    Preuss must be a done deal then. Also was Bugg out of contract? shame we couldn't get trade value from him.

    Thought Mitch King showed enough early to do better in the VFL this year and kick on but once he was dropped from the VFL side that wasn't happening. 

    Flip and athletic type but lacked any real AFL qualities and did nothing at Casey.

    Feel for Pat McKenna, had a terrible run with injuries and couldn't get anything going at Casey but even without the fitness if you've got an AFL future you should show something in the 2's.

    By all reports all pretty good guys and good team mates so we'll need to reload and go again at the drafts.

    That gives us 6 spots on senior list with AVB, JKH and Kent uncontracted.

    AVB and JKH are surely getting new deals. Kent might want to leave.

    Add Kent into the Hogan deal to ensure we get 2 first rounders and change

    I believe D.Johnston and D.Kelity are also both uncontracted as yet...

    5 go and 7 spots on the list, that is quite a cleanout.

    Kent could fit in Hogan's suitcase or maybe we could agree to trade hogan and send Kent over with a Hogan mask instead.

    Hopefully delisting all three established (CP) and potential developing rucks means that Preuss is a done deal.

    7 spots + the potential of Hogan/JKH/Kent leaving. We must seriously be confident on landing some free agents to fill the list. Can’t see us taking more then 4 picks at the ND

    Gee wiz... 

    Maybe we are having an active trade period? 7 spots on the list ready to go!

    Surely thats locked in.

    Kudos to MFC for telling them now they won't get contracts.  It gives their managers time to find another club to which they can go for free as they will be Delisted Free Agents.

    It is a respectful way of letting players go, unlike some clubs hold on to their players till very late in the trade cycle in the hope they get a pick of some small value late in the draft.

    I would be very happy to see any of them find their way to a new club.

    Wow, this is a huge clean out so far, also is Tyson going to the Saints? So then that will another one gone.

    I cannot understand why people talk of Hogan being traded. It is just insane. I wont even look at the trade Hogan thread.

    Have heard that JKH and Tim Smith have signed new 1 year deals and Keilty elevated to the senior list.

    The footy department are not mucking around!

    Premiership window is open and they make an additional 5 spots on the list. Wow, 7 spots on the list now.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
