Footy chat has been suggesting we have been heavily into Langdon for a while now. In with a shot at least. Got a bit of a Hibberd feel to it.

    As the saying goes "You have got to be in it to win it"

    3rd pick will add some much need dash to our midfield mix.

    No way Freo let Langdon go for third rounder. He’s worth a late first/early second round pick. He’ll be top 5 in their BnF two years running now and is only 23.

    Need to play hardball with Freo for an out of contract player after what they did to us with Hogan if he nominates us. Certainly nothing involving a first rounder. Maybe even a fake 'pulling out of the race' or some such bs.

    Free slab of beer to the first person to suggest the need to play #hardball in the chase to get Langdon - referencing Bell/Hogan etc. 

    send me your address and I’ll drop it off...

    postscript: that’ll be you then @TheoX

    The guy’s a jet and we’ve been ‘linked’ with him for a while.  He’d be worth a first round pick- don’t know about a top five pick though...

    Hahha. From what we’ve seen the Dees are “fair”. If they want him they’ll pay for him in trade value and $.

    I don't think we are allowed to use our FIRST ROUNDER this year. It may have to be a future first.

    Anyway we can ask Peter. [email protected]

    We need to make up stuff like Peter Bell - like we won't do the deal because Hogan Langdon's asking for a seven year deal.

    Nice one Pete!

    We can. It's a rolling 4 year period. We just have to use a first rounder either this year or next year.

    Does anyone know if the bloke is any good?  I've heard of him but have no idea if he can play or not.

    Yeah, he’s pretty good.

    Hope he likes playing with his bro.

    I did, until we didn't.

    I remember when playing for the Manangatang Saints U13s, the Ouyen under 13s were a player short so they made my younger brother don the Ouyen (Demon colours) jumper. In an incredible piece of future thinking he went The Full Stratton on me niggling niggling. I put him in a headlock then we both got sent off to my mother's horror.

    Our first rounder for their first rounder and Langdon?

    He’s gonna be worth more than our second rounder unfortunately 

    Seriously good player

    Our second round pick (21 - 25) would go very close to getting it done. He is not worth a pick under 20. 

    Good player but he is not Brad Hill.

    I agree that's about his worth but I suspect that given his age and steady improvement the Dockers will demand at least a lateish first round pick 14-18. Which I'd be happy for the club to pay but we don't have a late first pick to give.

    *I'm not advocating this deal*

    But if I was Freo I would offer Langdon and their first pick (10-12) for Gus Brayshaw and our 2nd.

    Are the Brayshaw brothers from WA?

    I don't think he is actually any good. I have watched him closely since mid last year when rumours started about him coming to Melbourne. His skills are not flash. Decision making isnt either. What do others see that i dont? 

    I regard him as a good, regular player rather than a first-rounder or potential star. As a utility, I'd regard him slightly higher and useful.  His pace is interesting to me, though. It seems above average and he is a solid tackler, too.

    Elite runner, great speed, sloppy disposer. 

    Not sure how he'll address our diabolical use going inside 50. 

    Exactly!

    People on here complaining about how terrible our disposal has been this year. As you mentioned, there’s no doubting the boys pace & run... but his guy would match some of our worst kicks in the team.

    Born there, moved to Vic when quite young though.

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

    • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

      It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?

    • CASEY: Collingwood

      It was freezing cold at Mission Whitten Stadium where only the brave came out in the rain to watch a game that turned out to be as miserable as the weather.
      The Casey Demons secured their third consecutive victory, earning the four premiership points and credit for defeating a highly regarded Collingwood side, but achieved little else. Apart perhaps from setting the scene for Monday’s big game at the MCG and the Ice Challenge that precedes it.
      Neither team showcased significant skill in the bleak and greasy conditions, at a location that was far from either’s home territory. Even the field umpires forgot where they were and experienced a challenging evening, but no further comment is necessary.
