Mandatory 3 list changes every year. Who do you have ahead of him?

I would say Pedo, if Weid finally comes good because we have King and Flip developing as well, age may finally count against him

JKH if he can't crack a senior game

Vince, age again

    I don't see Lewis playing in 2019 as he is slowing down noticeably.  

    The players you mentioned would be in the group to be looked at and  Vanders and McKenna if they can't get on the park. 

    Kent I think will leave if we don't play him and Frost could as well if he isn't played.  

    As our list is ok at this stage and tinkering only is needed, not wholesale change, we might only trade/delist 3-4 players. 

    Anyway bit early for me to worry about list changes at this stage.

    Surely the club wouldn't be so stupid as to give this guy another contract without seeing him play at least six VFL games this season. Coming up to 4 years on AFL lists, and hasn't come close to playing AFL football in that time. 

    McKenna is number 1 on the chopping block for me, just ahead of Vandenberg & Kennedy-Harris. Patience and loyalty are one thing, but you can't just keep blokes around forever if they aren't playing.

    If they cannot get on the park it does not matter how skilled they are.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that Lewis came to us on a 3 year contract.

    Might serve the last year as an assistant coach.

    Fair enough, I'd say Pedersen is likely to get another year but the other two are likely on the chopping block.

    Gee, that's a big call on a 4 time premiership player.

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
