Out of contract, PSD pick for sure!

Is this possible?

I assume the PSD draft order is the same as Nab AFL draft order. If this is possible we could offer him money that GC couldn't and pick him up with pick 1-3 of PSD. But he would probably be hated for it by GC fans if he left for nothing.

In any case get it done Melboune - he is the perfect age bracket and has proven potential

Get him in the red and blue. The Prestia family is diehard Demons since the 60s. No excuses.

Their fan base will only grow (while ours shrinks)

I don't think many high draft picks would just walk out on their club for nothing - sounds like something that would happen to us though

Pass on that one big time, but we could repatriate all our Queenslanders.

Tell you what, I'd almost go Prestia for TMac, straight swap.

It's enough for people to be suggesting Dion Prestia... but to say Shiel as well??

If Prestia's family have some ties at the club there's a tenuous link but why the hell would Shiel want to come to us (over ANY of the other 17 clubs) and why would GWS let him go?

I know we need a good news story / hope at the moment but this is ridiculous - we're only setting ourselves up to be disappointed. I'm not saying it's not worth trying but let's not get carried away!

With a name like yours, you are quite the contrarian! ;)

Why would he, Neeld has just said we are 5 years away. Way to attract players.

Yep, not a great tactic in terms of recruiting.

How the hell are we supposed to keep players like Chip and Garland when Neeld is spouting crap like that? I know it is probably true but he should have just kept his mouth shut.

Get a decent proven coach which will happen at the end of the season. I know that Prestia was linked to Essendon on draft night with Atley but Heppell drifted and obviously we are happy at that.

If you could get a deal done and doesn't cost too much Melbourne should jump at it. Just remember Essendon wanted Caddy and they went to AFL mediation and nothing happened. I think for memory we offered a draft pick and Pears or Hooker and they wanted Hurley.

Hardly worth noting now because so much has changed but Neeld was able to convince Clark to join the MFC when home-sick with an offer from his home town club.

Prestia looks a smart player.

imagine Prestia reading the news and seeing that Neeld wants 5 years to build a competitive team

you think hes going to come here now?

Prestia, Thomas and so on, the players we desperately need to avoid 5 more years of torture, as well as Toumpas, Kent, Matt jones, Terlich thinking maybe they were better off in the VFL.

    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
