Could not agree less. He turned the 2021 GF on its head in that third quarter and we will be compensated for the trade. In no way a stuff up.

All I want for Xmas is two elite kicks and an above average tall forward.

Hibbo and Melksham can offer a lot for our younger brigade and could play a lot of footy at Casey. I am thinking that JVR, Howes, Chandler, Bedford, Bowey, Woewodin and whoever we bring in via trade and draft will have a big say in wether they get the chance to play many games. We really need to blood all of the above.!!

Being reported today that both Melksham and Hibberd will get another year. 

If so, it reflects the ongoing ultraconservatism in our selection regimen.

Dynasties are built on continuing renewal

Always feels like we never have players nominating Melbourne as their preferred club for trades.

Last one I think was BBB in 2019.

Lever, May, Langdon, Ben Brown, Dunstan. 4 were vital elements of our premiership team.

While last years trade period was very boring this one is shaping up to be very different. I think we will have to wait until the last day or two before Jackson deal gets done, as I think there will be a massive amount of pick swaps this year that will need to get done before the Jackson deal gets done. 
Think both pick 1&2 will be traded and although we are a chance to pick up one of them it’s far more likely that we will pick up one or more of the picks they are traded for. If that is the case we could be waiting on the likes of the Rankine deal to be completed before pick swaps take place ahead of the Jackson deal. 
I’m hoping that if the Jackson deal is stalling it might help us get get Grundy for less than a first round pick as the pies will need picks to get their deals done. Perhaps picks 32&41 get it done. Or if we trade Bedford whatever pick we get for him might come into the mix.

Sorry I should clarify my comment to say that it feels like no one wants to nominate for us this trade season. Still well a truely early into trade season so all being well we’ll get a few.

I was only joking, but I agree it would be great for a really good player to come our and say I want to go to the dees.

I wonder when really good players nominate a club it is code for, the club offering them a boat load of money (even though technically they can't do so whilst still contracted to another club). 

For average players, it is code for, I'm not good enough to get a regular senior game at my club becauseim not tbat good.

Probably because we don't have a lot of money to throw around and because it is very difficult to get a game let alone be part of the regular 22.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
