    Negotiation tactics. He’ll sign an extension with the cats.

    I could see Hawkins doing a Buddy and rarely training.

    At the right price a one year deal is not that silly.

    I don't think we'll get anything out of TMac and probably little out of BBB

    Jordan Lewis joining us from the hawks is just as strange as this…

    Surely couldn’t happen.
    The scuttlebutt in 2022 was that he was playing on very little money.  Must be be a matter of length.

    You wouldn't see TH getting front-end loaded by "footy acts" either. As Walt said in Breaking Bad, "I am the danger".

    I love the idea of signing him for 1 year with a clause for a second.  Pay him 500 a year which is less than Grundy.  We dont need that $$ atm but when his contract is up will fall perfectly with re-signing Petty/JVR

    Can’t stand Hawkins and really hope this is not a possibility.

    Please no.

    You want a player who's desperate and motivated to play in a succesful side, and hopefully play in a premiership team, aka Ben Brown. If Hawkins is holding out for more money, then we'll be just be topping up his super.

    Pushes the defender in the back in almost every marking contest and gets away with it, has done for years. He is the reason May did his hamstring in 2021 and almost missed the GF. Makes me cringe every time I see him playing.  Geelong, please sign him up ASAP!

    Could be awkward. Pretty sure I've heard Max say at a function that Hawkins is his wife's hall pass.😬

    Let him retire to mowing his lawn with the John Deere...

    That's OK; he wouldn't at Melbourne.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
