Would we look at trading next year's first pick for gws pick 19? It gets us an extra early pick this year with lots of spots to fill on the list and hopefully our first pick next year is 15 onwards so wouldn't be a massive loss there. Gws have a few early picks in the draft already. Thoughts?

    1. Do we have anyone in mind at that pick?

    2. Do we have permission to trade next year’s first round pick?

    Does anyone know anything about this kid we've been linked to:

    Hayden McLean

    Height: 196cm
    Weight: 93kg
    DOB: 20/1/1999
    Club: Sandringham

    Along with Jok, McLean is the other player training with St Kilda in the lead up to the Draft. At 196cm, McLean plays predominantly as a tall forward but he can go into the ruck and pinch-hit when needed. Still only 19, McLean uses his body effectively in marking contests and he has a strong set of hands. Melbourne is another club that is reportedly interested in him after they delisted Mitch King and Lachlan Filipovic.

    We would be trading into this year's first round so no permission needed from the AFL.

    We just have a lot of spots to fill so I'm sure they would have someone in mind around 19 hill? Ely smith?

    No-one would have bought it. Everyone would have seen straight through it, laughed, and continued on.

    Just as everyone did when Freo stated that categorically they were no longer chasing Hogan. No-one bought it and Freo just looked like D*cks.

    And yet Freo got exactly what they wanted whilst paying way unders and we got royally screwed for Hogan. I'd rather have Freo's team dealing with trades than ours.

    I like it. With this years pick 19, MFC have a better chance at Bailey Williams or Liam Stocker.

    • 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.
