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.

    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.”

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
