Please post all new threads relating to Trades, Draft & Free Agency in the Board below. Any threads relating to these topics that are started in the Melbourne Demons Board will be moved here.

https://demonland.com/forums/forum/38-trade-draft-free-agency/

The unofficial name of board is the Way To Go Trade Draft & Free Agency Board dedicated to the good folk at the other end of the continent who made possible draft picks 5 and 24 and last year’s first pick Matt Jefferson who is coming along  nicely at Casey along with one or two other little gifts.

Please note that all of the usual Demonland rules about posting apply there … and please be respectful 😀

 

Ooooh, here we go. Demonland's time to shine.

 

What does everyone think will happen on our list?

I'm thinking:

Grundy - Traded

Harmes - Traded if interest there

JJ - lose to free agency 

Tomlinson - Traded

Melksham - Retire

Hibbard - Retire

Dunstan - Not offered a new contract

Ben Brown - Retire (may stay on the list and continue his AFLW coaching career with his contract as payment)

That is 7-8 List changes which is a lot so I don't think they will all happen.  Some may also seam harsh but got to be ruthless. 

Is a couple of other young guys that haven't shown much in the VFL but i can't see to many more list changes other than these, they will probably keep them and hope they benefit from another year of development. 

We will more than likely carry a couple of SPP selections into next year.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
