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

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.

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.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
