Assuming there is a possibility that Rivers is out what is the deal with Richmond's Grimes? I ask because the brothers and whole family are MAD Melbourne tragics and I wonder whether a trade could be possible??

I am Jack's sponsor and I bounced it off him casually at a function. He said it would be great to have his brother with the Dees but couldn't see it happening.

I'd like to think so, as I wanted us to take the punt on him in the draft. I thought back then that we would be going thru the restructure of our defence back before he came into draft contention.

He seems the honest type to build upon. I doubt the Tiges would want to deal now.

Seriously can't believe the amount of negativity there was towards the option of Drafting young Dylan a couple of years back - there were howls of he's no good he's the dud little brother and we're sick of getting the NQR brother, skip forward 2 years and now people want him badly, oh and similar garbage was touted about Butcher and now we want him... I can't keep up with all changeing of minds

Richmond will not let him go, period. He has been excellent for them this year and will be a gun for them.

Should be keeping an eye on the younger ones though, good footballing pedigree! Did they all follow the Dees? (Oh yes I'm opening that can of worms!)

I was also disappointed when we let him go to Richmond late in the draft. Alwyn and Aaron Davey would have been better players in the same team too.

Never understood why we let Grimes and Davey go elsewhere.

Just remind us all again (before I slash what is left of my wrists yet again) just where did Dylan go in the draft and what superstar did we pick before him?

All the boys are good footballers.

In fact the younger ones are better than the older ones.

So just imagine how good number 5 will be in 6 years.

Fits the criteria of 'driven to be the best football he can be'.

Would be a useful addition, in practical terms.

I'd the thrilled if we got him, and surely with the sheer volume of movement out of our club, whether with handshakes or arse-kickings on the way out, we could find an equivalent offer for Richmond?

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
