He certainly has a little crush on Frost. 

And a solid hatred of MFC.

What would the Hawks give us?

Hawks have Pick 11,30,50,87.

Pick 30 is about right I think , 50 is Unders of the back of his 2019.

This is where Mahoney and co need to be smarter when discussing our own players during trade week. Talk them up even if you don't rate them helps drive up the price. We suck at this

Hawks have (or will) used 50 for Patton. How TF do they get away with this. 50 for Patton 54 for Scully. Both former no 1 picks. Un-**********Believable.

It's a salary dump by GWS. They have an abundance of young talent and even more to come through their academy.

They didn't need either, so the Hawks take on their salaries and get to give up very little in picks.

For what it's worth, Patton is around a B- level of player, if that so I'm not too fussed.

You are either under 14 or insecure.

I truly believe umpires have biases; but to put out there, that professional journo has a 'solid hatred' without foundation is overstepping the mark by a long way.

 

Barrett sticks his neck out, and will get it chopped off if he is proven wrong.  Supporters have to realise that the people that have constantly praised every decision that this football club has made over the past 50 years, might 'love' the MFC; but history has proven that they were mad.

Give me the person that has invariably criticised the club and its decisions for much of the past 50 years, before the fact, and I call him (her) Einstein.


Gone. Pick 42, 61, Future 4th and Frost for Pick 50, Future Second Round Pick.

Edited by AshleyH30

Deal Done

Frost& 42 & 61 future 4th

50 and Future 2nd.

Basically a second round pick for a depth player.

Big win for Mahoney

I have faith in Petty being able to cover lever as the intercept/ second tall - think a lot on here are underrating him :). But yes sad to see him go, hope we have fewer injuries next year.

Surely you jest?

Big loss for us.

If May and Lever can't get on the park again this year and O. McDonald becomes our main key defender then it will be a disaster.

Great result for culture.
If only you knew.

Very disappointing on both a rational and emotional level.

A failure of the coach and footy department.

So many reasons he should have been retained.  

I know not everyone is into the points like me, but with rough estimates of future picks etc this works out to us giving up Frost for pick 50.

 

Anyone got the points value of the trade? Future 2nd is obviously speculative, however I see Hawks being around that 6-10 mark next year


Think we got shafted again. Frost was improving as the year went on and we lose more leg speed.

This will give me great comfort when O. McDonald has five goals on him at half time on Ben Brown and May and Lever are sitting on the sidelines.

 

 

Future second for Langdon hopefully.

Wasn't asking for that much from what I heard.

And that's cancelled out by Langdon anyway.

  • 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.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
