AFL TRADE NEWS AND RUMOURS 

Whispering_Jack
in Melbourne Demons

Featured Replies

Among the other clubs to come forward for the Suns' pick 19, which they were officially granted last week as part of the AFL's concession package, is Melbourne.

The 2021 premiers' first pick for this year's draft is No.33 but the Demons are interested in grabbing the Suns' pick 19 in a deal that would require Melbourne to offload its future first-round pick.

    Pick 17

    Yeah, 19 once F/S and so on come into play. which is a strong pick. really curious if we have someone in mind in the draft, or there is a trade to be had there. 

    Won't happen but would love to swoop in at the 11th hour and nab Jordan Dawson

    Still think Brander from WCE would be handy for us.  You will get him cheap, that pick 49 we just picked up would do it.  I see him as a tall forward option, hasn't really had a chance to play that role at WCE.

    I agree but it’s a no from me as we are stacked right now for tall forwards. He’d also probably be reluctant given we have Jackson, Tmcd, BBBrown & then Weid already waiting in the mix.  Probably if Tmcd was retiring then he’d would certainly been a strong option.

    Agree. He is the one that could be very handy for us, at a cheap pick. I posted as much a while ago and at 22 and 195cms he is the right age and versatile.

    OK he might be a depth player but we are in a massive premiership window that we need to plan to extend for as long as we can, adding a 22yo Tall Forward that can swing into the backline or even into the midfield.  Think Tomlinson but younger and moves better.

    Rate Brander highly, the fact he doesn't seem to have a huge amount of interest makes me wonder if there is something we don't know. on the surface he should

    So you're saying it's a done deal?

    Doesn’t look like it we went for Dunstan

    According to the Hun Kade Chandler met with the Crows last week.

     

    Should we be looking to draft a replacement newshound to put pressure on Benny Gibson or promote from within the ranks?

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
