Oh man, that's gross. I get we probably won't use 27 and 35, but both of them for a 3 pick upgrade? Yuck

You’d have to think it’s part of a larger plan involving pick 11? Definitely overs from a points perspective to jump only three places…

    Package with pick 11 & 6 to move up further you'd think.

    You'd hope so, given Adelaide paid only 23 and 26 for our previously held 14 and Chris Burgess...

    I'm just not up to scratch with the whole Elon stuff.

    No offence taken from my end?

    Isn't it funny that I mentioned taking on the Haynes contract with the bonus pick (as a possibility of covering Petty if the trade actually eventuated) and then a few posts later Mach comes through with something he may have heard. 

    Did you read my post? 

    Is there anyone aware that I may not have alllll of the machinations given I'm not in list management?! But that possibilities would be there that we can't see. So why even comment?!? 

    Man. 

    This place is crazy, honestly. We were so close to making a Grand Final. Without Petty. What's going on here?! 

    With petty our chances of making the grand final would have gone right up. In hindsight it may have been the difference. Considering we lost two finals by less than two goals and Collingwood won three finals by about 2 goals it was a season of very fine margins. God, imagine if we had melksham and Gus. We could have romped it in.

    Does the question mark indicate you are not sure if offence was taken at your end?

    I endorse this 

    If there’s a player besides Reid we really want and we know he most likely won’t be there with the picks we have now I say go for it.

    Which end?

    Jon Ralph “reporting” that we intend to offer a pick in the 30s for McAdam. Given we just traded out 35, he goes on to suggest we will be on-trading the pick we get for Grundy.

    Will 6, 11 and a future first get the Reid deal through? Hope so would love him on our side.

    After GC x 3 academy picks 6 might become 7 and 11 might become 13 or 14. not sure 7 + 14 + Dees 24 1st swing its.

    There must be a cunning plan though. Await further developments.

    Does that mean aim to use up all out picks this year (except one for Pup Brown) and a first from 2024 on Harley Reid?

    Oh, and McAdam and Fullerton, I guess

    That's some belief the club must have in him

    • 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.
