Is anyone else half expecting some crap journalist to now come out with an article that Melbourne are targeting Leigh Montagna (LM)???

I'd moderate your excitement. GNF was way off the mark with Clark. My experience of trade week is much is discussed, little happens.

BTW, I love the speculation and rumours.

From what I gather, GNF claimed MC was on a training regime devised by Melbourne FC fitness staff and then (later on) blindsided the club on the back of his doctors' advice.

From what I've seen reported in the media and statements from different clubs, that seems fairly close to the mark.

Anyway, there must be some serious talent at play here. I'd have Nathan Jones as one of the best 30 players in the competition so the two A-graders in question must be bloody good. I'm talking Dangerfield, Beams good. Not Shiel.

Dan Hannebery, maybe?

Funny you mention Hannebery.

I heard last year that this was his last at the swans and wanted a move to VIC. Not sure if he's still unhappy up there or not and hadn't triggered my mind until you just mentioned it.

I just wonder if he still wants to.

Hahahahahahahahahaha! Nothing to add but gee this site is good for a laugh! Will stand by what I have said in earlier posts though. Let the games begin!

Way of the mark? He was spot on but MC blindsided him.

As I said a massive game of chess. The end results are far certain.

Our likely trade partner comes in black and white but is not a little bird.

Damn why did I have to drink this afternoon. I have no idea what this cryptic clue means.

Port?

I'm too old for this level of stress. Heart is gonna give up unless something happens soon.

No names and no teams! ! No leaks ffs. Would hate for a leak in here bring down a deal with some [censored] reporter putting it on the front page on Tues and everyone gets cold feet.

If it is Port, are we potentially dipping into the Ryder trade and giving Essendon the pick they want, whilst prying loose a player from the Power?

Think harder!!!!!

Is that directed at the Port assumption or my suggestion of Wines?

God damn it GNF, I love you but you are killing me

Posted

Even though I said Port, I don't really see why they would give up an A grade mid.

Swans can either be white or black, and are a large bird.

Do I win a prize?

I was just thinking this.

Hannebery?

Either Dane Swan

Or Phil Ostrich

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
