Was apparently mentioned on channel seven. Might beva smoke screen while we have a crack at sloane?

On SEN today, David King said he'd heard that Port were going to make a massive play for Walker ($1m a year over 3 years) to sign at the end of next year, when he, Sloane and Dangerfield are all out of contract.

I really doubt Walker would play for the other Adelaide club, it wouldn't be good for his career or his health I would suspect.

1m a year? Pfft! Let's double it!

We have the money to trump port, but given the state of our list we probably need to spend that cap space on getting 2-3 solid players to shore up our list.

Walker would be great, but we need more than big tex to turn this club around.

Tex's ol mate Bernie, reckons he would love the Melbourne lifestyle.

I wonder if lifestyle means more than $1m per year.

Don't know our current financial situation however I'd pay over a mil.

Would take the focus off Hogan in his first year and with Dawes there as well they would dominate.

Would love Big Tex he is one of my favourite players to watch and would assist Hogan's development. We need to be making plays for some big players, not sure how keen the Crows would be to let him walk with a year on his contract though and we still need to sort out our diabolical midfield.

Didn't hear it myself but was apparently mentioned on 3aw this morning that we are set to throw some big coin at the Texan.

Imagine the reaction from the crows fans.

Please let it be true.

So either King is accusing port of breaking the rules or he has proof.

When questioned he will say " it's a rumour".

If there is any truth to us going after Walker, even if we fail, it means Mitch Clark won't be playing with us (if he does make a comeback).

Not really, Clark is a great ruck option.

Walker's contracted to Adelaide to the end of 2015. How do we get him?

We would have to come up with an attractive trade deal. A player and a good draft pick?

Would he be a free agent next year?

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo.
