There's really nothing else to say in this thread other than something derogatory towards Fremantle.

    Jury is out on that one. I just want them to finish down  the ladder, they won’t finish last or second last if we could get pick four through six I would be delighted. Getting the picks we get for Jackson and getting The Bun will have been a great result. Our selection / negotiating team have done a great job again.

    Okay, I’d be prepared to get our original pick 3 back for LJ along with last years late first round pick and this years early 2nd round pick as payment for his development…you’re welcome PB

    Had a good time cheering on the Giants yesterday, and currently backing in the Suns against Richmond. Things going very nicely, Freo looking more and more likely to only finish above North, Hawks and the Eagles.

    Devastating draft cost of big name trade

    Can anyone who has access to this HS article let us know just what it’s saying (aside from the obvious we get Freos pick)

    TIA

    God I’m loving this death riding. Freo, GWS and Suns games all going our way this weekend. Gives me a genuine interest in an extra 3/4 games a week.

    NOVEMBER DREAMING OR NOVEMBER NIGHTMARE?

    Fremantle knows Luke Jackson will be a 10-year-plus player who will play a big role in the club’s future fortunes.

    But the Dockers would never have dreamed they might end up giving up so much to claim the 2021 premiership player.

    And that’s something which is keeping Melbourne fans watching the down-and-almost-out Dockers as much as they are their own team.

    Freo played finals last year and would have expected to do the same this year. That’s why they were content trading last year’s pick 13 as well as a future first and future second to the Demons.

    But after a 2-5 start to the 2023 season – and with their confidence looking shot at times against Brisbane – the Dockers look to have no chance of playing finals this year.

    If things stay the same, and the Dockers remain in a similar ladder position, the Demons might be getting a pick 5 or 6 or 7 this November, as well as a mid 20s pick as well.

    That’s not Jackson’s fault, and the Dockers are more than happy with him. But you can also understand why Simon Goodwin and Demons fans are watching the Dockers so closely.

    I wouldn't trust Peter Bell to run a bath, let alone a football department.

    Two marks this week. Two.

    At about $100,000 a mark 🫠

    I still laugh at the thought that he’s getting paid more than 6 time AA ruckman and premiership captain Maximus Gawn 😂

    Freo play Hawthorn next weekend. 

    Hawthorn get the job done and anything is possible in regards to a top 3-5 pick.

    That 4th tank could very well be Richmond

    Their first pick is tied to GWS is it not? So I hope they tank. 😄

    Yes the irony would indeed be hilarious

    My head tells me that Hawthorn has no show of beating Fremantle in Perth but my heart says otherwise. Still, I remember very well the Sunday evening when Collingwood went over there and upset them in the rain. I think it was the start of the Magpies run and, in all likelihood, the defeat that cost the Dockers a top four berth so here’s hoping.

    I am taking the weekend off the death ride. Hawthorn are tanking quite well right now - a couple of honourable losses ensure Smitchell can continue the tank away from prying eyes half a world away.

    Dont you play them into form Hawthorn! We love their stilted ball movement and unimaginative play!

    IT IS INSPIRING

    if freo keep this up we will be in a unbelievable draft position

    Looking at each teams needs I think hawks will take Reid pick 1

    westcoast could take Moir (from Adelaide, west coast supporter) pick 2 

    North need a key position player, already have wardlaw sheezel powell and L Davis Uniacke, maybe take curtain or A Reid

    Gold Coast may trade back so they don’t waste high first round pick on Walter so we could be looking at dursma Watson caddy A Reid 

    Maybe we trade with Gold Coast with some combination of our first and second round pick for their first 

    maybe bring in some combination of dursma/ Watson with archer Reid/ caddy 

    also like the look of Connor o,Sullivan

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      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?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      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.
