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.

 

So are we a "destination club" now!!??

Destination club!!!!!!!

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.  

But were not the ugly girl in the corner any more, at least were up on the dance floor.

 

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

Turned the sarcasm meter off did you. They were joking.

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.

See if you didn't have people on block the message would have made sense

I did, I was just agreeing with them in a less diplomatic was. 

Anyway,  how does old mother hibberd go as a player?

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.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
