:o Rodan to Dees..Almost done:

www.afl.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/208/newsid/150234/default.aspx

What paper work? If he's delisted doesn't he need to be picked up in the PSD?

Anyway I'm not as down in the dumps about him as most people, will cost nothin', as long as he doesn't keep Blease out of the side I can live with it.

Are we thinking:

Gysberts to Port

Jacobs to North

Pedersen & Pick 39 to Melbourne

Use Pick 39 on Ray???

For yet another rumor that I've heard today:

Gysberts to Essendon

Pears & Cripps (Saints) to West Coast

Brown & Pick 41 to St Kilda

Ray to Melbourne

Gys hasn't failed yet, he had an injury riddled year and still did quite well in the VFL upon his return.

That is the reverse of the Martin deal and if you wanted to get rid of Gys you would do it. We get Ray and Pedersen for Gys.

Then we could trade Martin and 49 to Lions for 33 and keep 33.

He did get it right, he wants to trade Tom.

On Trade Radio a Liam Pickering (Player Agent) has just said that North was also interested in Rodan. Am I alone in feeling happy about this giving they're being unreasonable with their demands for pedersen???

alos apparently we are talking to port about Jacobs

Good out of contract pick up in PSD

I was thinking if Eagles want Morton can we try and get a straight swap for Ash Smith. Victorian boy might be happy to come home.

You need to read a couple of the other threads. This was a troll exercise that caught Jay CLark...

What the hell are we doing? Byrnes, Rodan, Dawes on half a mill a year!! Looking at a very average outside player in Ray, a VFL swingman, and Ben Warren!

Welcome to trading for beginners.

We've got a new regime making the decisions. Let's assume a group of professionals know what they are doing until it's proven otherwise. After all, their future depends on them getting things right (unlike us posters).

Like how we assumed the group of professionals of the last 5 year would work and knew what they were doing?

I don't think we have to assume they're doing whats needed, as this infers we're all worried about the direction, of getting cheap mature players onto our list, as we jettison some young ones who haven't put in.

I think there are many here who are happy we are grabbing some mature types who can take the wheel & charge a new direction, as our kids relearn they're ways.

I, for one am happy with this sudden change, But would have liked to have had P13 or P20 still available for the draft. But all in all, am relieved on our direction so far.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 19th February 2025

    Demonlander The Analyser was the sole Trackwatcher out at Casey Fields today to bring you the following observations from this mornings preseason training session. Training  was at Casey today.

I think Kolt looks like he’s im

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    MATCH SIM: Friday 7th February 2025

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    TRAINING: Wednesday 5th February 2025

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
