Hawthorn out of the race according to 9 News 

They probably wised up to the fact that they are just being used as a pawn between his management and the Filth and didn't want to be made the fool.

Even then, did Frosty come out and request a trade to Hawks?

https://www.afl.com.au/news/2019-10-01/demons-big-improver-sam-frost-to-request-trade-to-hawks-after-contract-wait

AFL.com.au can confirm a report that Frost will request a trade from the Demons to Hawthorn.  

Says "will request", but also says its confirmed. Actually thought I'd heard it on the radio.....

That’s also what you want as a footy club, if you can push up a players wages/contract years that eats into the other clubs salary cap structure then even if you don’t sign said player it can be a bonus outcome.

Reports are that Hawthorn withdrew their offer. Hopefully this didn’t happen because of an issue with his medical (if he even had one).

The Richmond doctor was seen touring Waverley ...

Looks like Frost might end up staying with us then. 

I reckon Collingwood have offered Elliott two years and us three with an option of a fourth and if Collingwood budge to three years he’ll stay with them.

I don't think they will for 2 reasons. Firstly, they have an abundance of his type of player, so it wouldn't be the end of the world if he left. Secondly, they have too many stars that they need to re-sign next year.

They need the money for Grundy too

Given his history I think two is fair. Unfortunately given where we’re at we have to pay ‘overs’ to attract certain players.

Based on nothing but gut feel, I think Elliott to Dees will be one of the first papers submitted tomorrow.

Copeland trophy tomorrow night may stymie that.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
