Amazed that the Treloar deal didn't get done. 

It’s done to the dogs

    Looks like Caldwell and Cameron made it, but Treloar and Dunkley didn't.

    So glad the Dogs held on to Dunkley.  Still has two years to run on his deal and the Bombers were arrogant enough to just offer one first round pick.  Dogs stuck to their guns and they've now got two years to turn things around, which they are more than capable of doing.

    There was absolutely no way the pies and Treloar could have gone on next year

    Wow, so the Dogs' midfield next year will be Botempelli, Macrae, Hunter, Smith, Libba, Dunkley and Treloar.

    That is...insane.

    Plus Stefan Martin in the ruck to actually be a ruckman (improving on English).

    Apparently it did get done?

    I’m sure the AFL stepped in with Treloar, the CBA allows for grievances to be lodged but it sounds messy especially when so public.

    Well if we lose Oliver next year we'll be knocking on their door to land Dunkley.

    Dogs North and Hawthorn have taken advantage of the pies fire sale. Good on them. We’re done well overall, I’m not complaining but I can’t help feeling that’s we’ve missed a trick. Phillips for 65 was cheap as chips and he filled such an obvious need.

    Man Dunkley won’t be happy. And he’ll have even less midfield time now. Ouch

    I don’t know but I would guess the 500K for Phillips was the issue. Hawks have to pay the min cap but it would put us out of whack

    I wonder if it could have been us snatching Treloar at the death if we'd been able to offload Tom. Oh well, they say everything happens for a reason.

    Wonder if we can snare pick 13 from GWS for 19+28

     

    Go in with 13 and 18

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
