'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 ?

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?

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.

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    The Dees were blown out of the water early by the Fremantle Dockers before fighting back and going down by 19 points in their final practice match of the preseason before Round 1. Remember it's only a practice match if you lose.

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
