Not starting a thread for it, and missed it myself - but apparently someone called in to Trade Radio and said Josh Bruce has done a medical at the Dees and is expecting to be an MFC player next year.

Not sure what level of nuff involved.

    Yes, just saw that rumour on Facebook.

    I presume we need a new thread about him? 😉

    He can replace BBrown and TMac as a bloke heading into retirement who struggles to get out on the park and has a limited impact when he does 🤭

    You might have been brought in a time when housing was affordable on a single income. We've now had 31 years of underemployment in Australia (ie Australians needing more than one job to keep up) and a housing boom since the late 80s that has locked out two and a half generations from the housing market.

    The world isn't as simple as you or your mother portray it. In the words of The Waterboy, "well, mumma's wrong again!"

    I don't know your personal situation AF but I certainly don't know of too many footballers of the ilk of Jackson that are concerned by having to work 2 jobs to "keep up."

    Of course it was a different time, and my mother who is 94 was talking about that time. So she wasn't wrong. And your rubbish about 2.5 generations being locked out of the housing market is just that. Rubbish.

    well i do hope we are entertaining pulling in some good players in this draft period, we seem to have all of our eggs in the one basket at the moment which collingwood can potentially pull out of if we cannot satisfy them with picks and $'s.

    With all the reaming and bending over that's supposedly going on it's a wonder any trades get done at all.

    Surely this means T-Mac & Brown are properly cooked?

    I think they were both going in for surgery post season

    Is it just me or do alot of AFL clubs seem to have the wrong attitude during trade week?

    Especially Fremantle as well as Brisbane and in the recent past Essendon.

    Geelong also seem to be getting stronger even though they are now the new reigning Premiers.

    Rather than trying to come to an amicable solution with both clubs benefiting it is more about screwing over the other AFL clubs in trades.

    It can't bode well if this mindset continues.

    Maybe, but we also have list depth to make up - Jackson, Daw and Mitch Brown all gone. Grundy in, but seemingly no replacements for the others yet.

    *This is if the rumour has any weight of course.

    Could be a good swap Tomlinson for Bruce.  We need a KPF and the need a KPD.  Be similar money

    Depends if Bruce's body is done or not.  kicked 48 goals before doing his ACL last year but looked terrible when he came back this year

    30yo, could be worth a punt once we dont give up much

    That would be a pretty good reason why we wouldn't do that trade IMO.

    Well that means Geelong can't trade their F1st in the Bowes deal now, looking at F3rd?

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • 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.
