Lots of "no" there. Who should we be going after?

Going by Goat's attitude, he will want us to chase prime Wayne Carey and then blame the club when we can't do it.

    If we are trying to create a sustainable culture then we shouldn't be going for any players that have a checked past & especially players that are over 28. Youth.....

    Cut & dry for me.....not sure if that's right but we are not good enough to exercise the risk involved.....IMO

    Risk? We'd be picking him up for next to nothing on a 1 yr contract - if he never plays a senior match, what exactly have we lost?

    There's a bloke playing full forward for Geelong with a chequered past, over 28, who i think we would chase.........

    Still didn't answer "who" specifically we should be going for.

    is brown still a go if we go after Jackson in the draft?

    Yes. Preseason or rookie, I would think.

    We cannot put all hopes in 18 yr olds, to perform from day 1.

    Well clearly youth which would involve pick >100 in the ND 

    Mitch Brown would be on base payment circa $180k for a depth type game player. But his 2019 again showed he can play and strongly contribute.  Bargain for money imo. 

    Not against it good insurance and may actually be good alongside weid and tmac to take off pressure

    Yeah decent back up pick up for free. Much better than Jenkins so I'm okay with it.

    I wonder what the world record for picking up delisted free agents are in one year, benell, Murray and brown haha

    I think we pulled out. No idea why or even exactly when, it was buried in a few other articles about a week ago.

    Smart move to have him train on especially whilst Petty and Weideman aren't at full fitness and whilst the odds of Bennell are still heavily against Harley getting through preseason yet alone playing games.

    I'd invite a bunch of players to train and see who demands a list spot.

    Could be a bit like Cam Pedersen and also can go back in defence.

    Handy depth who will give his all if we take him as a rookie.0

    I think this is very shrewd business by the MFC. Can't lose on this one.

    • 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?

      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.
