If Freo can't find the picks to do the deal do we target one of their players?

Realistically, who might that be? 

Let's leave Brayshaw, Serong and Young out of the mix because that's not going to happen

    The three or four good players they have are all contracted til around 2036

    The others are Mundy (retired) & Fyfe (cooked)

    Probably Meek or some dork like that

    If we keep Jackson, Grundy and Gawn we could trade Maxy for an electric powered Jag. (Current model) and still retain some zip out of centre bounces.

    Just checked and signed a deal till 2026 a couple months ago. If we target someone it would be someone like Henry or Meek or some other fringe player. I'd like Treacy but they've got no forwards so I can't see that happening. I honestly think Lobb would give us a better shot at a flag than Grundy too.

    I had a look at their players and feels like they’ve signed most of their core.
    Ever heard of this bloke? Me neither 

    I don’t care who you are that’s one of the more impressive highlight reals I’ve seen in a while

    21 year old and 199cm key forward..

    Just looked at his wafl stats, seems like he played in reserves for most of the year, and wasn't particularly impressive. Was going at 3 goals a game in the WAFL before being picked up midseason so could be something there though.

    It would be great if Hutchy could spout the nonsense again about walking LJ to the PSD. Will at least put WC in the headlines

    Freo currently have 13, F1st, North F2nd, North F3rd.

    If Lobb to Dogs, say 25.

    Maybe Treacy as steak knives and we have another young key forward.

    Deal done.

    Would give us say 13, our pick 18, 20 and 38 next year, in a strong draft and with picks to draft or trade.

    This year 13 and say 25 ( Lobb ) and say 35 for Bedford.

    We could bundle 13, 25 and 35 to get 2 slightly better picks and use them this year. You might get say 10 and 20.

    See how easy it is.

    We haven't got those really high picks, but we have got enough for this year and next.

    A motley collection of mid range picks for a generational pick 3.

    I know we will be screwed but please let's not sugar coat it

    Come on down Eagles !!!

    Are you saying Jacko for all of that?? I assume this is a joke.

    Melb In > 13, 25, F1st (Freo), F2nd (North), F3rd (North) and Treacy
    Freo In > Jackson

    There's no way Freo would do that.  I know the pick values can be misleading but that equates to Pick 1, Pick 8 and Treacy (when they have as many young key forward options as we do)

    Agree that deal is absurd.
    We must get in 13, their future 1st and north’s future 2nd. We could throw back a future 3rd (or future 2nd at a stretch)

    Well, you also can’t move all of your future picks either (in Freo’s case).

    They must maintain a presence either in the first round, or the other rounds, for next year. Stupid confusing rules, but they’re there.

    How about...

    Jackson and pick 44 to Freo for pick 13, Future 1st, and (North's) Future 2nd

    Picks 13 and 27 to Geelong for pick 7 - Geelong use 13 for Bruhn

    Grundy to Dees for Freo's (North's) future 2nd

    Dees trade 7 and our future 2nd to GWS for 15 and 19

    Dees end up with Grundy, 15, 19 and future 1st for Jackson, 27, 44 and a future 2nd

     

    No you already traded 27

    Agree Sir They are struggling and have nothing to trade

    That is the biggest load of garbage, there is no way he is going to the PSD.  That reporter is being lies by the WA clubs or he is just making things up.

    • 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.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
