'I'va Worn Smith' has foreshadowed this in another thread. He rated his source a 7/10.

So it is worth getting a little excited!

He tells us we will know more after the GF :rolleyes: but then this could mean at the end of Trade Week :unsure:

Hoping it is sooner rather than later.

It could be that Barrett has been reading i'va's posts here on DL...it pleases me a great deal that the likes of Purple cannot find out what is going on at the Dees...

The thing that is also good about the 'silence' is that the relevant player manager is also keeping 'mum'...it is often these guys that leak rather than the clubs or players.

This gets me excited, massive play from left field. I salivate at the prospects.

Big Fish could be someone out of left field like a Tom Mitchell,Hannebrry,Josh Kennedy.

Or maybe it is some from like a Bennell, Omeara or Prestia.

Got a gut feeling it is some one North of the border though, either a Swan, Giant, Sun or Lion.

My Guess, for what it's worth, are Kennedy and Bennell.

That would make me content.

In fact, any of those guys from up nor would do.

Ox was sounding smug about us nailing some from up north the other day.

I'd like to be wearing a smile like Roosey too. Will test my patients.

Some significant names still OOC: Garland 26 (RFA), Hunt19, Michie 23, Howe 24, Toumpas21, Harmes® 19

The longer they are OOC the less likely they will be at the Dees.

However, Harmes is a 'must re-sign'...we need to keep Jesse's buddies at the Club!!

Jokes aside, he had some terrific games this year and he has bucket loads of what Jesse calls 'competitive edge!

So he has earnt a contract and promotion to the senior list.

Probably waiting to see how the list and # of places pan out before finalizing it.

Fully expect him to be in the Red and Blue next year!

While its always sad to see Dees players go I am slowly accepting departures are necessary to significantly improve.

Totally agree. It wasn't an attack on Barrett as such (although given the chance.....) but more that, as frustrating as it is as a supporter not I hearing anything, it is how it should be so the due diligence and negotiating is being done without external pressures. That is my belief (hope) but if I'm wrong ........ then THE END IS NIGH! :lol:

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
