Maybe not done in the last few minutes, but drip fed announcements in the last few minutes.

A count down might be in order Mr. Leg!

Some lurid details please Ernie.

Are you talking about 

Bette Midler Live album and her man Ernie?

It’s all being set up for the live telecast on Wednesday 

All deals will have been signed off and will simply be ratified on the live telecast

Whole thing is so tedious 


My question is, why aren’t other clubs falling over each other in a bid to get his signature?

Look what happened when Mitch Clark was supposedly going home.

Surely the answer is that he wants to go to WA if he leaves us.  That just leaves WCE who don't seem to have anything to offer and Freo who......

I’d say no and yep.

 

The club would not allow it if it did not give them time to complete the May trade, I don’t think we want the pick to take to the draft.

tell me it can't be true...

my core beliefs are being questioned here

Don’t think I have ever seen such a chat on DL where everyone agrees on one thing (Distaste to Freos/Bells amateurish trade strategies) and is unified.

I'd say more probable. It's getting like this every year. Well... put it this way... if he does get to them this trade period, that'll be how it happens.

Not sure if you're joking... is it for real being telecast? streamed somewhere? What can they show? Just people running back and forth with papers in their hands? If I have to watch that McLure guy another second I'm gonna puke.

That's a good point actually. You would think though that Freo would have been made aware well in advance that that would need to be the case.

Your Avatar being a champion would be another.

Ah.. but could it be the AFL wanting young Belly to play the role of Black Hat Bart in its Wednesday evening drama.

 

Could all of these supposed deals Neale/Hogan/Sheil/Beams/May/Wingard already possibly gone through and AFL is just stock piling the news for this TV presentation?

He's succeeded...we all think he's an absolute ( insert word of choice )

That would be grand to be honest.  :)

Good. I hope he does. I watched Hogan as a junior and immediately knew he was the best key back since Hurley. Currently we are screaming out for a key back. The answer is slapping us right in the face.

This actually movement, it will be helpful to get this done.

If it's 11 for Lobb + 25, Freo may offer us 5 + 25 which is close enough to 5 + 23 for me

If it's 11 for Lobb + 43 who knows what might happen.

23 or 25 are not first rounders. Mahoney said 2 first rounders at the start of trade week. Talk of these trades is media speculation and nothing more. Wasting pick 5 on May is ridiculous.

Got a quote of where he said that?

  • 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.
