A trusted inside source has told me something very interesting, but I can't share it nor can I share who the source is. I can confirm that information surrounding Jesse will be made available some time in between now and 2019. Trust me.

So why tell us you know something if you can't share a thing about it?  How does that change anything?

Don’t sweat it. Hearing whispers another player will be involved in the trade. #ETthetradebreaker.

Jesse Hogan is worth Picks 4 and 5. Freo should get Pick 4 from Brisbane for Neale and they already have Pick 5.

Then we keep Pick 4 to pick up a Victorian midfielder in the Draft and trade Pick 5 for May and KK from Gold Coast. May is not worth Pick 5  as a direct trade.

After that, Dyson and vandenBerg to GWS for Dylan Shiel, and GWS can on-trade Tyson if he doesn't want to go back to his old club; Kent to North for Braydon Preuss, and North to trade Kent to St Kilda for whatever they can get.

Call me old-fashioned (because that is what I am), but I have had enough of these want-away Demons - trade them for the max that we can get and we move on.

One last one, - would love to get Langdon from Collingwood, but haven't yet worked out the trade, unless it involves Jayden Hunt, but sounds like he is not a want-away Demon, nd the Demons still want him, so I would not want to trade him out.

I think the error many are supposing...( its certainly a foundation for much stupidity in the media )  is the idea of two sharp  end 1st rounders...and thats all.    if my crystal ball was less fuzzy Id probably be looking at around a good pick...sub 7...another 1st rounder..10-13....and an exchange of  maybe a latter 2nd from Freo for a 3rd from us.

its all about providing the currency for other deals...MFC will look holistically at all of this Im absolutely sure . And why? because thats the track record of recent years...just get the deals done to get the deals done. You dont  really get to spend any change !!

The deal with GC  for May wont be in isolation either...so again..its all about packages  that fulfill requirements...ours and others.

Freo have picks 5 & 77, they'll probably get pick 4 for Neale

They don't have currency in each draft round to horse trade picks

We won't get these 2 picks

If Jesse publicly states he wants to leave, then his value is diminished - we won't make him stay for 2019, imagine the impact the press coverage would have particularly if he has a few bad games

I think we'd get 5 + a player at best

Players can't be traded without their agreement, and certainly can't be "on-traded" as you suggest. Picks can be, but not players.

id guess at May and Kolodjashnij for Hogan is being floated. I'd still want more, but thats just me. KPF are harder to find than other players. Although on the opposite if freo wait one year and hogan leaves for restricted free agency we'd get crap all (so hoping we play hard ball.

But we can choose to match the RFA package if we wish.  

Assuming Neale leaves and it sounds like he wants to, then picks 4/5 is what Hogan is worth this year.   If not we hold him and see what they come up with.

Which player fits our club and is a realistic possibility?

I looked through their list and there weren't a lot.

Other than the obvious ones i.e. Brayshaw, Cerra, Fyfe the only other one is Ed Langdon who we apparently already been after.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
