Just to state the bleeding obvious, if Danger had agreed to terms what on earth would we be waiting for? Friday? Why? And why would we bother running a PR campaign throughout trade week offering our best picks for trade if that player had signaled his interest to join us?

Just stating the obvious I guess but this trade seems so very, very unlikely.

One way of dropping a line while we wait for some draft action.

perhaps we're just not using the right bait ?

New coach trying to talk him around onto a new contract @ AFC ?

Bit hard if Danger is in Victoria unless a phone conversation is enough nowadays.

Either way he's starting with a brand new coaching group at the start of 2015. A premiership coach and his former captain looks more appealing on paper at least.

I see no Demon is in the International Rules team just announced, so no danger of injuries. Unless.........

Australian squad: Grant Birchall, Travis Boak, Luke Breust, Patrick Dangerfield, Dustin Fletcher, Nat Fyfe, Brendon Goddard, Robbie Gray, Brent Harvey, Luke Hodge, Kieren Jack, Steve Johnson, Jarrad McVeigh, Sam Mitchell, Leigh Montagna, Nic Naitanui, Nick Riewoldt, Tom Rockliff, Joel Selwood, Brodie Smith, Nick Smith, Harry Taylor, Jobe Watson, Chad Wingard.

Because Danger is fishing at Mogg's Creek until late on Friday and is out of contact until then ... :blink::blink:

I refrained from checking it for a few days and then saw the explosion of posts, so thought it might be time to check again.

I feel dumber for having done so.

Yeah, it's a red herring.

Boom-tish!

Firstly - I don't think he has agreed to anything

But you do understand that because he is not a free agent nominating a club means jacksh1t. We have to satisfy Adelaide to get him out. Ryder has nominated Port and Essendon have said - fine - give us 3 top ten draft picks and Kochy's first born or he goes nowhere. This is a special case because Essendon players may take their club to court if they don't allow them trade out. But Stevens from Port to Collingwood was another one who nominated when he was becoming out of contract but Port played hard ball and threw him into the PSD and he ended up at Carlton.

Stating you want to go somewhere unless you are a free agent is nothing more than a players request for you to deal with a club and hopefully get a trade done - it guarantees nothing.

Except any two-bit player that is in his first year thinks it his God given right to nominate the club of their choice. And strangely enough they mostly get there...

Who needs free agency....

I imagine the bummers playing brave hardball over Ryder, maybe because they're worried about a player avalanche.

So much carp to trawl through

Come on be original!

What a disappointing thread this is. :P Wake me up when Dangerfield signs. ;)

LUNAR ECLIPSE AROUND 9:30

Every good fisherman knows that the best fishing days are during a fullish moon. And around lunar eclipse on a full moon makes for very auspicious fishing.

Danger was reported to have said that if he can catch a massive 2kg plus salmon right on 9.30 and the lunar eclipse he will join us.

The dees would really scale new heights if we got Dangerfield

It would really re-jigg our list

It would be in line with Gill M's equalisation strategies.

Stop. Next fish pun gets the thread closed. It was funny for the first 5 pages, if I'm generous.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie
