And they'll get it because they are good negotiators, demand a ridiculous amount, don't roll over and end up getting less than they asked for but more than it's worth.

Ignore them paying pick 10 and 34 for Lachie Schultz and giving Ginnivan away for nothing last year.

    Agree, that's the reason Petracca's not there next year right there.

    Because they were fleeced by noted masters of trading and negotiation ..... Fremantle. 😁

    If the club dies maybe they will be rewarded in heaven.

    Don't Demons go the other way?

    Reckon they overvalued Schultz and got played by the best in the business at barrel rolling. Sneaking suspicion they let Ginny go for ... uh ... cultural reasons *ducks for cover*

    If Collingwood were giving away players for cultural reasons they should’ve had a fire sale! There’s quite a few they could’ve traded for the same reasons!

    This is a good move for North. Will help take a lot of pressure off Larky, who is already a star. Add in Parker, and I reckon North will finally make some inroads in 2025.

    Huge gets for North. Especially Parker, still got at least a couple of years left.

    Light at the end of the tunnel for the Roos.

    Also ignore them getting rid of players like Treloar and Grundy while still paying large amounts of their salary.

    Jeez that’s a high price in a reputed strong draft. I’d say 10 is overs. 

    There would have to be a 2nd rd pick going back to Freo, otherwise it's a massive overpay. Tigers will end up with heaps of 1st rd picks, so it would be easy for them to give away a 2nd rder.

    Anyone monitoring the Pies salary cap. 

    Pendles, Howe, Sidebottom, Cox Etc still going around and would on decent contracts  

    Whilst Adams walked last year, the only player who left from their best 22 from the premiership team was Murphy.

    And now departures are only Noble (again a former mid season rookie on limited $$) & Joe Richards would again be on minimum type contract   

    Over past 2 years adding in serious $$$s for Tom Mitchell, Bobby Hill, Mcstay, Schultz, … now Perryman and now right in the frame for Houston. 

    Lots of youngsters also on rising $$$ too like the Daicos boys and quaynor.  
     

    I know the salary cap is going up and up, but whilst the Dees have stagnated, Pies appear to be picking up more and more players on serious $$ as additions without much going out.  😭😭

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    • PREGAME: Collingwood

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
