Matt Owies suspended for a week and will miss their finals campaign. Still unsigned. 27 goals last year, 33 this year. Worth a look? 

Could give us more scope for Kozi, Tholstrup, Sparrow to rotate into the middle more often.

Zak Jones actually had a pretty good finish to the season, with an AFL Player Rating of 10.6 in the last 7 games and he is out of contract. We might have won against Brisbane, GWS and Port had he been playing for us those nights.

We might have lost by more due to how often he kicks it to the opposition

John Noble has requested a trade out of Collingwood.

Any takers?

McRae suggested a straight swap for Trac. Negotiations are ongoing.

Requested the trade to Gold Coast.


Sam Edmund

Adam Tomlinson

“Set to leave Melbourne as an unrestricted free agent. Wants more opportunity. Just wants to play. Is St Kilda the home as his third club?”

Yes, would directly replace ANB. Well loved by Blues supporters. Hard worker, known goal kicker. 3rd highest goal scorer behind McKay/Curnow.

Look forward to playing whichever club he lands at.

 

No brainer Tomlinson signs with StK with Battle out the door

Wish Tomlinson the very best. Worked hard post ACL and deserves more opportunities.

I'm so sick of these low ball ridiculous offers. 

It's mcreery and a late first rounder or don't even bother calling me

With Schache and Farris-White delisted, BBB retired and Tomlinson likely to depart, our depth on the talls department is taking a serious hit this off season.

Hopefully Jefferson and Adams come on next season.

I see a lot of players being thrown up from rival clubs, but none linked with us. We have that early 2013 pong about us. 
Interesting a lot of players linked to Adelaide clubs. 

If Trac demands a trade to the Blues as rumoured and the relationship is broken beyond repair, then we should get Tom DeKoning and a top 10 pick in return. Their problem on how to get us the top 10 pick, but it's not negotiable for a top 5 player in the league still well under contract.

Well if Carlton lose to Brisbane their pick will be 11…if Freo did their bit would have been bang on 10!

Not sure if we could have Bowey and Noble on the same team............

Aside from TDK or Curnow, I don’t think Carlton have any players we would actually want. 

Their mids are very similar to ours

Read the article - he wants to go to GC for family reasons.

Weird in a Blake Acres kind of way.  Played every game this year - although will miss their final through suspension.  He's a low numbers player, but has kicked a goal in all but four games this year and is a reasonable pressure forward from what I've seen.  TPP problems at the Blues?

Trade Trac for TDK and their first

Then send a good deal to Gws for Finn Callaghan please 

TDK, Callaghan and a first  

 

yes I’m dreaming

Unfortunately the poop show that has unfolded over the last few weeks gives us zero chance of convincing any best 22 players to join us. I reckon it will also complicate the Petracca trade because no one will agree to leave their club to join us.

From what I've heard, the misplaced arrogance of our playing group over the last few years might not have helped endear our club to outside players either. This is a high priority to correct if it is a reality.

I think we need some midfield senior depth. Parker and someone of similar quality and experience. Maybe not best 22, but best 24-25. 
I like Lukosius as a replacement for Petty down back. Our forwardline I am okay with, they need time to gel. 
Then we need 2 really good high draft midfielders. Assuming Trac goes, we need to find a one/two combo, like the Trac and Gus draft. 
Unlike most, I want Juddy and Rivers to continue down back, with Howes and AMW developing their craft.

lukosious will be going to one of the adelaide teams

i agree that when trac goes, as suspected, we need to reignite our midfield options from a senior perspective not just a development one, as per richo's comment on radio the other day

footscray's jack macrae must surely be an option if they truly want him off their books

as too good be dylan shiel, darcy parish from the peptides

i'm not hugely enthused by those three, but they're three that may be options

McCrae for sure! 
 

I can see the Adelaide teams having issues fitting Lukosious in, hoping we can swoop. But you might be right.

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

  • 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.
