    Hi all. I can now report that Sam Weideman has been traded to Essendon. We're still a big shot at Hunter and we've discussed trading for a KPF. Few big hours coming up. ✌️

    37 is better than I expected. Pretty happy with that result. It’s not like Weid was going to play.

    We have got that Petty option, I'm in the camp that he saves more goals than he can create. But it's definitely an option with Tomlinson and Turner in the wings.

    I think we need to see where TMac and BBB are at over summer and leading into next year.  We probably need 2 of TMac, BBB and JVR available each game for the next 2 years.  If we get 100 games out of the 3 of them across that period then Petty can stay back.  I should add that we need to recruit another ready to go KPF by the end of that period - I think that's possible - we can clear cap with outgoing players and we have a strong future draft hand.

    Yeah, we can always leave a spot open for a mature ruck at the start of the season.

    Please tell me your sauce is credible.

    Speaking of pick 37. Harrison Petty says hi. 

    Talent to be found around these picks for sure.

    Have always liked the Weed and would like to wish him well but it's tough when he's going to the goat rooters.

    If it's possible to be successful in a completely unsuccessful club, then I wish him that.

    I've been sworn to secrecy, but you know me, I've got a good track record.

    Turned 33, 43,& 53 into 27 for Grundy.

    Turned Weed and 54 & 72 into 37

    Basically swapped Weed for Grundy and a slide of 4 picks in the second round, and a loss of a few late picks we where unlikely to use.

    Win

    13, 37

    I am assuming 86 is used to promote Chandler

    37 makes Weid expendable and whilst there’s still some chance he goes on and makes himself a career it was very unlikely at Melbourne.

    Part of good list management is knowing when to let a player go for their own sake and to keep the managers happy.

    If Weid goes on to have success and is a fair minded person he’ll probably regret not doing it sooner but he’ll also be thankful we gave him the chance to do so in 2023.

    This year’s pick 37 for Weideman would be preferred to a future pick given we’ve acquired a few already through other trades. Don’t know if that’s realistic though.

    Well done!

    Got your wish!

    All the best Weid. What we all wanted and what we got didn’t quite match up. 
    Missing that late goal up North a few years back was a telling moment sadly

      The Demons are back at the MCG for the second week in a row. They face the Suns off a 15 day break without their prized recruit and former Demon champion Christian Petracca. This will be a massive test for the Demons who will be facing a genuine Premiership contender. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Carlton

      The text messages started flooding in shortly after quarter time. One read: “Is Melbourne even at the ground?” Moments later, as Carlton’s Elijah Hollands kicked the first goal of the second term, the Blues held a commanding 43-point lead. By then, the Demons’ only score was a behind kicked by Brody Mihocek nearly five minutes into the game. Ironically, Mihocek would also register the last minor score of the day after the game took a dramatic turnaround.
