Daily summary ~

Matt Rendell says the Bombers need to pay up for Josh Dunkley. “When you're chasing a bloke that has two years left on their contract, then cough up. Don't stuff around! Cough up"

"Ben Brown has chosen Melbourne. The Dees have met with him, done a medical, and he will request the trade" - Sam Edmund

Jesse Hogan has officially requested a trade to the Giants. The Dockers will clear him.

Geelong a little surprised the Giants matched the Jeremy Cameron offer.

The Treloar saga continues. Nathan Buckley responded to Sam Edmund's report that the coach informed Adam Treloar senior players don't want him to return to the club.

St Kilda say they won't be trading their first-round pick in any potential trade for Brad Crouch.

    It’s a public holiday and things have been a little quiet today but there’s a lot happening in the background.

    Essendon and Carlton remain in a stalemate over Adam Saad on the eve of the 2020 trade period.

    Matt Rendell believes Collingwood is exploring the possibility of bringing in Tom McDonald from Melbourne.

    Speculation that St Kilda might be calling Adelaide’s bluff (the Crows have yet to match the Saints’ bid).

    The action should heat up a little bit when the trade period starts tomorrow at 9.00am.

    Speaking from Washington DC, President Donald J Trump has announced that unless North Melbourne completes the trade of Benjamin Brown to Melbourne by the time the ballots close in the western states, he will file a case in the Supreme Court of the USA to have the entire trade period declared null and void.

    Fake News. Trump would have either called North the Do-Nothing North Melbourne or the Krazy Kangaroos.

    This guy is unbelievable in his arrogance. 

    I don’t mind this as the first step in negotiation but his problem is he usually sticks to this and doesn’t end up getting a deal done. 

    Not bad for a bloke that has played about half a dozen mediocre games in 2 years

    Ahahahaha!

    He asks for proven players and first rounders. He asked for Butters!
    Imagine approaching a trade and saying we'll take that contracted 19 year old All Australian and give you an uncontracted 25 year old who's missed the better part of two years with injury and publicly wants out again.

    Dodoro is proper mental.

    They must be poorly paid at the bulldogs if that is a substantial increase on his current contract as has been reported. 

    Edit:  Browne's info suspect again!  Sam Edmond seems to have a better grapevine:  “The reason he is considering leaving - he’s been sold the massive midfield dream. The lure of that, plus a big contract that conservatively speaking is worth $700,000 a season and playing with his brother Kyle is unbelievable".  From Fox news.

    If I was Dunkley, I'd happily take unders to not play ruck

    I can’t Fanta-Seea that happening

    Fantasia’s main asset is his pace and has soft tissue issues. And desperately wants to leave the bombers

    pick in the 50’s would be about right

  • Quote

    Think it was Cal discussing the demons briefly just now on trade radio, largely about acquisition of brown and and how we plan to shape our forward line with the three talls. At the end of the discussion he mentioned that he expects us to haggle a little bit over Preuss to GWS and that because he's contracted we wouldn't be throwing him away for late picks. Suggested it could be pick 30, 43 or involving the pick they'll acquire from Hately.

    Collingwood list manager just said on trade radio that discussions surrounding Tom Phillips have been around his role at the club. No mention that he’s on the trade table.

    As I said in the Tom Phillips thread, my source has advised he isn’t going anywhere.

    goddam. just tuned in for the interview and its finished. must have got the time wrong. sure i heard 12.30 earlier. I'll look out for a report of the interview.

  • Quote

    I listened to the post interview discussion and fan call in which centred mainly on Stephenson.

    He didn’t disclose anything new regarding Treloar other than it’ll be difficult to bring players in unless he is moved out.

    Doesn’t sound like they are interested in TMac.

    No mention of Tom Phillips

    There was a reference to the first round pick being on the table. Didn’t catch whether this years or next.

    • CASEY: Geelong

      There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
