So many teams trading and here we are sitting on our hands. Classic Goodwin game day performance

You do realise we only have a future 4th round pick to trade?

List needs: 1. Small forward if we don’t go one at 10 2.  Key defender - especially if we see Petty as a forward  3. Lock down defender - Hibberd/Jetta replacement  4. Speed and cl

Trent Rivers is good mates with my brother, so I'm hoping he goes to the Dees. Unlikely he slips that far, but you never know. I'd also love Jeremy Sharp, reminds me a bit of Jayden Short which i

I really hope we get Darcy Cassar, great user of the ball and can find quite a bit of it, prefers getting the ball on the outside but is still a strong tackler, he's had a 41 disposal game in NAB League and already has a body thats ready for senior football.

I like it. He is a classy ball user and runner. Strong mid or half back.

I thought these picks were reviewable by the AFL at the end of next season, how can they trade it?

Looks pathetic by Gold Coast after they declined a similar pick for Jack Martin. 

It will survive purely as Geelong got it.

We had 3,10,28 and some in the 60s. Same amount of picks as most other teams.

Suns just traded 11 and 64 for 27! Ridiculous trade

It just shows that they are still incompetent and don't deserve the compensation that they got. They could have easily got this pick for Jack Martin. It's a disgrace.

They apparently received approval to trade it.

I think we all know the AFL "review" wasnt going to take picks off the Suns

Presumably they have a bunch of academy kids next year and are confident the AFL will give them some kind of free hit.  Provided their begging bowl is empty enough at the time.

Do you mean the approval to trade #11 when the AFL handed it out or do you mean they approved that ridiculously unbalanced trade with Geelong?

As part of the AFL package their Academy players don't go into the draft - ie they get them for no draft pick.

The former. Ridiculous trade, though.

The AFL won't do it but should be investigated as a totally unbalanced trade be it draft points or access to top talent vs taking leftovers later in the draft!

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    PODCAST: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits. I apologize for skipping our annual season review show at the end of last season. After a disapponting season filled with off-field antics and a heated trade week, I needed a break.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
