Hoping the Dees interest in Brayden Maynard has substance. 
 

Otherwise I think Ed Richards at the Bulldogs should be worth looking at.  Good skilled midfielder wingman type. Left footer.  Dogs has surplus of his type and he’d be a good addition at the Dees. Injured for first half of 2021 but should be back in next few rounds.  

Posted in another thread that we have, alongside a number of clubs, met with Richards management. He certainly seems as though a realistic target. The less he plays the more likely he is on the move.

    Ben Ainsworth.  Unbelievable that he can’t get a game for the Suns. I have only seen a few games but he is strong, good kick for goal, good overhead and has skills. Not sure if it’s his workrate or simply that Suns are preferring to push Flanders and Rankine ahead of him.

    Any chance we could snatch Tanner Bruhn out of the giants?

    Too soon. Plus another Geelong boy that they will try to grab in a few years.

    Would try to angle for an Angus Brayshaw for Cerra trade. 
     

    Cerra plays the wing better and Jordan/Sparrow clearly ahead of Brayshaw on the inside now.

    You’d probably need to chuck in our 2022 first rounder as well for that to happen.

    Have heard from a normally reliable source that Brayden Maynard is a certainty to be a Dee next year?

    This is fremantle we are talking about. With there trade history they will be throwing there 22 first rounder back our way with Cerra

    Maynard would be a nice Hibbo replacement but surely we go after some form of point of difference....another fast winger, damaging medium sized forward

    Brad Hardie isn't renowned for being reliable :-)

    I hope you are right. I would love to see Maynard to play for Melbourne next season. I wonder if the new appointment will be the difference of him staying or leaving.

    Very, very average IMO and certainly a missed top 10 pick there.

    Don't know.

    But Collingwood have every right to ask for a late 1st rounder. 

    Can't really say I believe this story as I think it really is Brad Hardie going on one of his drunken antics.

    But Maynard would be a massive massive recruit for us. I rate him extremely highly.

    With you Dazzle, if the Pies agreed to less than a first rounder i'd be worried they knew something we didn't.. 

    he's a gun, and would cover the loss of Hibberd when he retires perfectly, but i'd imagine we'd have to be very crafty at the trade table to get it done.

    Billing’s anyone? 

    Doesn’t have much dog in him so can’t see it happening, I’ve always thought in a strong side, as an icing on the top player, he could be very good

    I think our focus needs to be around developing a key tall by trading into the top 10 or seeing if there are any still very young outside the box types at state level ... Weid looks like he won't make it and tmac and BBB will do the job but won't be around in about 3 years when our youthful mids in Trac, Oliver, Jordan, Harmes, Brayshaw are still running rampant through the middle

    Solid mail Cerra will be a Tiger next year.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • 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.
