Trade Radio saying Rory Lobb is worth a 1st round pick?? I thought a 2nd round would get it done for him or am I missing something?

Lobb is a seriously good link player who can also play ruck and forward.

Definitely worth a  first rounder. The debate would be over high, medium or low.

Lobb is such a 'nothing' footballer.

Not a key forward...

Not a first ruck...

Just... meh.

Future first round they reckon. I’d have thought around 20. But they’re offering him 750k so not easy to do that and then argue he’s not worth a first rounder

If you could pass that on to Freo, so they only give a second rounder, it would be much appreciated!

Interesting that we would tell them what deal would get Jesse, when Jesse hasn't even told us he wants to go, allegedly.

Hard to see how Freo are going to satisfy us and GWS without trading out established stars of their own, more than Neale even

Yes, though it is possible that Jesse is ambivalent and we have told Freo we want more than Freo is likely to be able to provide.

There's some options there still. 

They've used 1st round picks in last years draft, so that frees up next year.

They'll surely trade Neale after him being so public about wanting to leave.

There's a possibility of trading an early first rounder into two mid-first rounders.

I reckon we were told to deadline and we simply haven't leaked Jesse's decision since.

What, Jesse can write with either hand?

I find it odd there really isn't much talk of the Hogan trade considering his status and worth, all gone fairly quiet and lots of dribble on others.

If signing a multi-million dollar contract I reckon he could use his foot to hold the pen.

Lever is a key part of my optimism... thought that would have been blatantly obvious.

KK is a great addition, also not a key position player. He will be replacing lewis, or potentially going onto a wing/defence rotation with salam. 

May is also a great addition, but just because we are trying to get a player in doesn't mean we cannot succeed without said player. I personally think making a prelim with a super young list, without our best defender, is cause for optimism. 

You said it was "a myth that we struggled down back"

It's no myth. You can say it Fonzie...I was w-w-w-w-...

I say im optimistic about our defence in 2019, you say "wrong, that's why we got lever"... your bringing shame to jnr's name

btw, the 70's called and wants its joke back

Why not. We simply tell them what will get the deal done. It's called naming your price.

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    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
