    I doubt he plays on

    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.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
