The footy gods have cursed quite a few trades for Freo, here’s hoping it continues (though nothing against Jackson personally).

    We will. It’s more about the size of the barrel now.

    Well, its finally over. i dont expect many will be totally happy as its certainly not what we wanted, but it wasnt really our fault, in the end its what we do with the picks from here on end and that will determine if we did well. I fully expect for us to live trade on draft night if not still try and move further up.

     

    As for Dogga, a life member, an historic premiership, a rising star and a good young fella who really gave everything. Here for a good time not a long time. Good luck to him. But from here on end, if you not with us, you are against us.

    Good luck to Jackson at Dockers. Can't complain about a player wanting to return home.

    But to be classified as a 'Rental' not a Demon.

    Match committee selection decisions in 2022 effectively guaranteed Bedford would ask for a trade to a team where he had confidence he'd play senior footy.

    Not happy with all of this and if the compensation is what's been mooted, then my only wish is they pick a Victorian kid that wants to come home and we screw the hell out of them, to get him.

    Yep, thats the part that has me a bit disappointed.. but lets turn the picks into a positive. Could that future dockers second go to the Pies?

    So it could work out as Pick 13, 12 and 30 (next year) for Bedford and 44 and 67

    Next years draft is meant to be excellent so 12 and 30 should be able to be packages to get into top 10

    Not too bad, considering

    Hard not to read this as: Melbourne gain a couple of potential stars for Casey, and the city of Fremantle to receive a new cashed up bogan.

    Or could we be looking to package picks up to move up the draft?

    44 is GWS' pick, so it's the above picks for Jackson, Bedford and 67.

    Club will be confident they can use pick 30 to move either first round picks forward this year or next otherwise this would drag out further

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
