Early time of year but I read somewhere Heppell would consider leaving the Dons would love/ hope Goodwin and Macartney do there best to bring him across would fit in nicely!! Thoughts?

Hawthorn will throw every spare cent they have at him, they're desperate to re-build their midfield for when Hodge, Mitchell and Lewis retire.

Not too sure about that: may have the Samson affect!

Otherwise I'd love him at the Dee's (but unfortunately I don't think it will happen).

Me either. Probably the most likely to stay, next captain and comes from a family of bombers diehards

Can't see him leaving, just can't see it happening. If he goes he goes for a Scully contact (over market value). That won't be cheap, and the dees have committed to what they have so I can't see us having an offer large enough to sway him.

Have to give up something very good to get something good.

I'm enjoying the players we have. I am happy for us to sign up our own for what they are worth and get on with it. Bringing in players on "overs" can create inflationary pressure on a club.

I thought the banned Bombers players had the choice of becoming delisted free agents?

Yep, it seems they can legally have their contracts null and void so other than monetary it doesn't cost us a thing, they will just get compo from AFL.

Article in the paper the other day indicates the Crows are into him in a big way.

I agree. Is he a free agent?

no. he would have to go the dfa path based on contract breach, or, convince essendrug he's going no matter what and let them trade him

the former option obviously suits us but he could take the latter option to avoid more bad blood

Last time I courted someone I ended up with a ring on my finger and a child, so no, no we shouldn't be courting him.

    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.
