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: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
