    People suggesting as many as 10 players getting cut or traded need to consider who we are getting in.  We have no good draft picks at the moment, not a great position to trade and the best state league players will be given to the bottom teams.

    So players like JKH will certainly be on the list next year. I imagine T Smith will be as well. If Weed and Hogan both go down for example we need some cover.

    So 4 kids in the draft, 2 casey upgrades. 2 players traded in (Pruess and Gaff) - yes i still think we are a chance at gaff

    that is 6 so far.

    Tend to agree

    We've only really got ability to make one or two mid-level trades in and buy one RFA. Add 3-4 kids later in the draft and 1-2 State leaguers in and were looking at about 7 ins.

    Assuming no big name trade out (e.g. Hogan)... I think this means

    Retire: Vince, Pedersen, Balic

    Delist: Bugg, Filipovic,

    Trade: Tyson, Garlett

    Question mark ?: Johnstone, McKenna, King, T Smith (has he got a one year ext??)

    Then Lewis is safe and we need to  Re-Sign: Vandenberg, Kennedy-Harris, Kent and a few of the Question Marks

    All the players listed above your last line have no future with us.

    Delist: King & Filipovic (we got killed every week in ruck in VFL, especially if Preuss in they both have to go!)

    That gives us 5 spots with retirements.

    Sounds like Tyson trade likely that’s six spots, and as much as I like Garlett he will be another trade, making 7 spots available! 

    Then Bugg to trade, or Johnstone or McKenna delist and we have 8! 

    8 is plenty to trade, draft or deal, a very good spot to add into our existing list, with only one Tyson being in our preliminary final 22. Tyson best spot is inside mid and I’d put at least 6 in front of him (Oliver, Viney, Brayshaw, Harmes, Petracca, Jones) and could add Salem, and AVDB, maybe more!

    Trading, delisting eight looks great!

    Retire. Vince. Balic. 

    Delist. King. McKenna  Johnstone (then rookie) 

    trade or delist   Jkh   Bugg

    Rookie delist. Foilopovic 

    Rookie retain. T Smith Maynard

    That’s 7 total spots. (6 main 1 rookie) 

    trade possible. Tyson (tough call)

    rookie upgrade. Keilty

    Pedo Bugg Flopvic King McKenna all delisted

    I think Pedersen is unlucky. He was a handy backup but understand decision. 

    Johnstone lucky but might be delisted/rookied later

    Next? Jkh and Tyson are tradeable

    With Kent going we have 8 spots open on our list and its only 3 days since the season ended!  if hogan goes thats 9. No word about Maynard, Johnstone, Smith, Garlett yet

    sounds like we will be very active in the trade/draft!!

    Good decision to cut ties with King, Filipovic & McKenna. 

    I can't see any benefit to retaining Johnstone, even if his replacement is pick 100 in the rookie draft. Find the best available state league player and give him a chance on the list.

    Kennedy-Harris & T.Smith survive only because we have badly mismanaged our list over the past two years. 

    Garlett, Maynard & Wagner are lucky they have contracts for next year, particularly the first two. 

    I would have kept Pedersen around until after trade week, and Vince would be better value next year than the bottom ten players on our list.

    I thought the jungle drums were fairly strong that May would end up at Collingwood.

    Imagine this:

    Trade Hogan to Fremantle for Pick 6 and 5

    Trade Pick 5 to Gold Coast for Steven May

    Trade Pick 6 to GWS for Dylan Shiel

    Sign Andrew Gaff as a free agent

    Maynard is contracted, as is Garlett

    I know but I reckon Jeff and the Club might come to an arrangement to free up his spot. His heart is clearly not in it anymore. We will probably keep Maynard I’d say

    I now think May will go to Collingwood, Shiel to Hawks/Blues and Gaff to NM.

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      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?
