He was definitely there, but the story Trade Radio went with was that the Director of Football was the only other employee in the meeting. No List Manager. If true what might that mean? Pies have made an offer and that's that?

What I have heard is that we came hard for Elliot but he's more likely to stay at Collingwood now as they've upped their offer due to rival interest and due to Wells retiring.

"I just went to have a chat with Walshy about a few changes happening ... I've got a few things happening in the next couple of days but hopefully (I'll stay at Collingwood)," Elliott said as he left the club on Thursday.

I don't really connect the two CBD.  Frost re-signing might somehow be linked to other deal/s or he just upped his price too high.  Or Goody & Co. just don't rate him.

My biggest concern would be, and i hope the talk / reports are incorrect, IF Goody &/or some within the FD believe O-Mac is depth and can cover off on the likes of Frosty (if needed).

Good luck to O-Mac at VFL level and hope he enjoys his footy there.  I'm sure he'll be fine outside of footy anyway with a Melb uni Bachelor of Science behind him once he graduates.  Smart cookie and could even go into golf if he wanted hitting off scratch.

OMac will play senior football next year. Happy to place an avatar bet on it.

That sounds like what someone who's leaving would say....

I'm still holding out hope as I think he'd be good for us, but everything I've heard is that he'll stay.

Combine testing is on at the moment, so I'd say the list manager would be there. Director of footy probably indicates more about trying to sell the club and comparing it to others. Good chance to come is what I've heard, we'll know by the end of Saturday.

Forgive me, but what is the importance of Saturday?

Unfortunately you are probably spot on Bin.  We are miles apart on how we see O-Mac and will never agree.  Quite possibly the Coach, some within the FD & angry bird still have wraps on him becoming a B+ or A grade backman.

A hangover from the Macca era where he went all in on his favorite boys prior to seeing how they might perform on the big stage.  Weid was another of those he thought would become a gun when he first arrived.  Talk about putting pressure on the poor buggers.  Just prep, train & let em play to their best....que sera, sera

Somebody wants Frosty...

Frosty apparently demanding $650k O Mac probably on $350k. If May and Lever play Hore can be the 3rd defender. I'd probably rather him in that role than Frost. Petty is building. O Mac fill in player if there's injuries .

I am a Frost fan, but if that is true, bye Sam.

Interesting. Wonder what happened, and after he requested a trade to them.

 

 

Did he? I can't find anything from him, his manager or Hawks

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

  • 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.
