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.

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.

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.

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.

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

    2024 Player Reviews: #18 Jake Melksham

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The move of “Disco” to a key forward post looks like bearing fruit. Turner has good hands, moves well and appears to be learning the forward craft well. Will be an interesting watch in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.
