'Now would be a great time for Franklin to settle the Swans' I thought to myself.

Any further psychic power requests let me know in DMs.

How many goals will he kick in his final game on Steven May ?

They're genuinely lucky that Norf + WCE are as bad as they are

Logically they will beat the Eagles but maybe no one else with Hawks the only other chance.

Suns play Roos in last game and have better %, so it should be pick 4 for us and a good second rounder too.

Freo will get 2 wins at best for the rest of the season, probably only 1. With their percentage I'd say 15th is now a certainty. Picks 4 & 23 are coming out way!

Got a bit ahead of myself there. The  AFL will find a way of giving North a first round free agency compensation pick for Ben McKay and there'll be at least 1 Gold Coast Academy selection ahead of us in Round 1, with likely 3 in the first 20, so Picks 6 & 27 are coming our way 🙁

It's this sort of uncertainty around what will happen with compensation picks/priority picks/bid matching inside the top 10 which makes me lean toward trading up for pick 1.  All picks below pick 2 look like they'll be diluted.  Only one way to avoid all of that - trade to the top.

Yep.

Project get Reid.

We would have some forward line in five years, with JVR, who will he be a best by then, Jefferson hitting his straps and Reid on the rise.

The Eagles need to inject  mutiple first round picks to jump start their development.

And even if the talk about Reid telling the Eagles he doesn't want to play there is bollocks  there's always the risk of a country boy wanting to come back home to Victoria.

So if we do trade up to pick 1, do we take Reid or bid on Walter?

this is one of the sillier threads - needs to finish.

Odd thing to write.

Should we message you for the green light prior to posting "anything" or are some things ok?

Settle down. I have already back tracked - I saw the thread as an opportunity to bash Jackson but clearly I was wrong. Put it down to my irritable bowel.

  • 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.

  • 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.
