Have you even seen May play. He is an elite defender, with elite speed and is a better user of the ball than Frost, Oscar Mcdonald and Lever so he would be a massive upgrade. May plays for the worst team in the comp, where he has no support at all. He would thrive in a team like ours. 

Well yes.  Too much unfortunately courtesy of a GC supporting friend, and this year had a special interest in May.  He  was not an elite ball user this year from what I saw and turns it over a lot. Champion data has him at almost 4 changers and turnovers a game, almost 25% of the time he gets it.  Not worth a high draft pick. There is not a defender even at Carlton at that level.

    That was 2 weeks wasted.

    Im not disappointed TBH. Hope Jesse comes back stronger for this in 2019.

    If I was Freo I'd be doing the following:

    Pick 11 & 23 to GWS for Lobb and pick 14

    Neale & pick 49 to Brissy for Pick 5, 2019 2nd round & pick 41

    Pick 5 & 14 to Melb for Hogan

    We can then send 5 & 32 to GC for May and pick 24

    A very good outcome for us (@#$% the rest lol )

    You've missed your calling ;)

    So what does Jesse think about going to Freo now? Would he go next year?

    Where was this sourced from?

    Are you happy with that though. There's no way I can put up with Oscar Mcdonald for another season. Especially with teams like richmond having lynch and riewoldt. 

    Rubbish comment Omac gets exposed at times due to poor pressure up the ground but reads it quite well and wins a lot of 1 on 1's his disposal is also good. People seem to remeber 2 years ago Omac not the player we have now.

    Thanks Freo. Hope you enjoy bottom four next year.

    Idiots. Obviously content to be mired in mediocrity for many years to come.

    Myself, very content for us to move on and for Jesse to help us win a flag in 2019.

    • 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 return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

      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.
