You are kidding mate!

They offered 11 and 23 and we got 5 and 23.  

A win for both

Regardless he was worth 2 first rounds. Especially from a club that's had zero success since inception.

Poorly handled.

    It removes the distraction of will he wont he stay for the next 12 months.  We get May, Preuss, KK pick 23 for Hogan Kent and Tyson.  I reckon we have identified holes and filled them

    We have improved our list, that’s what it’s all about.

    Honestly Hogan was going to command big dollars next year. We would have probably ended up with less next year if he left then. They sold for as much as they could get for him.

    Interesting trade to move 8 spots, not sure what the logic is?

    Yes. Tired of the “will he go home” circus every 12 months. Let him go and play for Freo. Hope he can get a kick in their forward line.

    Perhaps we are up to something? Maybe trying to get into the first round.

    Would think a player...if just picks we have days up our sleeves. For a player we have a bit under ,5 hours...I'm intrigued.

    WE CAVED IN WITH HOGAN DEAL. Freo and other clubs must be laughing their heads of at this deal!

    should have insisted on 5, 19, Kollo and late third rounder.

    Under the deal done Neale worth more than Hoges

    Gutted!

    And when they said no..?

    How do you 'win' a trade period?

    Jesse was going, even if he stayed, he was gone next year and we all know what happens when players stays on when they have already checked out.

    We got a big body defender in, which we dont have and a promising youngster running and delivering out of the backline, which we also dont have (Hunt hasnt proven himself there).

    We also take in pick 23 into a very promising draft.

    Was it ideal? No, but we certainly got 2 quality players and a good chance a ripper kid in the draft.

    Just to confirm does that mean we now have 7 places to fill on the list?

    They have their eye on someone and think he will will be gone by 36.

    If there were a Mario from Doncaster of Demonland, surely it would be Picket.

    You get a good idea whether you've won in September 2019.

    • 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.
