Might be worth having a chat to Mitch Lewis at Hawthorn, seems on the outer and might be unhappy.

    Irrelevant, he won't be going anywhere.

    Well that shows  up the Club thinking.  Ageing player, has some currency, and wont be considered for a trade.

    he's also a free agent, so it's out of our hands to a greater / lesser degree

    Didn't realize 26 was an ageing player, let's trade out all our players over 25 and we can concentrate on becoming a kindergarten club.

    I think it shows up your thinking.

    you say he's an ageing player but a more positive thinking person would say that he's now coming into his prime years. you said he was of limited currency before ('would only bring a second rounder'), but you'd still wish to trade an ex captain of our club, our current VC and a guy who was our best player 2 games ago for what, a second round pick?!

    to me your thinking sounds overly negative, disloyal and confused.

    Petty and Sparrow are 2 players I would have in the starting 18. To trade off would be stupid. There are plenty of other dead cattle at Melbourne.

    I know it's early but I thought it would be a little fun to predict trades, promotions and delistings.

    Makes good sense, provides potential benefits and skills, keeps those in the picture keen and somewhat responsible towards the Club. I'd retain Hunt - seldom played in his most valuable position under Goodwin - he's a forward on the run, leading, and we know he can kick 'em.

    Well, to start with I was not the one to bring up Vineys name. I merely said or infered that strong Clubs make impartial decisions on who and when to trade players.  You dont agree, good for you but to bring up the disloyal card just shows your thinking is still back in the glory years of the early 60s.

    We have a lot of fringe players. Our elite players don’t perform consistently. Brayshaw has had some great games in the past but has underperformed for two years.

    Are we still giving our first pick to North? No doubt they'll find somebody fantastic with it even if there's not one Under 18 game played.

    what about Schache from Dogs? Isn't getting a game at the moment and if he added some size he could be handy 

    how is he different to the weed tho?

    good tall at junior level who at senior level isn't mobile enough, skilled enough, hard enough, so basically has to be the part time forward / ruck role

    I think Weed should be playing and not sure why he isn't - showed signs early and although he had a down year last year so did 3/4 of the side

    Fwds take time and I think our coaches are being pretty impatient with him. I must admit it was foolish of whoever came out and said he is worth $650k a year as it might of got to his head/a target on him/internal pressure

    But I want to see him back in the side, fwds are a commodity and we don't have too many rn

    The crows must have something we want.   Laird is too small to replace Nev, imv.

    Lets start to get into Fogarty.

    It almost looking like selection this year,  after maybe some footy-dept changes,  that players now have to demand a game by crashing the selection room door in.!

    fogarty just did his shoulder unfortunately

    he might be another in a long list of player's whose body is simply not made for the rigours of afl-level football

    If we can't get anyone I'm happy to take what little we have to the draft and try and move up somehow

    Our recruiting has been very good last few years so I'm happy to back them in again

    We don't want list cloggers

    • 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?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
