Rioli and Noble to the Suns. They are doing well and will have some good HB run next year

    With the exodus at Tigerland, early picks will be incoming. And a war chest of salary cap room. Is Tigerland a “Big Club” with big crowds….?

    depends, can their doctors diagnose internal bleeding and spleen damage on the sidelines without a MRI/CT Scan?

    Is Rioli a better player than Neal-Bullen? Trade price seems way out of whack between the two.

    Bailey Smith to the Cats

    Hope he’s a culture killer for them

    Note to all who still blame the Demons for ‘letting’ JJ go. 

    You don’t have a choice in some circumstances 

    When good players miss out on a flag they will probably leave and fair enough too

    Rate both of these players. Thought Noble was hard done by the Pies last year not to make it back into the team for the flag.

    Just to be clear, the AFL stewards would not let JJ onto the field for the GF as Harmes' 'cramp' was not considered to be an injury

    noble's back half of the year has been very good

    losing rioli, bolton, baker as well as retirements of martin and grimes plus others is a massive glut of experience out of the tigs

    They are in for a world of pain for seasons to come. Bolton is a massive loss and huge gain for Dockers if they nab him.

    Some more updates from Sam Edmund

    Dan Houston (Port Adelaide)

    “He was strongly linked to Melbourne for a time and that did appear the most likely outcome before things further unraveled at the Demons,” Edmund said.

    “There’s the possibility that he remains at Port, but with the Melbourne door closing they’ve been looking at other avenues.

    “One of those avenues is absolutely St Kilda. There has been conversations between club and player here. My understanding is Houston has a level of interest in getting to Moorabbin.

    “As things stand, he is one to watch when it comes to St Kilda’s trade period.”

    Tim Membrey (St Kilda)

    “He’s an unrestricted free agent, so that appeals to clubs. He’s only 30 and he’s unsure where he sits at St Kilda at the moment. He’s half expecting to be permitted to seek a trade elsewhere.”

    “There have been preliminary conversations with North Melbourne and I think a few other clubs, but nothing has progressed too far given he’s yet to learn what it looks like at Moorabbin.”

    Leek Aleer (GWS)

    “He’s a very bright young talent and in and out of a strong Giants backline.”

    “The phone has rung hot for him all year. He’s contracted until 2025 at the Giants. I’ve been told he’s determined to see out at least next year.

    “But 2025 is a big year for Aleer to make a decision and he’s no certainly no guarantee to stay on.”

    Matt Owies (Carlton)

    “I still think the more likely outcome is that he stays.”

    John Noble (Collingwood)

    “They only had a rough inkling of (his desire to get to the Gold Coast), Collingwood.”

    “There was an element of surprise internally at the Pies.”

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      The Demons come face to face with St. Kilda for the second time this season for their return clash at Marvel Stadium on Sunday. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
