I'm not sure what I'm allowed to cut and paste, but the thrust of it is that we're targetting Frost to replace Frawley, and he wants to come home. No mention at this early stage of what we'd offer.

I CAN'T BELIEVE WE GAVE AWAY GYSBERTS AND DOWNGRADED PICKS FOR THIS "PEDERSEN" GUY ...sorry, wrong year.

I used to think Demonland was a footy forum but now I realize it's more a comedy forum where footy is occasionally discussed - certainly it's a secondary consideration. Some time ago I started to rea

I don't understand how some posters think that St Kilda was playing poker and we blinked. What did St Kilda have to gain from that? Their position is not improved by forcing us to trade for Frost. Th

Just spoke to my original source who said that this Sam Frost trade will happen barring any left field offers. eg At the last minute Tyson Goldsacks' girlfriend(and her parents) has declared she wants to return to Adelaide and apparently he had agreed to stay at Collingwood but had NOT signed yet, so that deal is all up in the air all of a sudden. Will post some other stuff that was mentioned on the main trading thread

Stating the obvious I know but you'd imagine GWS will be looking to package Frost with a player to get their hands on pick 2/3.

They would have no interest in a 4th round draft pick for Frost given they wouldn't even use it on draft day.

Would also make sense that Toby Greene would be the one shopped given his off field issues and stand-off with the club when he got suspended.

Pick 3 for Greene, Frost and a 2nd round pick?

anyone seen him play?

I saw some GWS games this season but didnt notice him, which isnt a bad thing of course

Was taken pick. 1 in the Rookie Draft in 2011 I think.

Seen a bit of him. His brother is Jack from Collingwood.

Similar to McDonald. Very athletic and fit for his size and can play forward.

Doesn't have the greatest foot skills but has a lot of desire.

Overall good pick up for our backline.

Not sure they'd even use pick 57 in the draft?

Don't GWS and GC have to trim their list over the coming years?

Don't think they'd want to delist one of their many top 20 kids to use pick 57 in an ordinary draft.

They have to trim their list by 2 this year. If O'Rourke, Jaksch and Frost leave and they don't bring in replacements they will need a minimum of 4 picks at the draft. Considering they currently have (assuming Frawley compo) picks 4, 21 (end of 1st compo), pick 24 and 41, plus likely first rounders for Jaksch and O'Rourke they probably won't use it.

Doesn't mean they wouldn't do the trade though - they don't get anything, but they help the player get where he wants to.

Frost can be steak knives if we swap pick 3 for O'Rourke and Jaksch. A Win-Win all round!

People are stoked with Frost, but not happy with Lumumba. I don't get this place anymore, i think i need to go and join 'Ology or Big Footy. i'm done.

For the record, i am happy with both players.

Go over to that other thread and count how many posters are not happy with HL.

And then look at how many have since recanted, or pulled back from their unhappiness.

HL gets a lot of unwarranted nonsense thrown his way, he also gets some warranted nonsense...

Sit a poster down and smack them in the face and tell them HL is coming and they will be happy he is.

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
