Matt Jones could be in the gun.

Pedersen has been put in for early surgery which suggests he's safe. 

And i suspect White will get a 3rd rookie year going by Plapp's weekly write ups of his performances.

    IMO...Five to go off main list and two rookies

    Terlich

    Grimes (persecution)

    Dawes /Pedersen

    M.Jones / M.White

    Newton

    Michie(r)

    Max King (r)

    Wagner to be upgraded. Add Melksham. Grab Hibberd for pick 27 swap

    I'm guessing we have to use 3 picks in the draft ? 3rd & 4th round & one for Wagner upgrade. 

    IN: Hibberd, 3rd rounder 4th rounder, Wagner upgrade 

    OUT: Terlich (100%) Grimes (100%) Dawes, Newton/M.Jones. I want Mitch White gone too 

    That's 4-5 changes, guess there could be more. We don't have to free a spot for Melksham do we ? There is already a spot for him.

    You're probably right, but that's up to Goodwin now.  I always felt Roos had a soft spot for him, but that may not be the case with Goody.

    He could be in the 'trade gun.'

    Has some worth as a bottom 6/fringe player.

    Very good depth player and gives us speed which we don't have a lot of

    The interesting one will be which one of Dawes/Pedo goes

    Might be able to help here, it won't be Pedo.

    Why do you say that ? I will be filthy if they keep Dawes over Pedo!

    Most of the other posts have the bulk of the names covered, however I wouldn't be surprised to see Lamumba retire as well

    I said Pedo will be staying. The quote referred to which one would go. I said it won't be Pedo going.

    Delist: Terlich, Newton, White, King

    FA: Grimes

    50/50 on Dawes and I'd keep Michie for another year personally (shouldn't surprise anyone).

    Ahh misread, my mistake

    My barometer is set on Dawes. It will be sackcloth and ashes if we need to keep him.

    I'm split on him, but does the age of a list clogger matter? I mean if you're a list clogger by definition you probably won't get better, almost certainly you'll be 23+, if you're 24 or 29 who cares? In fact I'd probably rather the 29 year old for some life experience and leadership.

    Out: Terlich, Grimes, Dawes, Newton, Michie (r), Max King (r)
    Possible: Matt Jones, Mitch White (r)

    Trade out: 1 of Garland or Dunn (take your pick)

    Rookie promotion: Wagner

    Trade in: Hibberd

    Main list spots: 4  - 3rd round pick, 4th round pick, delisted free agent, PSD/extra rookie

    Rookie list spots: 3

    Train on:
    Matt Jones - depending on draft/free agents we might need an experienced outside runner. Could be rookied or go on the main list depending on list space
    Mitch White - needs to do a lot of speed work, could stay on but cutting him might give us flexibility
    Max King - if he got fit he's got a lot of talent, worth keeping him training if he came back in shape in November could be re rookied

    Couldn't find the previous thread...

    Who will the Dee's delist in the coming weeks?

    Usually there are 6-7 that make way. I think all below are on shaky ground. 

    Michie, White, Dawes, Terlich, Newton, Grimes, Max King, Pederson

    Not too sure who else is shaky, who will be traded and who will be on Rookie list. 

     

    From > Dunn, Terlich, King, Dawes, Newton, JK-H, Grimes,

    I am sure you cannot "rookiie" someone for more than 3yrs which means Max King will get the chop. Spencer could end up being traded surely he wants to play seniors and not be anyones sidekick. Bisbance,GC may be interested. If we cannot get Hibberd for the right currency then we should go for Marchbank,GWS are much easier to deal with than EFC. Dunn,Garland and Dawes all of whom are getting little senior game time may want  more.At this stage we cannot get a 1st round pick so hopefully there are some diamonds in the rough in our latter draft round picks. Salem will become a midfielder which means ANB could be traded. Garlett may need to do some midfield work due to lack of opportunities to score in the forward line.

    Spencer has been re-signed until 2017 and I suspect that unless we bring in an experienced and proven ruckman of the Mumford ilk, Spencer will continue to sign one-year extensions. He's not going anywhere. It would be suicide to dump ruck stocks when your back-up ruckman on game day is Jack Watts.

    Could easily have played 18.  Got injured early when his form was very good and missed a block of 4-5 games.  When he came back he played well in the VFL but we had almost a full list to choose from.

    Delist certainties: Michie, Terlich, Newton, King

    Delist probabilities: M.Jones, 

    Trade: ANB (keep if no trade), JKH (keep if no trade), Grimes (DL if no trade), Dawes, Garland (DL if no trade), Dunn

    That should be 5-6 spots freed up on the list for Hibberd + Wagner + 1 more trade in + 3 picks in draft

    • 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.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
