I realise that, but he's got an extensive history of breaking down.

Jesse could go on for the rest of his career injury free, and good luck to him (personally) if he does.  But I have my doubts.

Wouldn't say it's extensive history... but he plays a style of game that is high intensity and high impact, but he will play a different game at the dockers than with us I think. Freo will not want him to roam as far from goal, so maybe that changes!

6 or 11 is relevant given the possibility of the earlier pick being traded into more picks or players than 11 could. Whether that happens is another thing. 

I think discussion is between 11 or 23. 6 is a given.

So how many of the media experts actually got the specifics of that trade correct?

To be fair, they did get the bones right.... They never get the all the facts, they only get tid bits

So his goal returns will fall - as he has to go upfield to get the ball.

If he wants to get a kick at Fremantle he'll have to play at full back.

Yep, they get bits and pieces only, similar to the Hogan trade. We still are no closer to knowing the full deal.

If it's Hogan for 6 and 19 then that's two 1st round picks.  That's what we asked for.  Hard to mount an argument that we have taken significant unders.

It's these bits and pieces that will determine if the Hogan deal is fair or not however!

Seriously how can the Dockers get more for Neale that we do for Hogan FFS

Depends how their picks work out.  What if they want in two years time, or turn into average players?  What is May and KK are part of a premiership side in the next few seasons?

I'll hold off before saying Freo got 'more' for Neale than we did for Hogan.  Too subjective.

They no longer have 19. It has to be 6 and 23 now.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
