Alex Keath for a third rounder and we’ll throw in a fourth rounder for them to keep Gibbs.

I just got this. Very good Moon, very good.

@Moonshadow was subtle but loaded with innuendo.  I also thought it was very clever.  Right up there with his #gettherabbit post re Coniglio.

You could buy fairy floss at the Melbourne Show much, much cheaper.

And it would be far more satisfying! As SOFT a player as I can remember!

Really PF. I can think of a past Melbourne player who may have him beat.

I actually regret posting that PF as I didn't mean it to be a 'click bait' comment. I think Cale had his moments.

Is it his fault Melbourne could not build a body on the skinny player we recruited as a high pick.

I actually thought Morton was a good smart player early days. Knew where to run and always created an option, he was ignored a lot of times. That’s exactly what he’s doing there, the video just makes it look like he’s playing chicken. 

In terms of his development, I don’t know, another wasted pick.

He was ignored a lot of times, because that's what happens when you call for it from the car park outside the ground!

What a wasted pick!

If he was actually a good kick (as was advertised pre-draft), he might have made it despite his flaws.

for pick 88 and they pay 60% PLUS of his wage you would consider it, but he went back to SA for family , not money. I very much doubt he will  come back to Vic to play. Why would he when he is getting paid serious coin there to play in SANFL

It'd be the equivalent of the NBA salary cap dump, David King wrote an article this week about selling draft picks in the future, but this is an area I think the AFL might actively get behind first. They might encourage older players on big coin to go to developing clubs while freeing up cap space of the club they are leaving.

It also doesn't show that Cale realised we had won possession of the ball, ran forward to make position, received the pass and kicked it to one of our forwards who duly converted for goal.   Not saying Cale was a tough man, but this clip misrepresents what actually happened in that piece of play.

Spot on! I reckon many on DLand would be aware of those facts. It's akin to trolling to put that clip up and perpetuate the misrepresentation of Cale and the reality of that incident.

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    PODCAST: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
