Tomlinson is cr@p. Marks the ball, a million decisions go through his mind so he freaks out and kicks it long down the line everytime. will definitely slow down our ball movement.

no idea why we aren't interested in Papley. he is exactly what we need. exactly.

Here’s how I think this is going down.

GC will get the priority pick and 2 becomes 3, not ideal but they probably need all the help they can get just now. Anderson is out of reach and so we do the following:

Langdon for pick 21

Tomlinson as FA

option 1 (left field): We get Jamie Elliot as FA and we take pick 3 to the draft for Young

option 2: We trade 3 to GWS for 12 and 15 and go for players like Ash and Cody Weightman. 

IMO Ash wont be there at 12, he is a bona fide top 10 pick. I think we need Lachie Young, but i feel like we are going to split the pick, so we are going to get 2 players. Jamie Elliott will not leave the pies and the Pies wont let him, they have invested so much in him, thats a pipe dream.

You've never seen us go down the wrong rabbit hole before Dr.?

You may well be right; however, it IS pipe dream season.

True, shoot for the starts, why not!

I am sitting a long way from the corridors of power in the MFC but even I hear a few whispers now and then.

 

Not really earth shattering or anything new. Langdon is an all but done deal unless a wrinkle develops. We are in the mix for Tomlinson with"what is being termed "a better than even chance."

We have also had advanced talk with a forward that has been linked to a trade with the Saints.This rumour is very flimsy and there does not seem to be much to it so I will not pass on any further details at this stage.

If it's for Paddy McCartin, I'm out a here

I know it's still early, but there's a distinct lack of riddles in the last 24 months. 

Do better, Demonland.

Ben King has been linked to the Saints... I suspect we have an interest also.

Ben King

I hope we snaffle up Ben King. Fingers crossed we've advanced talks further.

I reckon Ah Chee from Suns and Ellis Yolman are worth a look. 

They can't be any worse then the likes of Stretch, ANB, JKH etc

Also by getting Langdon via trade, Tomlinson as a FA and one or 2 more FAs enables to keep pick 2/3 or try upgrade.

Not too bad without costing much at all

Yep, Ellis Yolman has pace and could be handy on the outside. Ah Chee, likewise.

Maybe we have expressed interest in Papley, who knows? It was reported some kind of  clause was triggered in his contract and it now runs until 2023 and there were rumours the Swans could ask for 2 first round picks (which sounds ridiculous to me) from the Blues. If those reports are accurate, would we be willing to part with something that high for Papley? 

What do ‘landers think he’s actually worth?

You and me both Moony. 

The talk of Papley got a top 10 pick is ridiculous. He’s good but not that good. The fact he’s contracted for a few more years might mean a desperate club could offer it.

Agreed. Our bottom 6 players who are regularly getting a game are poor, it’s about upgrading these types for better ones. Not every trade is about getting in a star or someone who is going to (potentially) be one.

100%..  thats why Tom cutler should be on our radar, wont cost alot but is better then the bottom 6. refresh the depth, and inject a couple "need players" and get some kids.

Agree D3. We know what our bottom 6 are capable of (not much), time to bring in some unknown quantities and see if we have some luck.

Would pretty much make the off season. We need goal scoring power. We need quality smalls. We need marking options. He’s all of the above.

We should be loading up ok free agents, as they cost us nothing in terms of draft picks and we’ve traded away all our first rounders for years on end now.

To add Elliott and Tomlinson without giving up any picks would be huge for the club. Add in Langdon for a second round pick and that’s a very successful off season to balance out list and add mature talent.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

    It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
