I like it, we need the run but equally we need the experience and on field leadership. they can have their future second rounder back for him.

or pick 8 for Smith and 11

So now Melbourne have picks 3 and 8 in this year's draft after pick swap with North. Do the Demons have an ace up their sleeve for a player trade we haven't heard about?

Ah yes. The basket case is pulling aces again. Thanks potato.

So assuming we take Hayden Young and cody Weightman in the draft, our best 22 for Round 1 could look something like this:

B:       Jetta               May                  Lever

HB:    Young             Petty                Hibberd

C :      Langdon         Viney               Salem

HF:     Petracca        McDonald       Melksham

F:       Fritsch             Weideman      Weightman

R:      Gawn               Oliver               Brayshaw

Int:    Tomlinson       Harmes          Hannan        VandenBerg

Emg:  Preuss            O McDonald       Neal-Bullen       Hunt

How the hell do we land him? Is he an FA or do we need to pull a pick out of our [censored]?

Would love him for the record. @Patches O’houlihan is spot on. Not only does he still have something to give a team like us, his experience and leadership would be invaluable for our team that so desperately lacks it.

Maybe 8 for Smith and 11?  That also takes the risk of McGuinnes being bid on early for the Hawks

And Frosty could be the steak knives!  Joking...

Deals not done: Daniher, Papley, Martin.

Carlton miss out on Oakley and Martin. Only bring in Betts.

I think Ross Oakley is well past it anyway.

Very surprised the Giants couldn't get a deal done for pick 3. I find it hard to see them satisfying us with the picks they have, so not sure what the point of trading up to 6 was about.

Disappointed we didn't pick up a key forward, but I'd be interested to see what list spots we will have available post the draft, perhaps there's a delisted free agent or rookie we are looking at.

So much for Dorodo's big man talk that Essendon would 'hit the trade period hard'.  He likes to win the battles but ends up losing the war.  They gained Tom Cutler and Andrew Phillips and their first draft pick is #31. 

Carlton have also come away empty handed (well they have favourite son Eddie back).

Big trade fail for both clubs.

Hard to see either team improving much next year. :blink:

Apparently we're drafting 2 kids, both going by the name Basil, with our 2 first rounders.

As long as neither of them is fawlty.

Good going

Is Martin a PSD chance?

Agree that we've done well, happy we held our nerve and didn't swap #3 with GWS.

Could also nominate for national draft

Sun's could easily just delist Martin and Carlton take him as a delisted free agent.

So we head to the draft with picks 3, 8 and 97.

Think we'll keep 3 unless GWS come to us with an offer we can't refuse on draft night. With 3 I think Young has more upside, could play wing/hbf next year.

Using 8 on Weightman seems a big reach when most phantoms have him in the 15 - 30 range and one of Ash, Stephens, Kemp or Flanders will likely still be available.

wonder who we will use 97 on.

Why would that do that when the were at an impass at the trade table? 

Even if they (and us) have no intention in taking him in the PSD they should make them squirm a bit

  • Thank You Simon Goodwin

    As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

  • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

    Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

  • REPORT: West Coast

    The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

    With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
