Ben Brown thread on Demonland site to go over 120 pages. Still a few weeks to go 

But only about 5 pages of that is actually useful information.

 

Our own Lachie Hunter thread has understandably gone cold.  Heard he might be seriously considering the warmer climate with a 2020 Preliminary finalist.  He is a gun player, no doubt, and will be only 26 yo when the 2021 season starts.

If it's the Suns, then it makes sense why they are not interested in the expensive Treloar.

Not a Preliminary finalist ... implication is Brisbane.

Sorry didn’t see Preliminary Final mentioned. Just assumed Suns as that was the rumoured likely destination.

This is absolutely rumour only but my Geelong contact reckons they have been in constant dialogue with Alex Rance for several months. Shaun Grigg is the conduit. Rance is currently living in Portarlington and keen to have another crack in the AFL.

Could be complete BS as the text I saw claims interest in Isaac Smith is only a smokescreen...

I have heard whispers of a possible trade.

Nothing confirmed ( a long way from it) and information is very thin. I did hear it from two different people.

TMac/VdB packaged with a 2nd round (this year or next) for their first round 2020.

No idea where this originated.

For who's first? GWS or Essendon?

With which club?

That would value both players as only a few spots upgrade in the draft. Obviously if true, a player hoped for in the draft and salary dumping.

Sorry.

 

The club I heard involved was GWS

That would be Williams compo pick 10? Adelaide have GWS's first round pick 9

Or the Cameron one

Would be a shame to lose AVB but I would take that deal and run

I wonder how much of the salary we’d be taking into next year for the package

Need 10 or lower to get McCrae  if that's the target.

Cameron might get matched, in which case Cats may meed to give up 13, 15 and maybe 20. Or a 3 way deal, eg cats get Jezza, GCS get 13, 15 and 20 (which will get pushed out further with academy bid matching), GWS get 5

Daniher at pick 7 is a joke. Cameron is worth 5, easy.

i imagine AVB is on decent coin coz sydney offered him the same length deal at the time iirc?

with jones going on, already a stacked midfield and sparrow and jordon pushing through i have no issues with him leaving and we all know where we stand with tmac, but giants dont seem too keen? favouring jesse

5 and change I would have thought. Cats got two 1st rounders, p24 & p37 for Kelly, p57 & a ‘20 third round pick in return. Cameron is getting close to a mill a year with a trigger for 6th year. The length of deal probably means they could match as there’s theoretically room to load in back end of deal.

A fun read!

I like this time of year when the rumours run thick and fast.  Whilst I’m sure many/most won’t pan out, none of them seem outside of the realms of possibility.

Sounfs like Sydney are very keen on getting a tall forward in.

Is that because buddy is fading fast?

Would be surprised if he went across the other side of the country, being a local boy, unless there are no other offers.

Allir allir off to the Dogs I’m hearing 

Wow, would be a decent pick up for the dogs.

Any other info you're heading @demons11. Any word on Brodie Smith? or other tid bits you got?

I am assuming our moves will be based on if Tmac stays or goes?

If you’re asking questions and want serious answers, might I suggest that you don’t ask on a strictly rumour thread.

I get your point,

but I am not asking for fait accompli information, I am interested if there is anything @Demons11 has heard around the traps

  • 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.
