I truly hope this doesn’t transpire. 

Me too, but we live in a world where it happens all the time.  

If it does transpire, then we need to get as much out of them as possible and run.

But... I don't really think it will happen in the end.

    I reckon it has also grown legs. People can say all they want about Mahoney saying there's nothing to it, but when there smoke there's fire.

    Surely Langdon and their first round pick maybe?

    There is always a trade than comes out of the blue, and this could be it. I woudnt want Gus to go, but if he wants to go, then we hold the aces, we get maximum for him, pick 6 & Langdon or we dont talk.

    I guess if it happens, then Gus has driven it. Who knows what it is a reflection of, it’d all be conjecture.

    Is it about the FD/Goodwin?

    Is it about family?

    Is he mates with Hogan?

    We will get something quite tasty back for him if/when he leaves.

    FWIW I actually love this time of year now, the capacity for many bigger names to move has never been like it in the history before - it’s quite enjoyable. And players shouldn’t and quite rightly are not beholden to ‘loyalty’ like every other industry on earth.

    To be fair, there isn't a whole lot in it at this stage.  I guess if Mark does get the CEO job then, we his both his father and brother there, he might have more reason to go over there.  

    However, with Gus under a long term contract, you would expect the club to ask for something very significant to let him go.  We hold all the cards in this one.

    Absolutely - especially as Langdon can walk to the PSD. You'd be asking for a Top 10 pick.

    I'd be asking for that at a minimum.  With three years left on his deal they will need to give us some seriously good picks/players for us to let him go.

    Gus doesn't strike me as a 'mummy's boy' and follow his family.  I think the Brayshaw's are made of sterner stuff.

    And, his partner is Danny Frawley's daughter Danielle.  A good reason to stay in Melbourne.

    I just want to see some year to year stability in the Demonland banner for once.

    The media really [censored] me with their drawing conclusions from absolutely anything.

    It's again a definite NO as far as I am concerned. Watched the Geelong final last night and he was outstanding - both inside and outside the contest.

    Seems odd for Freo to be coy to the media, and then say to Melbourne there is no interest behind closed doors.

    Cerra and Freo's future first rounder for Gus? Too high? Unreasonable? Gus has certainly shown a lot more than Cerra.

    This seems like a media beat up, but we need better ball users in our midfield mix. If we're not trading Viney, I'd look at Gus.

    It could be Bell playing funny buggers again, but you're probably right, implying that it's unlikely.

    Maybe I am a nerd, but I see language as important.

    Freo have no interest in the prising of him out, however Gus/his management may have approached them...

    Football is politics these days. Especially at this time of year, but you're probably right.

    If Brayshaw goes to Fremantle Peter Bell might get that feather in his cap that he keeps banging on about.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
