nah but it would be a Goodwin initiative, which the rest will probably follow as to not undermine the future boss

Did we offer both picks? If so, I'm glad it didn't pan out. I wouldn't even trade Brayshaw on his own for Danger.

Yeah we did..Very happy the trade didn't go through. Can't wait to see Petracca out there alongside Brayshaw.

It is around Schwab levels, I won't deny this, but I'm in good company here.

No coach would want to be surrounded by sycophants and yes-men, nor would an assistant last if this were his M.O.

Isn't it? Because at that time Melbourne were offering picks 2 and 3 lol.. It's not about what Adelaide want to settle for, Dangerfield has to agree to be traded to the club and unfortunately the way it's going it's Geelong or nothing. We are offering Adelaide pick 6 this year and 1st round next year, Adelaide are all over that but Dangerfield isn't accepting a trade to Melbourne.

It was an off the cuff comment. Pick 1 in any draft is better than a compo pick around the 13/14 mark.

SS is a scrubber.

a very good cultured, & DNA scrubber... & he would walk into our current team.

It wont just be Goodwin it will be a group decision. Do you think Goodwin could just overrule the opinion of the rest of the footy staff?

& it won't be just a milkman, it'll be a baker & a candlestick maker, were after. the milkman will be just a small part of our bigger ambitions.

For whatever it's worth, mentioned on BF by a GWS supporter that Tom Bugg is a lock to come to us.

I call BS on this. There's a GWS supporter? :P

Well then, I just don't see us losing a game next year.

Made me giggle... thought id post the appreciation

No a graders as we'd hope for (hopefully yet) but handy additions in their own right... Well time will tell... Surely an upgrade on a few we have now though

KB said Treloar was a definite to go Richmond.

Richmond are in an interesting space for us. They think they're close to being a contender and will therefore sacrifice high picks for ready made players that fill their perceived weaknesses.

So maybe there's an opportunity for us with Tyson to Tigers...

They have picks 12, 31, 49... and players? what would be acceptable for Dom?

Considering our needs at the moment and the deficiencies that still plague the midfield, Dom is one of our almost untouchable players. He will still be a gun - the guy is only 21.

Ideally, yes. But I'm suspicious that Carlton's most recently departed coach might have operated that way.

Really? Brad Green doesn't strike me as that kind of fellow.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
