With picks # 6,8,19 & 22 Freo are now well positioned to trade further up the draft board.

    One of their last two picks will go to Geelong for Clark

    Carlton have finally recruited an actual quality midfielder.

    they may finally move out of the bottom 6 next year

    They could have just drafted him 4 years ago.

    Interesting change of plans from the hawks. I hope it blows up in their face..... But I'm probably asking for too much.

    The news of the day from Melbourne’s perspective was not its involvement in trades but rather, the re-signing of a raft of players including Kade Chandler who was being courted by the Crows. The seven players include senior listers Oskar Baker and Toby Bedford and rookies Mitch Brown, Chandler, Majak Daw, Deakyn Smith and Daniel Turner. This leaves the club with three players left uncontracted - Michael Hibberd, Marty Hore and rookie Kye Declase although it has been reported that Hibberd has been offered a one year deal. It’s looking very much like there’s not much room left for more than 2 or 3 newcomers at the draft. 

    Done Deals

    9. Collingwood trade their round two selection (22) to Fremantle for their round two selection (27) and a future third-round pick.
    10. Fremantle trade a future second-round pick and future fourth-round pick to Gold Coast for Will Brodie, a second-round pick (19) and two picks from round four (61, 69).
    11. Fremantle trade Adam Cerra to Carlton for pick six and a future third-round pick.
    12. Tim O’Brien (Hawthorn) joins the Western Bulldogs as an unrestricted free agent.
    13. In a three-way trade, the Western Bulldogs traded Lewis Young to Carlton.
    Carlton traded Sam Petrevski-Seton to the West Coast Eagles.
    The West Coast Eagles traded their round three selection (52) to the Western Bulldogs.

    If we're only taking 1 or 2 picks into the draft then I would presume that we would move on pick 37, 49 and 57 into something better for this year or into next. 49 and 57 may come in by half a dozen spots or more and could be valuable for clubs still wanting points.

    Capturing a creature like Powell - Pepper should require an actual lure.

    Makes a bit of sense why Freo is entertaining trading Lobb to GWS.  He is taking up a could chunk of Salary cap room, off load him and add O'Meara.  They will get Clark deal done with pick 22, Pick 8 would get the O'Meara deal done maybe with a Hawthorn Pick.

    Can't believe Rory Lobb would be on 700K as suggested on trade shows last night....Massive overs for a player who has never shown more than bits and pieces.

    You can't see GWS paying the entire amount if the trade happens

    Just to light a fire... what about James Sicily to our backline to free up Mr H Petty to roam forward in the TMAC role.  A big clunker of marks.

    A reverse Frawley if you will....

    I think Mitchell sees him as the next captain, so doubt he'll let him go.

    I like the idea of a reverse Frawley though haha.

    Is the trade period always this boring? Or is it just because this year we have had something far more enjoyable still in the front of our minds? This is a serious question. In previous years, because we've had little else to be enthusiastic about, trading and drafting became the highlights for us. But were other years as slow and boring as this one?

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
