Lamb last minute deals are my favourite. Like a kebab after a big night out, will you regret it, or will it cure your hangover?

I think its a good sensible move. Need some depth and experience to replace what we have lost in jordan and harmes. Haven't really addressed our obvious key fwrd needs but im sure they tried.  I think the grundy experiement really has cost us a year in terms of geting in the ears of a key fwrd, either last trade period or this one. Dont think we wont still try and move up the draft board

Essentially we swapped Billings for Harmes, he offers better kicking skills which I dont mind.

People likening this to when we got Hunter, feels more to me like when we got Melksham. I wasn't thrilled at all at the time but look what we got.

Well we didn’t use the pick from the Dogs - we used our own, but I get your drift. 

Let’s hope he/we can get that body right.

Young? He's 28!

Anyway, let's see if he can at least get on the park. He seems to have broken every part of his body over the past decade.

Didn’t realise Dave Misson was Head of Football at St Kilda – is that not out of his wheelhouse a little for a ‘fitness’ guy? (Happy to be corrected)

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
