Well trade week appears to have reached a most interesting point. Rumour and innuendo play a massively important part and we wouldn't have it any other way. If you don't have a source or a line on inside info this time of year, you're a pretender. So with this in mind, it appears one of three things will occur over the next few days. It remains to be seen which poster will survive to receive the adulation of all of Demonland. So place your bets ladies and gentlemen.

Option One: All aboard the 'Chook in Perth' bandwagon. Dangerfield in red and blue. Rejoice!

Option Two: JumpinJeremyHowe - new to the boards, confident swagger; assures us we're serious players in the Beams Battle.

Option Three: They're both full of it.

What'll it be folks????

Or is there a fourth option? Will GNF come through with some late mail?

i don't think anyone has a clue what's going on

club are playing their cards close to their chest and not leaking

I think you're right which is why it makes it all the more interesting when two posters come out and make confident yet contradictory statements.

I bet whatever number option DC's above post is.

In relation to this love the fact that the club is not leaking and is watertight, gives me confidence that whatever happens we are not using a "Scatter Gun" approach. (Stupid DB)

yes dc, BUT what about the club at the other end... silent as well? & the player, silent?

I'm confused, because there are so many smoke screens out there. lay over a film of infrared common sense to see this picture ?

Option one: Can't see us letting Trengove go for pick 12 in return if it isn't for nothing (Considering most players outside of the top 5 aren't worth Trengove), Adelaide and Melbourne have been in talks for Dangerfield, i reckon we have offered Pick 2 + Pick 23, they knocked that back and said they want another first rounder, we've decided to talk to Richmond about pick 12, and what it'll cost us. Also, I really would like Trengove to stay.

Im on the Chook bangwagon. Everyone seems to worship GNF yet while chook sneaks under the radar a fair bit and always is spot on.

Plus Chook doesn't beat around the bush with these ridiculous 'riddles'.

Straight down the line.

I'm backing chook over GNF for sure! Mostly cause I have no idea really of what GNF is on about & I think we'll only land one elite player if any, not 2..... Although I'd really be happy to be wrong about that.

At absolute worst I hope we land a Coniglio-type + pick downgrade for Lever as per the Tyson/Salem trade with one of our early picks.

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
