I have a relative who's friend of a friend that is high up in the Red Bull fraternity, it appears that CP5 is still exploring a trade to the pies or carlscum, the deal appears to be Carlton will deal Walsh and Owies plus a F1 for CP5 with the pies trying desperate to top them with a deal including the bloke who retired Gus as well as De Goey and some pick swaps, the bloke who clocked Gus said he owes the Dees, so is willing to come, they are still trying to find the other bloke in L.A. when I get further mail from my sisters girl friend's boy friend, I will post more. Stay tuned as Norf has not given up on Tracc just yet, with the saints still sniffing and Dawks and Bumbers willing onlookers.

Are you a reincarnated Riddler?

 Hunter, Brayshaw, BBB, Schache, Turner, ANB and I dare say Tomlinson all gone. 

We are going to need to cover 7 spots,  which is alot.

3 Draft kids, 2 Trade (Derksen, and hopefully Peatling), 1 rookie maybe 2, but possibly leaving 1 spot for a SSP

You mean Smith not Turner.

Brayshaws spot went to Kentfield.

It's not a lot of spots at all.

Here's the list changes from last year:
https://www.afl.com.au/news/1051691/ins-and-outs-every-clubs-full-list-changes-ahead-of-2024

Number of players off per team:

Adelaide 8
Brisbane 8
Carlton 7
Collingwood 8
Essendon 11
Fremantle 6
Geelong 8
Gold Coast 9
GWS 5
Hawthorn 10
Melbourne 8
North 13
Port 10
Richmond 7
St.Kilda 9
Sydney 10
West Coast 9
The Dogs 9

Range = 5-13, Mean = 8.6, Median = 8.5, Mode = 8

Seven is less than each of the mean, mode and median from last year.  Unsure why posters persist in suggesting 7 is "a lot".

We'll probably make at least 3 trades/FAs/DFAs. 3 NDs and 1 RD which easily covers 7 slots.  If anything I think it's not enough.

Red Bull have delisted Daniel Ricciardo possibly to clear cap space for Petracca?

Someone needs to take McAdam under their wing because he promised the world and by all accounts should be able to deliver, but the guy is just never quite right.  I believe he has lots of potential just need to work harder and make sure he's fully fit...I wonder what the issue is.

Someone at another club would be good.

He is lazy and doesn't put in the effort.  I was on this when we were first linked to him, has been the word out of the crows for a while.

Can't believe we gave up anything for him let alone a second rounder, 53 games(no major injuries either, mainly soft tissue) in 5 years with his talent, says it all.

Here's to hoping something clicks, but I'm not holding my breath!

I know this might not be a popular post, but with ANB gone we need a player who can run and do the team first things. Finn Maginess is an elite runner and someone we might get cheap.....

Also means Clarry has 1 less tagger out there.

Don't mind it, we also need 1 or 2 players of his ilk that might not quite be in the team but if we have an injury can fill the hole.

We can't just get kids and superstars like most people think.

Depending where you look McCrae wants to come to the Dees. Petracca can then play forward which would be good for us. We do need to draft two young good midfielders and probably have someone else from our existing who could that role. Preferably not Kossie.

What was funny on a website that getting Dersken ( no senior games ) and a Tom Campbell was a mini team rebuild.

A year ago we all felt we were one injury-free Melksham away from winning a flag, so it made sense to just do the deal for a pick that wouldn't make much of a difference the following year if taken to the draft. Easy to say these things now with hindsight.

As always we don’t seem to be in the hunt for any big name players .. what is it about our club yet you hear cats, pies, even the saints seem to be in the hunt 

wtf are you talking about

this year we were near certs to get houston - the best player looking to move clubs by some margin - until such a time as our season collapsed in on itself

there's not that many 'big names' looking to move clubs; in truth, there rarely is

    2024 Player Reviews: #50 Ben Brown

    Coming to Melbourne after seven years as a leading goal kicker at North Melbourne, Brown was well known for his unique, extremely long run up on set shots for goal. After some early setbacks injury wise settled into the full forward position in time to play a big role in the 2021 premiership win with three goals. Unfortunately, the remainder of his time at the club was hampered by injury including the need to undergo knee surgery. He retired from playing football at the end of the season after 4

    Brown, the son of former Demon hard nut Nathan Brown, made a couple of cameo appearances as a substitute which included a brilliant run down tackle which may have saved the game against the Kangaroos. Had some outstanding games at VFL level and finished equal sixth in the best & fairest at Casey.

    AWESOME FOURSOME by Meggs

    The rejuvenated Demons out tussled the Tigers by 13 points to make it four wins on the trot on Saturday which means that the slight possibility of a finals appearance remains alive in 2024. This is despite the AFLW handicapping the Demons against their peers yet again (more later). Lots to celebrate as it was Kids Day at Casey Fields and both teams ran onto the ground modelling their Pride jumpers.   Kate Hore won the toss and kicked to the Clyde end. Thankfully, the notorious Casey

    MORE FIERCE by Meggs

    We’re back!  Winning the last three matches has recaptured our Demon spirit and, with superstar players returning from rehab, our Season 2024 dreams are not over yet.   So come along 5.05 pm Saturday afternoon to watch this Round 9 ladder-defining match at the Field of Dreams. Expect the Tigers to be fierce, but surely the Demons will be more fierce. Playing conditions are expected to be a dry 15 degrees with a typically gusty Cranbourne wind.

    THE TRADING CHRONICLES 03

    Part 3: Happier Days by Whispering Jack It would be fair to say that when the Melbourne Football Club entered the free agency and trade period earlier this month, its reputation was flagging, if not in tatters. The club was taking a battering in the media and social media over a number of issues, some real and others imaginary and even fabricated, relating to the running of the club, team performance and its culture, a build up that’s been taking place for more than twelve months.

    IN FRONT by Meggs

    In this must-win clash between Melbourne 11th on the ladder and St Kilda 8th, it was the Demons who were in front all day to win in a hard-fought Round 8 clash to make it three in a row to keep theit slim finals chances alive. A good crowd of enthusiastic footy families for week 2 of Pride Round had gathered.  The full pews in the well-appointed RSEA Park grandstand provided excellent viewing.   The Saints won the toss and elected to kick to the southern end favoured by a strong 2-3 g
