Nothing on Gus mate. I think it all depends on LJ

But seriously why would you make a call before the Season is done?

Both Players could be dual Premiership 

That would make things very different. 
I wouldn’t be signing anything yet….

Agree. If they are leaving, we wont hear till after our last game. If they are staying, we may not hear till after the last game.

    Having read that article, I am more convinced than ever that being an AFL journalist is easier than ever. The bloke spent an entire page writing a kids fantasy novel and offered no solution on how Freo get the deal done, despite his headline. What a complete waste of 5 minutes reading that dribble. 

    The AFL issues trade edicts  whilst paying gossip columnists (afl.com au) to trade trashy rumours about who is going where.

    So genuinely what do you lads reckon? Should he stay or should he go?

    My opinion he should stay.

    But he's Gawn.

    If we can get a best 22 player and first round picks I’d be doing the deal without a second thought. He’s a below average player now and I doubt he’ll ever be a top 10 in the league player that Freo will pay him as. Let’s use the hype to improve our list again.

    Dont agree LT. I think the kid is gonna be a star.

    Its obvious his mind is not on the job atm and he has mentally checked out.

    Say Lar Vee

    I thought Jackson was crap tonight. No-where near the money they are quoting. Good luck to them.

    You never checked out of a job when you’ve got a better offer somewhere else?

    Any chance  we could’ve played the safe option and chose the local boy in Hayden Young who is tracking towards being clearly one of the best players of that 2019 draft?

    No big trades like this end up really hurting side they leave.

    at the end of the day we are going to get a good deal for a kid who "could" be a gun.  he had a big part in getting us a flag, and this trade could be a big part in our next!

    • 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.
