A minute to go until half time and langdon is already up to 21 disposals and has kicked 2.0

Do whatever it takes to get him to the Dees!

Only 4 more disp for the match, Dazzle. Must be cooling his jets getting ready for landing at the Dees!

 

Didn’t want to pump his trade value up too much. Good lad.

In all seriousness, I’m not sure what it will take to get this deal done. Peter Bell just seems like a real curveball.

Our second rounder, be prepared to walk away if they want more. There's always that Cutler bloke who would cost a lot less.

 

Langdon is our number 1 target. 

Ironic as we could have selected Langdon ahead of Oscar McDonald.  !?!?!?

Some talk Brandon Matera may also look elsewhere, showed this year he was a dangerous small forward. i wonder if we could get him as well?

We need to look at anyone who can tackle and kick a goal.

Butler, Papley, Sam gray, Shai Bolton, Jarrod Cameron, Jack Petruccele.

In m mind we need two of these guys for next season.

Its the simplest of trades that really should get done very quickly. He is not worth a 1strounder and is better than a late second rounder. our 2nd pick is going to be around 21ish.. if it gets complicated then it son Freo and its on us. we say pick 21. take it or leave it.

I am a big fan of Cutler, we could get him for a 3rd rounder.

I don't know anything about Cutler. Is he on a list now?

Yeah he is on the Lions list, has suffered from injuries this year and then the Lions going bang he has struggled to get back into side.

Wouldn't speak too soo. 

I've heard O-Mac will be a future AA for us from multiple demonlanders. 

Several even.

Maybe because he didn’t want to leave last year? 

FFS. Ridiculous post. Par for the course, but ridiculous nonetheless. 

Right. So he didn't want to leave at the end of 2018 to join a team that was widely viewed as being a premiership contender, but now that we're a basket case he's happy to come across. Some people will believe anything.?

Omg. Maybe add Omcd to Freo in the deal.

I cannot believe we are not throwing the sink at papley. Would take ANBs spot and fit our forward line and age demographic perfectly

How do you know we aren't?  How do we know we have enquired and been told he's not interested?  

You might be right, but in truth, we know nothing.

He didn’t want to leave Fremantle last year, whether to go to Melbourne or any other club. 

You’re currently upset that we didn’t trade for him last year when there is no evidence he had any interest in moving, so you’ve just made something up in your head. 

There is some supreme hypocrisy/irony in the bolded line.

I wanted Papley as well, but he's likely going to Carlton.  Let's see what they pay for him and that might explain why we aren't chasing him.

It all comes down to $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ in most cases. Papley is a very good player, but not worth $750k if that is what North or Carlton might be prepared to offer. I have no info on what the offer might be.

Not sure which is worse us not asking about Papley or being told 'no thanks'.

True.  Who knows what is happening behind closed doors, but after this season, I'd like to think we are leaving no stone unturned in improving our list.  No doubt some players might knock us back, but I think that would be similar to any year no matter where we are on the ladder.  We can't win them all.

As Clint mentioned above, it may be a money issue - Jack Martin may be demanding money we can't afford or are unwilling to pay.  If we are into Ed Langdon then a large chunk of what we have to pay and therefore we are looking at the opportunity to offload others, or we are going to attempt to fill some gaps through the draft.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
