Nothing to fall out over. One of the reasons people become friends is because they like the same things.

There’s more to it than eyes for the same girl, including some unwanted advances. They did fall out over it and it was one of the main reasons Langdon wanted out of WA.

Blakely is a pass or Langdon walks.

Fair enough then, all jokes aside. No means no.

Assume primary list reduces from 44 to 42 , with Bradtke additional and retained as a Cat-B rookie  

outs. Cwagner JWagner Dunkley Bennell and probably Chandler

Trade Outs. Tmc, OMc, Hannan, Preuss  

Retain  KK (on list but paid out for 2021 season) Jones Jetta  Nietschke moves to rookie list  

Trade ins. Ben Brown, Isaac Smith, Tom Phillips, Quinton Narkle 
 

Retain 3 draft picks.

Why keep KK on the list if we have paid him out? What’s the benefit for both him and us?

My understanding is that you then get access to the doctors, services, support etc. from the AFL and football club. It is a right thing to do, rather than the smart thing to do by the sounds of it. But everything is speculative.

It's usually more about the salary cap isn't it? Delist him and the pay out has to go in this years cap. Keeping him on the list a portion of it can go in to next years. Plus he can go on the non active list and be replaced by a rookie over summer that doesn't go against the cap.

Yes KK would be inactive and immediately replaced on the list by a rookie eg Lockhart for them to play

u don't need to be replaced to be able to play as of a couple years back, only applies to cat b rookies, now u get to add players to ur list to replace long term injuries and inactives hence why we signed dunkley in the mid season draft. cat a rookies can play from the get go

With Footy officially finished for the year I am guessing trade talks will really ramp up.

Brown and smith are coming, hind I think will as well, and there are two other players who’d walk into our best 22 that haven’t been mentioned on here that I’ve been asked not to name. But I’m sure demonlanders won’t complain when the names are revealed. 

we’re desperate to get young macrae through the door.
 

looking at a similar restructure to our list as the saints had last year introducing a lot of speed to their side

I'm really enjoying your posts mate, but just be a little careful what you do reveal on here as the journos do read Demonland.

I've heard everything you've heard, but posting things like the Macrae stuff could actually jeopardise the club's hand a little bit. It's been mentioned a few times already on Demonland so it's probably fine now, but let's hope we can land him.

Anyway, each to their own. ?

Understand what you’re saying mate! My general rule is if it’s been posted previously it’s fine to mention it. 

If you’re talking Finlay Macrae, I don’t see what the issue is discussing a potential draftee. Thanks @Dr evil for the info, have the two other potential players who would be best 22 been discussed on here?

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
