Is Moorabbin part of Melbourne?

Let’s say yes. But it doesn’t matter.

    Now watch Peter Bell ask for our current and future first rounders for Langdon.

    And watch Mahoney give them to Bell.

    Bell might get that feather in his cap that he’s been wanting so badly.

    Mark Stevens has been reading Demonland. 

    The best part about that statement is it is probably true

    Unless @Ethan Tremblay is Mark Stevens?

    With Lyon being sacked from Freo (who Langdon has a close relationship with), you would think that would only strengthen the case for him leaving.

    Nah, but we'll definitely give more than pick 20 for him.

    Seriously, what is he worth? I’ve not watched any free games other than ours against them.

    I'd say our 2nd round pick will get it done, given he is out of contract.

    He is worth it, given what he brings is something we lack.

    If we are that keen on him, I cannot comprehend why we didn't make a serious play for Langdon as part of the Hogan deal last year. Now we have zero bargaining power and will end up paying overs to bring him in this year.

    Yep Poita a very good poita

    Some on here say our recruiting has been marvelous

    In my opinion it has contributed largely to why we are where we are and it has left huge holes in the team  talent pool.

    I really think our recruiting has been poor for a number of years and hopefully the current review of football operations will address this.

    But I doubt it as the club appears to be in denial.

    Can somebody please tell me exactly what Todd Vineys' job is?? I have asked many times. Does any body know what he is accountable for?

    Because May was our No 1 target.  It might take a swap of First round picks and our second pick for Freo's third round and Langdon.  I'd

    Because Langdon was still contracted and said he would honour his contract.

    There's absolutely zero chance we'll swap our first round pick in any deal to get Langdon.

    Every chance we asked the question last year and got told no. He was in contract then, and apparently was the one who was loyal. Given he is out of contract this year gives a little more bargaining power, but he would be valued at our second pick so if that goes well I'd say we've paid his fair value, unless we can convince him to go to the pre-season draft and ensure the Suns don't take him (not going to happen!).

    Freo don't have a 3rd rounder, plus this would value him as a mid first round, which he isn't. Our second will get it done, I'd hope they try for next years second but doubt Freo would take that.

    Our second pick will be pushed to probably at least pick 22 or 23 because of academy players. That's a fair swap for Langdon

    With it being a formality and all, what is his nickname then? (what is it currently, surely not Karl)?

      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.
