An erratic club for an erratic player in Lukosius. It's almost too perfect.

Tigers could very well have picks 1, 6, 9, 13, 16, 21, 22.

They also have a plethora of later picks to target future picks and Brisbane's first rounder.

We should have a good relationship with yze and perhaps there will be deals to be done for us there.


I reckon the most interesting draft trade (outside of what we do) is North Melbourne with pick 2.

Given they have spent all their high picks in past three years on mids - Phillips, Wardlaw, Sheezel, McKercher and Duursma, they now find themselves staring down taking another one, unless they can somehow trade with the Saints (picks 7 and 8 - Battle) or Freo (picks 10 and 11) and get two picks of slightly less value.

Last year the deal would be done easily, but this year with very little between the likely top 10, both St Kilda and Freo would be reluctant to give up two picks - the Dockers will have to give one away anyway for Bolton.

So North, who would love to get two talls rated in the 6-15 category (eg: Armstrong and Trainor) in exchange for pick 2 - are stuck with deciding whether they take Langford (tall left foot mid) or O'Sullivan (classy mid/fwd Sheezel style) unless a club makes a nice but somewhat bizarre deal with them.

i think one of the things that is easy to forget is that afl players are afl players because, well, they grew up idolising other afl players

as such, it makes sense that they want to go and play for the club that they supported - it's a definite advantage for the likes of the filth (perryman), meth coke (baker), and the crom (cumming)

he's a great get for them given their age and list demographics

Shame we could never land Pendlebury and Buddy who were reputed to be Dee’s fans when young.

same happened for gunston at the crom, where he was the best young player winner or some such, and had the reward bestowed upon him withdrawn when he went to dingley

  • 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.

  • 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.
