Sorry, LH.  I was looking at the list at the very top.  Totally missed the other one.

Updated for Lockhart and Dunkley, both recruited as Rookies. 

 

By my count we still have 39 players on our primary list because latest additions have been as Rookies.  If anyone has more accurate info please let me know.

Re the list:

I'm guessing we will lose quite a few Rookies. 

Its hard to see a lot of the primary list players who are OOC this year getting an extension.  My thoughts:

  • Baker, Frost, Weideman will get new contracts.
  • J. Wagner, Garlett, J. Smith are 'maybe' depending on assessment of depth.
  • Stretch, Neal Bullen, Kennedy Harris at real risk of going.  They have been on our list for 4-5 years and not able to cement a regular 22 spot.  Can only keep them for so long.
  • Lewis, Maynard gone.
  • Jones - not sure.  Will challenge the list management team:  Nostalgia vs value add vs keeping a younger player out of the team/out of position.

We will get some good draft picks this year: a top 10 and a high second round pick so a chance to get some high end talent and skills.  Time to refresh.

Keilty, T Smith, Cagner, Walker in my opinion will all be delisted from the rookie list.

I would pick a mature age rookie and the rest on under 18 talent who have missed out on the main draft. Surely we can unlock another James Harmes there somewhere?


My opinion is that Garlett, Maynard are definite  delistings, Lewis will retire, of Kennedy-Harris, J Wagner, Stretch 2 will go.

Baker, Frost, Jones, ANB, Weideman, J Smith ( if he chooses to stay) will all receive new contracts.
I am not going to guess if other contracted players may be put up for trade.

pretty spot on, Stretch would be ahead of Jagner to get a new deal due to competion for third tall with lever back and hore performing down back too

Delighted to update this for Weideman's 2 year contract extension until 2021!

T Smith will be kept.

Keeps playing like that and he will. 

Really wrapped for his performance from the weekend. Always been a fan ever since I started watching him closely back in 2016. Just has had rotten luck with no consistency.

Keep at it Bull!

I now think Smith will stay at the expense of Keilty.

Does Corey Maynard get another contract?

I doubt that he will.

Yes need to get new deals for Melksham, Salem, Weideman and Neal-Bullen. 3 year deals for each of the blokes imo. 

Lewis Final year in 2019. Let’s get the premiership and send him out in style  

As they only have 1-year deals, Maynard, Garlett, Wagner-J and Jkh all need to show improvement to stay on board.  

Garlett just needs to find his desire once again and he’s best 22.

Ur

Sure milk resigned

I wonder how keen Frost will be to sign mindful of Steven May.

Surely J Wagner, Stretch, JKH, Maynard will all be gone. Hopefully. AVB retires.

It is looking that way.  AVB has two years to go so if there is any chance of coming good the club will stick with him.

On other possible changes, I think it is harsh to delist J Smith and Garlett as they have season ending injuries and its tough to recover without the support of a football club.  I doubt they can be traded so would like to see them get a one year contract or be rookied.

I don’t see an issue. He’s clearly in our starting back six along with May and Lever.

Two weeks ago ANB was close to a 2 year extension. How long is close?

  • 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.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    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.
