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?

    Well in the words of Joe Strummer: If he leaves there will be trouble but if he stays there will be double..

    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!

    • 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.
