Don't even get in his ear. Let carlton think they can get him via the psd. 

Then let him and carlton know he is ours when Mahoney reads his name out.

    This would be an absolute bonus pick up, we should seriously consider 3 years at around 400k.

    This would be a steal.

    Apparently GC offered Martin + 15 for 9, but Carlton refused.

    9 + a future second.

    Anyone know what his contract demands were with Carlton? Aparently he was very excited about playing with Betts, maybe Lord Nev needs to make a phone call and tell him he can train against the best small defender in the game and hone his craft! ?

    Take him in the PSD. Would be the perfect end to a successful offseason if that occurred!

    Play him at half forward as the kick inside 50 and stealing a few goals. Perfect fit for us with a bit of agility, pace, and great kicking skills.

    Make it happen Dees!

    The 3 AFL 2019/2020 priority picks allows GCS the luxury of possibly losing Martin for zip.

    I'm glad they played hardball - it sends a strong message.

    Yep agreed I couldn't believe the "experts" were rating him as a mid 20s pick. Surely a pick around 12-18 is what was needed to get him over the line. 

    Carlton fans surely will be fuming, I'm sure a 35 year old Betts might get a goal of the year nomination for them.

    Does anyone know what sort of coin he was asking for at Carlton?

    This would actually be so amazing and the biggest FU to those carlscum supporters if we nab him in the PSD. 

    Here's hoping he is good mates with May and or KK.

    I don't understand how the Blues would not accept Martin and pick 15 for pick 9?

    Especially when you've gone down the route of offering a deal and telling Martin you want him at your club. If I was Jack Martin I would be seriously pi**ed.

    Say what you want about Mahoney, at least when we chase players we make sure to get the deals done, even if people feel we pay slight overs.

    I really hope we can use Carlton's ineptitude against them and lure Martin to the Dees.

    I think they needed pick 9 for papley. 

    Bad luck Carlton, you missed out on both.?

    True. But surely when it becomes obvious that deal is dead in the water you get something done.

    Apparently that report was incorrect and it was Martin and 15 for 9 and a future second. Which is fair enough to knock back.

    Martin for free would be a dream result, but you can bet Carlscum will do some salary\contract manipulation to scare us off

    Havent been around for the frenzy his arvo. Can someone explain his situation and how likely it is we’d be able to get him. Is he a chane to go through the National Draft or am I wrong in assuming that

    I think a lot people on here are trying to figure that out, GC intimated to the Blues that they would redraft him if the deal fell through so GC and Martin/his management will be the biggest obsticals. I'm not sure how it works with the draft, I believe he can nominate for either the National or the Pre Season Draft but who knows how it will play out from there.

    Let's not get too excited as of yet. Martin has to verbally say he wants to commit to us before he nominates for the pre season draft.

    He could also be delisted and be picked up as free.agent by the blues.

    I personally think that's pretty fair.

    That 2nd round pick will probably end up around 30.

    That would value Martin around pick 18.

    Even if the 2nd round pick is 25, it still values Martin around pick 15.

    I agree it's unlikely, but you never know.

    I highly doubt the Suns will re-draft him now.

    Surely there is zero reason for GC to do that, if they want to make him an example of a new found stoic nature with trading out their players they will make the route for Martin as difficult as possible. Otherwise what's the point of standing their ground at negotiations.

    • 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.
