    Hibberd and his manager officially anounced that hibberd will be playing with the dees next year, manager was confident that a deal to get him to the club will be done early in the trade period. Defiantly sounded as if our second round pick would be enough to complete the trade. Source: Nan afl trade radio, where barret, wallace, and lloyd are the hosts, bith hibberd and his manager are on the show atm

    Another piece of the puzzle filled, and an important one at that.

    More toughness, and foot skills off half back.

    If true, welcome to the Dees Michael.

    Both Hibberd and Melksham have had a year out of footy but they're experienced best 22 footballers that will add to our half back and on-ball brigade.

    Depth within the list is looking better all the time.

    Nah mate, doesn't count until a Brownlow medalist comes to us as a FA.

    If Essendon want to prove they're not tools at the trading table, this is a golden opportunity to prove it.  Fair price (our second rounder) seems to already be close to agreed upon, and the trade period is still a month away.  There shouldn't be too much left to argue about when the time comes.

    Get it done on day 1, Melbourne and Essendon, so both clubs can turn their focus to other business.

    Now where a destination club- yes it happened overnight -  we weren't one,  and then a guy said to the media that he wanted to come here-and now we are one. 

    How utterly [censored] ridiculous. God there are some moronic f!ogs in these here parts.

    The comments I saw were quite clearly taking the pizz. 

    Not sure what you are on about J.C

    This is why I shake my head every time someone suggests trading a player/picks, to upgrade our second round pick, and give it to essedon. Mind boggling, and totally pointless from our perspective.

    Nah there was no sarcasm, I was referring to little stuie saying we weren't a destination club because nobody had publicly nominated us. He was serious

    Ah ok.

    You said " God there are some moronic f!ogs in these here parts", so I assumed you were talking about more than one, and I only see Stuies comments when they are quoted. Same as Saty.

    Now sit back and await Stuie with his barrage of multi-quoting.

    No, I meant the others were being sarcastic, calling us a destination club, off the back of Hibberd coming. You didn't pick up on their sarcasm.

    Ok, not the greatest. Very one sided. Will go hard and a nice left foot kick. Does have 80 odd games of experience.

    If he can hit the ground running, I suspect he will be a fantastic pickup.

    High average possies, and has a massive, and accurate left boot.

    Takes minimal siht also.

    • CASEY: Geelong

      There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
