Why do people post these statements without supporting evidence?

This thread would be a lot shorter without those sort of bald bold statements.    I wish posters would at least say either this is my opinion/guess or here is my source whose credibility the reader can evaluate.

    I meant it’s nighttime, which is when somebody said we should get some news.

    This is not a shot at you Patches, as I believe this is probably likely, but what does a club have to gain by talking down a player's trade value publicly? 

    Well I think Melbourne have unintentionally shown their hand by publicly admitting we can’t sign may without hogan leaving and now freo are trying to make us panic into thinking we won’t get the deal we want for hogan and miss out on May. If the club stay firm I believe freo will give us the two top 10 picks

    Ha ha.  Some things can clearly be only a matter of opinion since in this case the only proof is for those posts to be banned and then see how long it takes to get to 300.

    Meanwhile in a parallel universe we can continue with assertions like:

    "Hogan doesn't think the Freo wage offer is large enough". 

    And compare the two threads.

      Nose: Sweet, rich and spicy fruit, with sugared lemons and limes, granny smith apples, honey and caramel.

      Palate: Toffee sweetness, apples, a hint of vanilla and a rich dark fruit background. Water lightens things with more orchard fruit, but without diminishing the richness of the dark fruit hiding underneath.

      Finish: Dusty wood, raisins and sweet fruit leaves

      Comments: A solid sherried whisky sitting at the bottom of the Glendronach range but punching above well above its price-point.

    speechless by that florid description

    Agreed. I caught on late. Went to an event at Whisky & Alement last year and had it. Went to buy a bottle the next day and couldn't get it.

    Not sure why we'd panic. Much prefer Hogan on the list over May, even if we play Hogan in defence for the first few weeks of the season, while Lever gets fit.

    I just don't get why people seem to be scrambling to get May in. Our rebound defence dominated when everything clicked for Lever and that was without frost who clearly should have got a game earlier.

    Looks like we are getting closer:

    "The last bit of news for the day, which we must stress is little more than a whisper, is that Steven May had reportedly requested a trade from Gold Coast to Melbourne.

    Given the Demons had already claimed they didn’t have room for both May and Jesse Hogan in the side, you would have to think some progress on the Hogan-to-Fremantle front had been made for that development to have any truth to it."

    Deadline for Jesse tomorrow then?  Take your pick:  Melbourne time, Perth time, Bali time!!

    We were still getting scored against very heavily.

    Something to do with Mahoney listing stiffening up defence as 1 of 3 priorities. Hogan at chb is speculative

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
