#zanotti reporting that he will sign for Sydney.  Personally I'm not the fazed.

Has been doing the twitter rounds this afternoon. Apparently Jones and Reid to re-sign long term

I would see him as an 7.5/10 player.   A good foot soldier but not a star.

IF the price is right, yes.  But not a must.

Wouldn't be in our best 22 even if we did get him.

Would just be depth.

Salem or Zac Jones is a tough choice but I reckon Zac could be as good as his big brother in a few years injury free . He has great handball skills is quick tough and a good kick and above all else super competitive. All though Nath has carried a disfunctional team -who knows how resilient people are until they have done it as has our great captain . 

If Salem can get some continuity he could be anything .

Take the red n blue glasses off mate. Zac would be best 22 and has 8-10 years of best 22 ahead of him at swans. His high draft pick and the reported 4 year deal is reflective of how he is valued.

LOL. Last offseason Zanotti said he was 99% sure Rockliff was going to be traded to Melbourne in a deal involving Lynden Dunn. I private messaged him pestering him about where he'd gotten his sources from and he said he'd make an apology post if he was wrong. Got blocked a few days later.

But wait I thought he was certain to be a demon! Didn't his body language clearly state he wanted to play with his brother?

Just having a laugh, knowing how loyal Nathan it's hardly surprising to find out his younger brother is the same.

Heard on the radio this morning that he's warming to playing with us next year.

Heard from someone who claimed to have a very good source that he has already committed to Saints. 

For all I know that source could be the X of X's X's X X X.... When I said that to him he got very adamant. As most people do with such an impeccable source.

Zac is a good NQR player or as Jack Dyer would have said, a good ordinary footballer. Not a criticism.Would not want to give up too much for him.

Would definitely have a role to play in our best 22, but he is far from a star or match winner.

Will be interesting to see what his trade value is...

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
