  • Demonland changed the title to Delistings 2024
 

Melksham to be given another year, same for TMac. Tomlinson I’d give another year as well if list spots allow.

Edited by Bombay Airconditioning

Would have thought Kentfield would be given more than 6 months

Keep:

Sestan

Verrall

Moniz

Hore

K Brown 

Melksham

The rest are done 

 

Pretty well close. Kentfield may be given an extension. 

We have pick 7 and ANB pick say early 20's, the Swans 2nd rounder and a pick in the 40's.

We should go to the draft IMO. We usually trade up and often use a future pick.

No doubt we will consider our FS Yze and Academy Mentha.

Care will be taken in using futures due to White and Ah - Mu  coming in next year.

Luker Kentfield

Geez Louise, did Luker run over your dog or steal your girlfriend or something?

You wrote him off the instant he was drafted and have been sticking the boots into him ever since.   

How about we give the kid a chance?

I'd imagine both TMac and Melksham will go around again.

Tomlinson will likely seek more opportunities elsewhere after another year we begged him to stay last year because he was a 'required player'. If TMac retires, then I could see him hanging around for another year.

Retired: Brown, Hunter, Schache 

Unsure old: T Mc, Tomlinson, Melk, Hore

No comment: J Smith

Unsure young: Kentfield 

Not convinced: Sestan, AMW

I guess so: Verrall and K Brown

Barring trades for better talls we’ve got to keep one of the Tom’s (T Mc the obvious preference). Got to keep Melk.

I’d love to keep Marty Hore, but his body hasn’t done him any favours this year. Probably have to see how trade week pans out.

This is far from a promising group of young players. Kynan and Verrell we probably sign on. AMW and Sestan I’d be just as happy to leave them out of contract until October and see how they go tank wise with a 6 week offseason running block.

All depends if anyone else is interested, happy for him to stick around another year so we can focus on other areas with drafts/trades.

BB gone. 

But not forgotten, he stood tall when it mattered. I still remember JB’S call, Benny Brown after Fritsch kicked back to back goals.

Bugger it, I’m going to watch the GF highlights now.

Plenty of chaff in that list.

Sestan is worth persisting with 

So far off the list:

Smith, Gus, ANB, BB = 4 

Talk of Viney going to North. Possibly all up 5.

Then others?? Hunter and Schache likely to go?

 

 

 

They'll keep Melky now that ANB is gone. Hid experience and leadership will be needed for the front half.

He’s also earned it off the back of his form since returning, IMO.

I'm assuming its

BBrown, Schache, Hore, KFW, Smith, Brayshaw OUT

AMW to A rookie

Sestan, Kentfield, Melksham, Verrall, KBrown re-sign as A rookies

Tomlinson, McDonald, Hunter re-sign

can see a world where Tommo looks to get out: Blues, Eagles, Roos, Crows, Lions, Pies could all be in the market and offer him a different look and a longer deal.

25 we send Petty back down back and McDonald plays the 24 Tommo role as next in

Ben Brown, Schache, Brayshaw and Joel Smith - Retired/Forced retirement 

Hunter is out of contract but I'd imagine he'd get another year. Still only 29, unless people know something I don't. He's handy depth along with Billings behind Langdon and Windsor as our primary wingers. We might also play Langdon at half forward like we did earlier in the year to cover ANB, which means we'll definitely need to retain Hunter's services. 

Melksham deserves to go around again and depending on Tomo if he requests a trade then we may look to keep Tmac which I hope we do. I'd like to see Adams push for selection next year. 

Hore is our back up intercepter if Lever is injured, so I'd imagine he stays on. 

The rookies I can't comment much on as I haven't tracked them closely this year. Sestan needs a huge preseason but I'm hopeful he stays on. AMW and Brown are developing nicely. Verrall I've heard good things and Kenterfield hasn't been given a proper crack at it yet so he deserves a full preseason to show us what he's got. KFW probably goes as I haven't heard much about him this year. 

In terms of draft and trading I just don't see why we're chasing Houston. I understand he's a very good halfback but he doesn't play midfield, so he's not really a like for like replacement for Brayshaw, which I'm speculating why we are chasing him. With our current pick 7 in the draft I'd like to go after a tall mid in Josh Smillie (Tom Green) but I doubt he'd last to our selection or Harry Armstrong as a key forward who will be around our selection after losing Brown and Schache. Jefferson and Kenterfield are still question marks at this point. 

No way Hunter gets another year.

Not quite sure if people have been paying attention...

Bit hard on Luker

It doesn’t seem like he has shown anything, I understand it’s harsh but clubs don’t keep blokes if they are no chance of making it

In fairness to him I’ve seen nothing but vague conjecture by posters, nothing in the media. But he’s been injured almost the entire year. Ordinary when not. And now MIA without being on the injury list.

 

 

T Mac has been a first choice key defender all year and May is looking more injury prone so obviously we need to keep him around or trade in new defenders (Turner and Petty are our fwd line now)

We might keep Tommo for depth or he could retire. He has been serviceable as always so I would personally keep him

Melksham is a tough one, 33yo next month. He played a few good games and a few poor games where he was hardly noticed. Given we don't have much senior depth and he is good for the culture I would keep him on. Get him to see a therapist in the off season to keep his focus/intensity up game to game as he is our best kick and can turn games.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • 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.
