Interesting...

I'm torn as to whether he would actually improve us. He'd probably compete with Weideman for the second forward spot. I guess it's a depth thing as well.

Depends on the price, I guess. 

Its Not as if Weeds is a proven consistent performer as yet. He has time but would love another Tall, Would take any of in preferential order Gunston, Casboult, Jenkins easy!

Talk he might be off to the Bombers now!

I wonder if the rumour re listed to Cox but the destination club was muddled.

I don't want Cox (leave it alone ds)

For anyone wondering the key forwards of any interest that come out of contract at the end of next year are:

Ben Brown

Ben King

Brody Mihocek

Jeremy Cameron (RFA)

Mason Wood (RFA)

Patrick McCartin

By no means the full list as at trade time anyone and everyone seems to be gettable regardless of contract. Pretty slim pickings if you ask me, and I’m of the view that Cameron wont leave the Giants. The interesting ones are King and Brown which could definitely be gettable

I am excited by the player, he is not a battler, but a player who has kicked quite a few goals against us (but thats not hard as we have always allowed players to kick modern day bags of 4-5 against us!).

I gather you have no more news as yet.

Gunston?

Breust or gunston  both make sense. Good kicks. Hawks have recent history of moving long term players on. Are rebuilding. And maybe keen in frost. Straight swap?

Same.  Might explain why the offer was never tabled to Frost (as of yet anyway).

Yoko was spot on more than once in 2018 when it came to team changes. Would post them well before the official announcement, if it’s the same source there could well be something brewing here. That’s my belief anyway dd.

I don’t know why he can’t just name the player. 

It better not be Mason Cox after Basil Mason (the writer) or Mason Basil (the way hipsters grow Basil), I’ll throw up.

How dare you accuse someone on the site of making up stuff ?

I will ease your minds and say it isn’t Cox or anyone from that club!

However, I do have a very good source and I am glad some people remember my team announcements in previous years!!

I just haven’t been on the site much this year, as I honestly couldn’t sit through most of the rubbishy being written on here!

it was bad enough watching us play, but rewind stuff on here just made it worse!!

As I said, I promised my source I wouldn’t name the player, but he is from a club that are possibly needing to shed some players or $$ this trade period.

I would like it to be membrey or Bruce, as I know they always beat us, but it isn’t. 

As I said, you will be surprised!!

Casboult? Surely the Blues, with Betts (albeit not with a ton for them to pay), Papley and Martin all on the way in need to make some space. Also been some (internet) rumours they may chase Gaff, so they will need to be cutting back elsewhere. They've delisted/retired 6 players and already have 3/4 coming in pre-draft, so may need list spots too.

Hawkins 

I hope not. Or hope so. I'm not sure. 

Gunston? 

Clues:

  • A key forward (are correct to assume a big?)
  • Victorian club
  • But not pies
  • And not membrey or Bruce
  • A club who needs to shed some players or $$ this trade period
  • Would be a surprise

Cats might be looking to make a play for Cameron with Kelly’s compensation. 

Think they’ve tried before... 

Hawkins does perform well against us, and, being a Cat through and through, it would surprise. 

If I’m right, and I’m usually not, I don’t think I’d like it.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.
