Deep throat tells me we are enquiring as to Sydney's Josh Kennedy.

We had a go last year, didn't we?

Next week is going to be full on.

Our list is going to look very different

It had to happen.

Drinks...

Captain Obvious to the rescue.

Followed by Sidekick Sarcasm

(nar WYL I heard Paul the other day saying it didn't have to happen and he wanted to keep the list as it is...)

Just home...just read this... hole in one ...well done

others could learn

Agree - good work Mr Smoker !!

Griffen's move must put us in the game. The Bulldogs want early picks to use on this year's crop of talls - and we are the only sellers around. If they can drag a young gun out of GWS for Griffen and give him to us - the Bulldogs can get what they want.

Patton's knee has gone and they wont get Boyd. What other currency can GWS offer them?

If the Doggies could get a top 10 pick and a guy like Tomlinson out of this disaster they'll be doing well.

Once again, where has this come from? Multiple posters are sprouting this.

They may not be able to stop him, mate. If he says he wants to come back to Victoria and the MFC can offer pick 2 or 3, I think they take it and run. It's the same leverage we have with Dangerfield. We're actually incredibly lucky with this new FA paradigm (that has encouraged players, young and old to request a new home at will) coming into play when we have all these picks. Roos and co have been ready for it though. It's sounding ominous to me...in a good way.

I heard Wallet say it on trade radio, something along the lines of Petracca is the kid they really want if they can get him. But your point stands, I don't have evidence myself.

Now do you have any evidence Treloar wants back to VIC?

I don't have evidence of Treloar, because I wasn't saying he did want to come back to Victoria. If we were after him, we'd have to convince him presumably.

Someone just posted in the Potential trades thread, SEN have reported Dangerfield and Treloar are coming.

That would be the best outcome possible.

In some ways I would prefer Treloar to Danger and, like most here, I rate him in the top few of the league. Dangerfield, Jones, Treloar, Tyson, Viney and Cross gives us top 8 potential.

Ended up that it was just Jay Clark on SEN saying that if Dees traded Trengove for pick 12, it could give them enough early picks to be able to trade for two guys of the calibre of Dangerfield and Treloar.

It's not like the pen is hovering over the dotted line.

Richmond were to complete their medical assessment of JT this morning.

Keep hearing rumblings about some A Graders on route to the dees. Talks with Port Adelaide are ongoing about the offloading of pick 12 to them but that is old news when it comes our way for Trenners. It will be a sad day to see the heart and soul of our club to go. But we will lose more off field than we will on field. His best seems behind him which is strange for a 23 y.o. He isnt going to get any quicker.

As happy as I would be to head to the draft with Picks 2 and 3 and take home two of McCartin, Petracca, Brayshaw (who has injured his foot) I just cant see Roos going around with more kids. The expectation will be for Salem to really step up this year and unless traded the likes of Toumpas and Viney will be expected to have break out years after three preseasons.

So with a little more than 60 hours to go until the close of trade week, some big names are to be thrown around and expected to land. Its the unspoken ones which seem secondary to Beams, Griffan, Ryder and co.

Game on Roosey.

It is often mentioned that Roos has said something to the effect of not wanting too many kids, does anyone actually have the quote. As i wonder if he was referring to light underdeveloped players as opposed to some of the big bodied draftees available.

The quote was that he didn't draft talls out of the TAC. The reasons being that TAC rules don't allow flooding/ double teaming and that you don't know what the quality of opposition they're playing on is like each week, eg one week they're on someone the same size, the next they're playing on someone a foot shorter than them.

Could we be that fortunate? Hell, I'd trade 90% of the team for a player like that.

would be a dream scanario

still young, about to tun 22 and averaged 26 touches, 6 tackles and kicked 25 goals

On the verge of greatness this kid, he is just so damaging

Just won the Swans B&F. They won't trade him in a pink fit.

Might be time to get comfortable with the fact that there is no hidden target and Lamumba, Garlett and Frost might be it.

We only had 3 trades last year too.

We are secretly/quietly pressing hard for a midfielder from ****** who was at the Brownlow night. Will have to move from where he lives though.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.
