    Brisbane have pick 18 and 19. My guess is we will do 25 + future first for 18 + future first with Brisbane betting they will finish higher then us.

     

    Maybe throw in a future 3rd rounder we got from bulldogs for good measure.

    Apparently us and Brisbane in talks about a future pick swap.

    Just to go with this - apparently our future first is in play, so you would expect Brisbane's first and something else might come up.

    Don’t we need a future second to trade our future first?

    Could be 18 and future second for 25 and a future first. 
     

    We’d be taking a big risk to do that

    If this is just a pick swap it doesn't need to occur today does it?

    Don't think so

    Yes, that makes it interesting. Does it mean we're looking for an earlier pick to use on trading in another player?

    Only other players I've heard through this week connected to us are Polec or T Phillips. This deal doesn't sound like one that would be relevant to either of them.

    I think you can swap picks on draft night, not to sure about after the trade?

    wtf are we playing at??

    Brisbane will trade picks 18, 19 and a future second to Melbourne for a future first-rounder, 25, 68 and 69

    Good move I reckon.  Backing themselves to improve and now have 2 first rounders this year

    Seems strange that we're doing this all now and not after the conclusion of trade period tonight? Really seems like we're up to something.

    Yes don't worry, I have faith! Let's see if any late trade goes down too?? Also looks like we need to revisit the draft thread to see who's available thereabouts

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

    • GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
