apparently is happy with Brisbane's recent offer. Again, Carlton and North are the two clubs that have shown interest.

We would be absolute crazy to at least enquire.

Do you mean we would be absolutely crazy to at least not enquire?

I wouldn't even consider it tbh. I LOVE him, but the amount he would require financially is much more needed elsewhere currently, not to mention the trade currency needed that I wouldn't think we would have.

My shopping list would be: 1. Jezza Cameron (followed by Casboult then Daniher pending acceptance)

Just like Jezza and Daniher. They too will command big money.

And yes I did mean that lol

having now read the article, presuming you mean <insert emoticon for recycling cardboard boxes>

Holy chit if this bloke is available then get him! He would dominate in our chitful forward line.

The blue print was to be challenging for flags in 2020, would he help us do  that moving forward?

If we had anything left cap wise after chasing a gun key forward I would then put the house on Charlie, but for me, 100% key forward first.

small forwards are the new key forwards

I would go after Daniel Talia,  if I wanted quick effect, and had dollars.

 

But, that would put too many players in our older age bracket.

So I hope we draft a mobile key back.  193 - 194cms, quick agile and skilled.

we don't need another 29 year old key defender

Isn't Talia more a defender? Haven't followed him, super closely tbh.

Yes he is. An old fashion lock down defender.

Bizarre suggestion by MFM to be bluntly honest.

Key back? What?

Yes,  I agree. He is.  But the type of player is what we lack.

I wouldn't sacrifice for the quick effect,  'wwsw'.

Yes, actually in under 18's he was a winger, in the match at the Dome.

To me he was the standout from those I saw that year u18's...  but only saw him in one game.

 

Can he play forward, interesting.

I was trying to make the point that our defence still needs another gun tall,  so that Lever plays 3rd tall or small.   But Talia is too old for our defensive mix.

He and May would finish at the same time which isn't good. 

Although May can play forward as well.?

Didn't Polec leave Brisbane to go home to SA? Money talks

We've got young forwards, and older,  but we have nothing in the pipeline Re tall backs.   Once may is done, were stoofed.  If Lever gets hurt, were stoofed.

 

It's CHB we need mostly from the draft this year.

 

But I would go after Fogarty hard,  as a trade hopeful.   He reminds me of a bigger Glenn Archer, a key position Archer.  Brick walls beware.

And he could hit the midfield as well, imo.

I would chase him till the cows come home.  Small POWER forward.   193cm  94Kgs  21Yr  old.

And he would compliment a 200+ cm big forward.

Ffs I would love a thread that isn't just clogged up with mess by the same certain individual every single time.

Started a Charlie Cameron thread, turns into how we need a Daniel Talia in our side.. because you know he's the missing link to our success....

Story by Tom Brown...not Mr. Reliable 'dazz'. 

I wonder what Brown's average is this year? Just about everything he's thrown up has been thrown out.

I would expect Cameron will be well looked after by Brisbane.

They would be mad to let him go but if he wanted to move I'm sure we would welcome him with open arms.

I can't see Cameron leaving unless it's for crazy money, and I can't see us affording to pay him crazy money whilst offering an attractive team to join.

We've got a very expensive midfield and a lot of cash locked up in two tall defenders. And no first round pick.

I'd imagine we're looking around the key forward market but otherwise we'd be shipping out a lot of players and turning over the list dramatically to bring Cameron in. Worth a phone call and to find out what Brisbane are offering, but if North and Carlton are already involved then I'd imagine it's at the silly money level already.

Could very well be just the standard player manager ploy we see about this time every year to ensure a fat contract...

 

Getting back to Charlie Cameron, I wouldn't trust the reason anybody puts forward publicly for leaving Adelaide. He may well have wanted a trade "home" to Brisbane, but looking at the [censored] show that is Adelaide, and the way they hung Lever out to dry, you're always going to float a reason that is least likely to rile those in Adelaide when you're at the departure lounge. So I wouldn't automatcally assume he's not gettable.

That said, I'd rather we put the money into a KPF however.

  • 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 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.
