True, but no way would May have gone off. Harmes offered but was not allowed. Was a selfless act by Harmsey.

And I consider as Team first was our mantra Harmesy should not have been the only one offering to be selfless. May stepping forward would have been ticked off

    In what world is Battle worth a million a year?

    If I was Frost I'd be worried.  Sicily, Barrass and Battle

    Plus Scrimshaw, Grainger-Barras and Blanck

    If we rate any of the last 3 we should target them, no way they can get a game

    Thanks Dubdee.  Agree that hawks will be stretched to fit all their defence in.  Jai Serong also had a standout 2024 in the VFL for box hill hawks.

    get jai in 2024, then target caleb in 2025?

    it's high time we get another quality player out of flagmantle - white, langdon... add serong we'd be ahead of the ledger (i'm ignoring chisholm and balic) with farmer and jackson the big names who've gone the other way?

    in some respected i'd prefer andy brayshaw to caleb serong, but they'd both be key to our midfield, as would hayden young be

    Pick 3 for baker?

    No way, they'll want p 3 for baker and p10 or something to that effect I'm sure

    Probably to split and get Baker and keep a good pick.

    Turn pick 3 into Baker and Allan perhaps, not a bad deal for them.

    I’m told the Bailey Smith to Geelong is done and he’s even been told he’ll get Number 2.

    kornes is such a numpty

    teams want to deal with each other as they have to EVERY YEAR for the rest of the afl's existence

    it's not like there's more teams that they can trade with outside the league

    look at how bad the reputation has been for the peptides to deal with for over 20 years; you don't want to have even the perception that you're hard to deal with as it stains you for players, managers, other clubs, and - ultimately - the medja

    he's such a stephen a smith wannabe

    Sam Wicks from Swans to Gold Coast will probably happen. 

    further proof that the nga and zone selections helps them retain local players eh...

    Bailey Smith has formally requested to be traded from the Bulldogs, to the great surprise of nobody at all.

    I'd be most surprised if he's not playing for Geelong next year.

    Geelong don’t have a good pick to give up, so this could get interesting. He was pick 7 in ‘18, so Dogs are going to want something similar.

    What reasons does Bailey Smith want out for?

    Dogs don't have enough TikTok followers

    He wants his ripped Abs to be seen by as many as possible

    I thought scrimshaw was very good against the puppy dogs

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
