    We must have at least $1.7m in the salary cap with Frawley and Clark both gone. We were already only paying the minimum cap.

    Pretty sure the bold drafting from the Lions has been a result of throwing around some big ticket contracts and seeing what bites. About time we do the same. Put a few $550k 4 year contracts under their noses and we'll see how much they want to stay in western Sydney.

    I'd be putting 650k five year deal under Treloar's nose...

    If Adelaide were even to entertain a trade, the way the EBA structured with the AFLPA and the AFL the player has to agree to the trade also. And why would Dangerfield agree to come to Melbourne over Geelong or Hawthorn? He had the option to go Geelong 3 or 4 years ago on a huge contract when he first came out of contract and knocked them back to resign with Adelaide. And he's a Geelong Falcons product. Could have been a premiership player already if he wanted to come back to Vic.

    Won't be going anywhere.

    Well Adelaide weren't exactly the worst side 3 or 4 years ago

    Is there any more juicy and inaccurate Facebook rumours out there?

    You gotta wonder if this sudden change of heart about taking picks 2 and 3 to the draft is because the Saints told us they're taking McCartin?

    Maybe we are warming to McCartin? I like Dawesy, don't get me wrong, but perhaps they've realised that he's just not that good?

    Sounds like an immature passing comment, but really, Hogan and McCartin would set up our attack for the next decade with two guys that have the potential to be 50+ goal per year forwards.

    Dawes will never be that type of player. Would be a good enforcer whilst the young blokes learn the craft though.

    Wonder if Taylor prefers Wright or McCartin...

    Agreed, or we have got wind that the GWS & Saints trade won't happen now and we already knew the Saints would take McCartin if the kept the #1 pick

    McCartin seems the safer bet, but Wright has the potential to fit our structure better as he can play ruck, too. Think Kurt Tippett.

    McCartin is the more typical power forward in the Hogan/Dawes mould.

    Personally wouldn't mind either, Wright is a better kick and is quick for a big bloke, but there's question marks over his competitiveness/hardness.

    Well Mahoney did come out and say it after the Griffen story broke, so the club must have reconsidered their options.

    GWS won't be able to get pick 1 if they give pick 4 to the Bulldogs for Griffen.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
