What diabolical price will we have to pay?  Collingwood always try to bleed us dry and leave the leeches on just in case there is a little more blood left.

Langdon, Tomlinson and Elliot would be a huge trade period. 

If Frosty goes we will likely still hold picks in the first and second round to. 

Langdon = pick 20ish

I think he’s saying if Frost goes we will likely get a second rounder back.

 

I'd love Elliott to land at the Dees he is gun, don't worry about his injury history he will be a star for Elliott is exactly what we need. 


Yes yes yes to Elliot...

I just hope we try and bring in another small forward as well. Eg. Zac Langdon (trade) or Cody Weightman (Draft)

I like it

 

i like it a lot

Would take him in a heartbeat, but every chance he stays at the Pies for a lesser contract and a chance to have a crack at a flag.

Wont happen. Next.

I think it's a good move from the club, but I think he would be hard to pry out of Collingwood. Unless their offer to him is poor, or they decide they can't afford him, I'd be surprised if he made the switch. 

If he does decide to play for us then I think he would be a great addition to the side.

He'll have another crack at the flag with us.

Care to explain why it wont happen? 

Go MFC! Getting stuck into free agents and distracting the pies at the same time. 

Elliott 100% worth the risk. We would need to put him on at least 3 years to tempt him over though. Prob 4

The Pies might decide with his injury history that the free agent compensation might be more worth to them, our contract could go all the way up to an end of first round pick compensation. With Stephenson and De Goey they don't really need Elliott and they could use the money and draft pick to sign a key forward (still rumours of Pies in to Jeremy Cameron) or draft some midfield replacements. Not to mention Grundy is out of contract next year and De Goey as well. Wouldn't shock me at all if there's a price point with Elliott where they have to bow out.

We tend to sign injury prone players on long term deals so why stop now.

1. My gut feelings.

2. He wants to stay at the filth or so I am led to believe.

3. He is dangerously injury prone.

4. We are looking at Langdon and Tomlinson. How much coin is there to cover this. Elliot would want a gold nugget on his cake. Losing frost wont cover it and I don't think we should be getting rid of big name players.

Enough of them??

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
