It would be no surprise for them to miss finals next year. And every single AFL player would know that.

They had a big year, like us last year they have gone deeper than previously, which is a challenge for youngish list and they had dream run with injuries. Not much has to go wrong for them to drop off.

I was about to post the same thing.

ofc people could counter that with their list, theres no way they will miss finals next year. but most of the footy world thought the same of us at the beginning of this season.

Not sure if Brissy will be better next year (and i predicted that they would have a good year in 2019), but i feel certain that we will be.

    Hawthorn's footy boss Graham Wright provides an update on Jamie Elliott, Jon Patton, Sam Frost, Issac Smith and more.

    So it's not just Demonlanders who can't spell "Isaac".  It's not rocket surgery, folks!

    Saving Face. No one wants to look like they've missed out on a potential recruit to Melbourne! Why that would be heresy!

    No way hes getting offered 500k at the pies. I reckon thats what we have offered that over 3 years with a trigger for a 4th.

    Effectively he will be taking on Jordan Lewis' Cash.

    How could Elliott possibly let everyone at Collingwood know he wont be their next year while he still has to attend their BnF.

    Can expect a decision next week.

    That didn't worry old mate Heretier. Not sure he had the last laugh as predicted though

    Not sure why Brisbane are interested, they have Cameron and Christensen so doesn't seem like a good fit there. Of course you always make room for quality but it just seems a bit odd.

    Jack Crisp just asked whether he thinks Elliott will stay l, on channel 10 news.

    Paused for a moment, then answered “yeah I think he will stay” then added that’s obviously the only answer he can give, before ending with “I hope he stays”.

    Hawks Officially Out. Trade Talks with Frost have just commenced as well.

    Huh?! But isn’t Clarke in charge of everything at Hawks?!

    Relevant here. 

     

    Exactly. They’re in for a world of pain with the huge contracts coming up next year. They need to clear room or lose a top 5 player essentially. Grundy, DeGoey, Moore. Clear others out now or you lose them next year.

    And as I said earlier, they’ve got an abundance of medium and small forwards, so Elliott is the perfect one to let go to free up coin without being impacted too heavily.

    so...............................Crisp may be gettable next year due to the devastation of possibly losing Elliott this year. Good to know!

    Looks like he's staying.

    Who do we turn our attention to now?

    "Insiders at Pies confident "

    Are they ever anything else.

    How could any Collingwood desired player ever wish to leave the bosom of the magpie nest for an also ran such as MFC.

    Play regularly before crowds of 70k plus diehard fans or go to the Alice and play a home game before a 10k crowd of which 60% or more barrack for the away team.

    Looks like Collingwood went for broke with the salary cap over the last 2-3 years in the hope of snagging a flag and then a core of players recommitting based on that success. If you don't get that success, you're in trouble.

    And Demonlanders bang on about our cap. I wonder what Collingwood supporters think (yeah, I know, not much).

    Improve the list, get fit, better draw, win games and the crowds will come. 

    In 2018 our avg home attendances was only 10,000 less than Collingwood's: 50k vs 40k. And we played less home games at the G than the Pies.

    It's starting to look that way, but I think if he was staying with the Pies the contract would've been signed in that meeting. If we don't hear anything tonight I reckon he's outta there.

    I reckon we'll land him. If what Barrett is saying is true RE: Collingwood's cap, they won't be able to compete with our offer.

    Agree that Collingwood can't beat the offer. I'm worried Elliott may have caved when he finally thought he was really going to be leaving the Pies.

    Or when he was offered a co host position on Getaway, after retirement.

    A Collingwood mate of mine is positive it will be announced at the Copeland tonight. He’s usually got good mail but has been wrong. Take with a grain of salt.

    • 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.
