    No idea what has been going on with Oliver and we still need to have real concern for Brayshaw.  Billings adds that little more depth.

    Steven May had not fulfilled his talent.... fast forward and he has two AA jackets with Melbourne.

    Seriously? 

    They were all good at the time 

    May was Captain

    Lever a gun.

    How is the latest unfulfilled high draft pick going in his new environment ?

    Give me a break please.

    Actually that he's not a big body is the problem I see

    May, Lever and Hibberd became first time all Australians with us champion

    So your argument is that because some trades don’t work we should never trade again. 
    I’ll give Tim a call, tell him he’s fired.

    Ingerson came from the Crows and was more than handy.

    So back on Billings...

    Any confirmation of details yet? Particularly around if Saints are paying any of his salary?

    Apparently they will be paying some of his salary and it's likely a late pick or even a swap of picks i.e. we give our future 3rd and they give Billings and a future 4th.

    Billing’s and McAdam are much bigger players then Chandler and Sparky, 10/12 cm more.

    I reckon Daniel Cross did rather well in red and blue! And in fact, he and his training regime helped to push the Melbourne football club Culture in the right direction.

    Hi

    we seem to have fixed that 26 points zone of death in 2023... we rarely got that far ahead 😉

    Looking forward to rediscovering the zone in 2024

    ...subject to the cost, business-expense-budget(aka salary cap)-wise.

    Stephen Sylvani was just on Trade Radio and said they hadn't even spoken to Melbourne about Billings. So who knows. SOS would be the last person I'd trust on anything. Based on the Vibe. Nothing else.

    Thought this was a done deal and we were just waiting for the ink to dry …

     

    It's a SOS special.... how that bloke is still working in AFL recruitment is beyond me.

    Imagine having 60-70% misses at the Giants and Blues and continually given jobs....

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.

      It's Game Day or has everyone given up. Maybe it is because a prime time Friday game is so rare ... double checks today is Friday ... Come on DL'ers support the team one last time for the year!

    • AFLW PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      The Demons return to Casey Fields (aka the Field of Dreams) this Saturday to host the Saints in Round 2. If you’re feeling lucky, head down the Monash for some family-friendly footy—you might even walk away a winner. The first 5,000 adults through the gate will receive an entry into the $10,000 helicopter ball drop. With Casey’s infamous wind, what could possibly go wrong? Closest ball to the pin wins. So spread the word, get down there—and good luck!
