I once predicted the fall of the Roman Empire. Seriously, I have no information other than what my snout gave me. That's all.

You might be on to something considering what Damian Barrett just wrote about us in his Sliding Doors column.

 

Dland : "So Paul....goss going around suggests the Dees will surprise all by landing a big fish this trade"

:roos: " Well, ,we're looking to be active during the period and you know you can never tell often until at such time as you might find a deal comes across the desk but we'll just wait and we're certainly looking into being amongst it" :roos:

To be clear I have zero information. But hers my guess for the big fish.

Kennedy from the swans

Kennedy from the swans

Is he a free agent? Hes a great player but its not wise giving up pick 6 for a bloke who will be 28 before next season ends

Just speculating pick 6 is what the Swans would demand for him

just a question though

Swans are haemorrhaging experience at the moment. Would they let Kennedy go now ? Would seem odd...to me

not a free agent

Does it matter these days if a player is a free agent or indeed off contract?

Damn you!

You've now forced me to actually go and read some of his trash journalism.

I feeling a little violated.

Ed; so other don't have to:

Melbourne

(If) there's a team we feel is keeping its cards close to its chest as trade period looms ... ... (Then) it is this one. Predicting a massive play from left-field.

And since this year was his second year he had second year blues so next year I'm expecting him to kick 107 goals whilst claiming the Coleman, wins the Brownlow, norm smith and kick a lazy 9 in the GF.

Apparently Hogan and Club in preliminary discussions about a long term contract.

Gist of which suggests..." you want to stay....money isn't an issue "

Bodes well :)

Good work dees get in early. We should to get him locked away for the next 7-8 years soon.

He is the game changer. Pay him whatever.

I got dragged off to the Grand Final parade by my Hawk supporting in laws today. I decided to wear my MFC cap and shirt in defiance and it paid off. Jesse Hogan was in the back of one of the first few cars as the Rising Star and stopped briefly next to me frantically waving and although he was talking to a child next to him in the car, he did a double take when he noticed the colours and gave me a wink and a thumbs up! The next car was a let down with only Clarko and Hodge on board and I lost interest from there.

well done earl. you could have given that ex-dee clarko a wave though (without it looking like one for hodge)

but according to danny boy you were supposed to be at home enjoying quality relaxing time with family

i suppose in-laws roughly count as family though


I hear we should have an answer soon on Jesse's long term contract. Fingers crossed.

Whats it leaning towards?

A few of the MFC boys should be around the G tomorrow. At least Hoges, Viney and Gussy.

Reckon Hoges would be a riot after sinking froths at the bar for a few hours.

chuck me a PM too AF, if you can be bothered. All in the spirit of silly season

 

I hope he's accepted 7 years at 300k because he wants to save salary cap room for guns to kick it down his throat.

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
