    As with a number of others, I don't really feel for the Swans who have been abusinig the system for years (see Mr Heeney). I do however think that this is yet another idiotic, ill-conceived declaration from an institution which has a long and glorious history of making idiotic ill-conceived decisions which rarely achieve what they want and often create more problems than they solve. Once again they are showing the world just how ameteur an organisation the AFL really is.

    If we want Mitchell and have been in talks with him, does that now mean that a trade is not allowed to happen with Sydney?

    how I read this is that now they cant draft players , they can still trade them for HIGH draft picks and stock pile kids

    so they might look at off loading some to get high picks this year and next to help reduce their salary cap

    ready for the COLA to be gone

    I don't like the swans and I think the coal should definitely go. But this is a ridiculous move by the AFL and should not be allowed.

    Oh good, Voss has an opinion...

    Where was he when we were penalised for not tanking, when there wasn't even a rule against "tanking"?

    Things are grim when Andrew Bogut posts that this decision indicates that the AFL are a shambles.

    This will not effect the swans to the next 2 season.

    they will use the delisted free agents who can fill a role ie Laidler & derricks.

    that why they keep Goodes & Shaw for next season

    Classic moneyball but with a Yankees budget .

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • 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.
