Farewell Luke Jackson

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.

    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

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

      Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
