Did anyone hear Plough's mini review?

Yep, didn't say too much that we don't already know.

- Said Watts and Dawes are on the table and might be traded for the right deal

- Melbourne are into Melksham and Ben Kennedy

- We have trouble in appealing as a destination club for the big names.

Don't remember anything particularly noteworthy to be honest.

Did anyone hear Plough's mini review?

As expected it was pointless. Told us nothing.

But Josh Mahoney is about to be interviewed, so hopefully some juicy stuff coming.

Posted

Josh on now:

Melksham, done a lot of work on him, want run and curry. He has indicated that he wants to join Melbourne


Posted

Been in contact with Dorodo, they are on the same wavelength insofar as what a fair deal would be (he didn't say what that was)

Posted

No offer for Danger. Said 10 mill over 6 was ridiculous and disrespectful to playing list.

Interest in Thomas Bugg. Fits our profile.

Jeremy Howe, still a chance to stay on list. He is testing the market, there are a range of clubs that have a certain monetary value on him.

Jack Watts - Thinks he will still be a Melbourne, initial interest from other clubs but no follow ups.

Jimmy Toumpas- Thought he showed improvement, been hampered by injury, still thinks there is still in AFL player there, he thinks Jimmy may want to go home but is exploring opportunites

Dawes - Bit of a vague answer, but said that its other clubs that might be talking about this.

Aaron Black- No discussions with him

Well, the run does often follow the curry.

(Seriously, thanks for keeping the rest of us updated. Even if it is waffle)

Brief summary of what was said.

- Highlighted the clubs desire to bring in competitors

- Club has talked and made progress with both Melksham, Ben Kennedy . Didn't really talk about what the club will need to give up in exchange for them

- Nothing has been offered to Patrick Dangerfield.

- Bugg was noted as another option for the Dee's

- There is still a chance Howe will stay a Demon. Said decision time for Jeremy is approaching

- Watts and Dawes will most likely remain Demons.

- Toumpas is looking at other opportunities.

- Aaron Black was mentioned as an option by Barrett. The club has not yet considered him as an option

- Colin Garland should be re-signed over the next couple days.

Reading between the lines.

Interest in Howe from others (multiple) I think gone.

No interest in Watts

Active in chasing Freeman and Bugg

Very active in chasing everyone, but every club is

Toump all but gone, he wants out but club see potential and would keep him

Garland to be announced as staying in coming days.

Chris, just to clarify, do you mean Howe is gone or the interest in him from others has disappeared?

Posted

Reading between the lines (my own interpretation):

Melksham will be a Demon in 2016

Kennedy and Bugg quite likely to be at the club also

Watts is staying

Howe is likely to go

Toumpas no certainty to go, looking elsewhere but club hasn't lost faith

Garland is staying (announcement soon)

    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.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
