    i don't see why we can't have both kelly and lever. dorks got mitchell and o'meara when it looked like they had little to play with.

    What about Lever and Rockliff instead? As scrutinised as he has been, he still is a pretty decent player. Its just whether or not he could fit in with us anywhere i guess. For some reason i feel as though he could be a more realistic chance to be ours, if he were to nominate us.

    i'd also go for one of the swans excess tall 2ndruck/fwd's. they can't use all of tippett. reid, sinclair and maybe alir alir.

    we desperately need a good rotation for maxy who can play tall fwd

    i wouldn't be averse to rockliff either. he is 28 in feb, although not too old but getting close

    The advantage of Tippett is that you can make the Swans pay the majority of his salary

    The disadvantage for Tippett is that he's still Tippett...at his best a seriously good player and at his worst not quite as bad as Vickery...not quite

    I have no idea on contract status but I would be looking at Aliir and Mcstay.

    Rockliff could still have another 4 years of solid ball left in him, as long as we didn't give up too much then it'd nearly be rude not to have him. Same as Tippett, although he's probably a bit too inconsistent for me. His potential is intriguing but in reality, I don't think he'll work out for anyone. Reid and Aliir YES & YES

    Rockliff was on the table apparently last year and no one bought. Also a Rumor thread on DL that he was a done deal as a Demon. Now articles all year about his new coach love affair with Fagan, seems utterly pointless to bring up Rockliff again?

    Mcstay is, ahem, Mcstaying at the Lions for another 2 years, signed a new deal less than a month ago.

    Rockliff and C you next Tuesday are often used in the same sentence

    Jake lever and Zak jones would be a dream result if we could pull it off.. 

     

    jones would add pace and precision and lever would be a rock in our backline for a decade

    Actually. A few months ago I spoke to his juniors coach at Rovers. A bloke named Tim. Bit of a character, so take it for what it's worth... but the more beer me and my old man plied him with the more gossip he threw our way about the demons. He spoke about Hunt (fast but sprays it), Salem (skilled and good player but lacks ticker for the contest), and Brayshaw (lost count of the amount of times he carried him off the ground with concussions)... At this point I put it to him he likes finding the negative about players. He agreed, and said he does go straight to what can go wrong with them. Old habit of a coach. Then he threw in that they have another kid in the group he said he can't find anything wrong with at all. Kelly.

    How crazy is it that all 4 grew up together and now all four are some of the most sought after talent in the AFL.

    lolz

    Was just a thought, stranger things have happened. But wasn't he saying not long ago he'd do whatever was in his and his family's best interests? Whatever that means I guess

    I know, right? To his credit he did claim only what he saw as a junior. Not as an adult. Said that he could improve in that area easily.

    Drunken, certainly. You can blame me for that. But no idiot. Why the cheapshot? Seems accurate given each players' draft positions.

    I'm curious. For those with the patience to venture onto opposition fan-sites, which Demons players have sparked 30-page discussions on their potential poaching? Probably not 30 pages, but I'd be interested to hear in general who opposition fans think they can prise free, the currency suggested, and their perspective on these players as compared to our own.

    I don't have the patience for it, but at a guess I'd say the Freo boards (if such things exist) would have been frothing with Hogan talk before he re-signed.

    They absolutely were.... many thought it was a done deal... First rounder and change was the general consensus.

    Rockliff also doesn't like the Dees apprently. We supposedly promised him a rookie spot and took Jurrah instead at the last minute....

    Petracca, Viney, Hogan, Gawn and OMac

    pies fans are 100% convinced Petracca is on his way there..... given he supported them as a kid. lolz

    After Oliver's amazing season, you'd think it would be him. But apparently Tracca is the one they all want.

    And Petracca looks as happy a player at his club as I've ever seen.
    And I couldn't be happier.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
