I hope we are not one of the rival clubs....

Second that.

Perhaps one of the clubs is the Western Bulldogs, a replacement for that spud Boyd.

Tarrant would have to be the shittest bloke in aus if he walked out on North after they kept faith in him all these years.

'Opportunity'.

Plays one good game in ten.

Nope, [censored] him.

Would anyone want him if we were able to get him for a similar price to Garlett? I'm not sure i would

For pick 70 or whatever it was, yes I would take a chance, as nothing to lose. They will want the world for him, probably our first pick.

Well as it turns out after all these years, the classic meltdown over us drafting Grimes instead of Rance has turned out to be bloody accurate!

My meltdown was over Gysberts instead of Daniel Talia and then Toumpas over Wines.

Can't Agee re YzeMagic, he was awesome entertainment value IMO....

Lol he still posts on here you know? Just under a different name obviously.

His finest was saying Sylvia was the next Garry Ablett senior..

I don't want Garlett and Vince.

Exactly.

It's going to be pretty funny when Yarran is running around playing really good football for a different club next year.

Might just be for us.

Fickle folk you lot.

Yarran would be a great get for our forward line

I seem to remember almost exactly the same things were said about Jeff Garlett before Roos got hold of him. He is now one of the best trades we have had in years, along with BernieVince. Can I suggest Yarran has a huge amount of talent, but rarely uses it.

Can he be another Jeff Farmer, or another Sam Bleese? I'd be inclined to trust Roos on that.

Just plonk him in a pocket you think Roost? I wonder when Eddie Betts's contract is up? That would rub some serious salt in.

Yarran would be a great get for our forward line

don't want anyone from the bombers.

don't want john butcher.

don't want charlie dixon (for the money he'll get).

don't want henderson.

don't want tarrant.

ambivalent about yarran; would want it to be fairly 'cheap' trade.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
