Neeld will go hard to get the players he wants.

The bottom line is money can talk. Just ask Tom

If we can get one guy from each line it would help us alot till our skinny kids grow.

Who do you guys like out of this lot?

    Would love several.

    I suspect the better ones will re-sign with their club, be hideously over-priced or only have one good year left in them.

    Having said that... Hodge and Chappy thanks.

    Disagree with most of your list. The vast majority are too old for our needs. A few just aren't worth the effort.

    While I can see the appeal of Cloke, he would be ruinously expensive and would more or less kill the career of Cook. I would prefer we stay clear of him and look at players who are a little more reasonably priced and who will help our midfield to function.

    Enright is a UFA, eh? Hmmmmm........

    I like the idea but what possibly has the MFC that will attract a FA from a club like Geelong?

    Not very fruitful, particularly when he is the son-in-law of the President.....

    Im sure you could see where I was coming from. He has been playing at a premiership dynasty for years and will go down as one of the greats (underated) of that era.

    3 flags, 2 b&f's, 4 time AA team member, I'm sure he would love to end his career where it started.

    A new challenge?

    A team on the up as Geelong is on the decline?

    Costa is the former president fwiw.

    Which team is on the up?! :lol:

    i dont think the cats will slip back as far as people think, a couple of years around the middle & then they'll be there abouts again. Got some good kids down there.

    I would love him, he has dash, great 1 on 1 and doesn’t turn it over. Boy wouldn’t he stand out!

    Very underrated, B&F in a premiership team and considering the players around him shows just how highly he is regarded.

    Unfortunately he strikes me as a one club player, best clubman type.

    Pick 47 in the draft too - What a return!

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      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.
