We can’t even attract a 32yo with a 3 year deal vs 2 from the cats???

it does fit the narrative that some people on here are finding hard to swallow. 

Don’t listen to the haters @Dr evil, things change. I’m sure you’re aware of the trade that’s about to break. Actually I wouldn’t say break.....I’d say.....blown apart. 

 

Rory Atkins to the Suns at $400000 and 3 years another winger move.


Think Andy will have his finger hovering over the 'delete post' button here for a while!

Keep posting evil doctor. Great that you can take it in your stride and not throw the toys out of the cot, unlike some others. Its certainly been a fun couple of days in this thread 

Youll get more hits than miss, I reckon

4yrs*

At the end of the day player at club who came 15th decides to leave them, has offer from team that came 9th but signed for team that made the Grand Final. 

Back to the drawing board for that wing spot

I stand corrected?

Honestly if we gave him a longer deal and he chose to run to an easy option in Geelong thinking he can sneak in another meaningless premiership, so be it. I wish him luck, and have zero interest in players like him. 


Yep confirmed campaigner.

I like to set a good example for the more short tempered of us moon!

How many of you think the Jordan Lewis trade was a success? For mine, it was largely a waste of time. Anything he might have done for culture was countered by him doing all of [censored] all on the field for three years, and was even one of our worst in the 2018 finals series which was one of his selling points at time of trade.

Not upset about missing Smith, but that's simply untrue about Lewis. 3rd and 10th in the Bluey in 17 & 18, and was one of our best in the first 2 finals (with an all time shocker against the eagles in the prelim). I don't understand the hate on here.

At least give us a riddle.


@Dr evil won't be the first and last who gets it wrong. What I do hope is that it won't be the last that he posts info that he has.

You just keep feeding those Rumours doc.

Appreciate that dazzle. Apologies for the disappointment I’ve caused to any posters. its a strange time of the year

As to the Doctor: the issue I have is not that he passed on news that we were in the box seat for Smith, but that he passed on news that he'd already signed (the Doctor was adamant it had happened). If he's going to Geelong, clearly the Doctor's mail on Smith was incorrect.

This is what I was pointing out yesterday.

I don't understand many posters. 

It's obvious to me that unless you've seen the signed contract with your own eyes, why on earth would one ever set themselves up in the way that @Dr evildid by making ultimatums?

@Dr evil deserves what has come on this site because of poor word choice. 

Nothing more nothing less. 

Hopefully a lesson learnt for the future pal.

Yep, I'm more interested in the guys with character who are ready for some pain, but also excited about what they can help build. A premiership with us would be wayyyyy more rewarding than having to deal with Scott and his merry band of circle jerks.

Apologies? Mate, you're not supposed to apologise when you get it wrong on Demonland. You should be making excuses and covering your tracks!

BTW, I knew you were wrong all along. Smithy told me last week

It was a rookie error by Evil to be so adamant re his mail.

Always leave yourself some wriggle room.

As for Geelong ?  Was it the oldest GF team in history ?  And they're just getting older with Higgins and Smith.  Somewhat baffling.

Oh how I'd love to beat them in a final again at the G in 2021 and watch Smith trudge off.

Consider the toys out of the cot moon. Speak to you in two weeks. 

The club was bonkers for offering a 3 year contract to a 31 year old. surely the club has learnt through players like jetta and mcdonald that the end comes quickly. i'm stoked we didn't get Smith.

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • 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?
