Good and fair trade IMO. Vince fills a need and it's a fair price to pay for that as well. Vince, Tyson, Michie and still Pick 9 to come as well. Has been a very good off season so far!

    Excellent. This trade actually excites me more than the Tyson one because we have guarenteed improvement and support in the midfield from Round 1 next year.

    Well done to the brains trust.

    this is awesome

    Vince is better than Sylvia

    Absolutely stoked. I thought all the action happened on the final day of trade period? lol

    So it's not the end of the world?

    Maybe it's lying in wait...

    A genuine mid to help in the middle. As disappointed as I was to lose Col, I have to admit this has worked out pretty bloody well.

    Coming of a season where he averaged 20.6 disposals, and kicked 13 goals 11 behinds in 21 games

    Mentioned on the AFL website in the Trade & Free Agency blog:

    "6:15pm: Senior journalist Peter Ryan has broken some trade news with Adelaide trading Bernie Vince to Melbourne for their compensation pick which is pick no. 23.

    Excellent news, but could be some disappointment in the Jones household. We won't be getting Zac Jones now. Well, unless he slips to pick 40 ...

    Unless we trade a player for a pick in the 20s. I found myself forgetting that there's a whole entire week still to go! Plenty could still happen.

    Isn't there a week to go for the trade period? We could yet do a trade to get a pick in the early 20s.

    Just so happy to be getting Vince. But just so disgusted about the Hawks CEO's statement about it all not being fair. As Pantaloons says, just picking up players

    from cellar dweller teams or teams that just can't quite get there - look at North and Port and Crows recently - as though they were entitled to them and no one else was. Narcissism.

    If we get a 21-25 pick for Sylvia....the AFL is Santa Claus and Christmas will come early this year for the Dees.

    Looks Like Santa Claus has delivered once again and I am so looking forward to Christmas :):cool:

    Two years of very good trading, hiring and drafting

    Viney at pick 26 (steal)

    Toumpass (went one place later than expected)

    Hogan (mini draft)

    Dawes (solid player)

    M Jones (impressive first season)

    Terlich(impressive first season)

    Tyson (a good get whilst keeping a first round pick)

    Minchie (highly rated by many clubs)

    Vince (better than Sylvia)

    Pick 9 (assurance for the future)

    Peter Jackson (thank you AFL)

    Paul Roos (thank you PJ)

    Stone (credentialed and proven assistant Improving most of the above)

    That's a turn around on 10 players in the right hands

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • NON-MFC: Round 14

      Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt? Follow all the non-Melbourne games here and join the conversation as the ladder continues to take shape.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
