Total star! Exactly what we need, I'm not saying we should cough up the kitchen sink but would be happy to offload one or more inside mids to get him.

    FFS he was in the All Australian squad at 21 years of age and people here are saying his stats aren't good enough???

    Sorry, i'm a bit confused. Did i miss something? Who on 'here' is saying 'his stats aren't good enough???'

    How are you unable to see real talent when it smacks you in the face?

    Melbourne is confident they will get Lever.

    Melbourne were confident they would make finals too... We all know what happened there. Lol

    What makes you deduce bandicoot can't see real talent from the comment of his you quoted?

    Lever is a gun but I'd much rather keep the McDonald's and Frost, and use that salary cap and trade options for a classy midfielder.

    All well and good Clint, but what if no classy mid wants to come to us this year?

    Take them while you can get them.

    We should try first.

    Aside from Kelly who will most likely end up at Carlton or stay at GWS, who else would you target? Lever is a star and more importantly a leader. If a player of his calibre wants to come to the club, you get it done

    Spoke to someone from Carlton yesterday and they thought Kelly would stay at GWS

    Surely then GWS would have to push out someone else to make room. Hopper has signed on. Dev Smith is OOC. Others have mentioned Whitfield. Is Kennedy any good? Please god not $culldog. 

    Will be an interesting finals series for them.

    Devon Smith is basically gone....his issue is more of around midfield time rather than coin.  If Kelly stays you can take it to the bank that Smith will go

    I've already received the 2018 calendar with him on the cover in the mail. What could possibly go wrong?

    I know he was simply asked the question and answered honestly, but I liked it much better when under Roos we stfu about potential trades and talked only when they were done. Of course the media now paints it that we expect Lever to saunter over to us.

    It's not hard to either shut up or play dumb and not give away stupid headlines.

    FMD! Is there a worse club at premature expectation than the MFC?

    Yep.  And if he doesn't we look a bit silly.

    Speaking of which...  my little finals tickets booklet arrived on Friday...   :(

    Surely we'd have to look at getting a three way trade done with the crows and blues 

    although the blues are known to greatly overrate their own players. This is evident with SOS cleaning out all his picks from the giants 

    My complicated attempt would be 

    we send sam frost and our second rounder ( 28) to the crows for their first rounder (16-18) 

    we send (16-18) and 2018 second round pick for Bryce Gibbs. 

    Bryce Gibbs goes to Adelaide in exchange for jake lever 

    jake lever comes to us. 

     

    Crows get Gibbs, frost and a second rounder for a first rounder and lever 

    we get lever for frost and 2 second rounders 

    blues get a first and a second rounder for Gibbs 

     

    we get jake lever into the club and retain our pick number 10 and 2018 pick

    I think we do too well out of this, and the Crows get stooged somewhat

    Too much for Gibbs, he's turning 30 next year.

    So is Nathan jones and we'd want more than a first rounder for him if he requested a trade

      It's Game Day and the Demons have another opportunity to spoil another team's finals aspirations as they take on the Hawks at the MCG. What do you want to see from the boys today?

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • 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.
