    Cats only offering pick 17 for Bailey Smith

    Dogs not biting (pardon the pun)

    A threat of Bailey walking to them for free is there and I could see Smith treating his old club like dirt

    Hopefully the Cats have to give up more than pick 17

    Can’t wait to read the media fawning over the Cats recruiting brilliance when they pull this off. Dogs likely want their F1 as well which apparently we’re getting for Oliver. 🤦‍♂️

    can't see Smith going for free. He would need to bypass fourteen odd clubs. Only one needs to bite. It would make for an interesting watch though.

    It will happen one day.

    Didn’t it already happen once with Luke ball? He went  from saints to pies who then went on to win the flag v saints.

    Nope, unfortunately. Nobody blinked and he went to his preferred club without the Saints getting anything in return.

    Hopefully the Saints this time look to get some back.

    Who do they want and is it the same player as us? I'd really hate to do all this trading and then watch Carlton trump us after watching Houston go to Collingwood.

    Given we traded up for 9 rather than 5 I don't think it's all that relevant for us. There were links to Carlton and O'Sullivan

    The thing that worries me with these so called super drafts is in reality they only become super drafts 3-5 years down the track. There's been plenty of busts picked at 9. Whilst I trust JT to get them right we can ill afford to not nail the picks we get. There's no doubt 2, perhaps 3 standouts in the top 10 this year and I don't want Carlton taking the guy we're chasing. Twomey thinks we may try to trade our picks again, it's going to be interesting viewing that's for sure.

    I think it makes sense for WC. They have lots of holes to fill. Local boy Bo Allen is predicted to go around 12.

    Carlton just got pick 3 for 12, 14 and Matt Owies. WC then gives 14 for Liam Baker. That is horrendous business from Wet Toast. All of it. 

    Disagree. There's no guarantee that pick 3 ends up being better than 12, and Baker and Owies are good acquisitions.

    Tiges wouldn't do that. They want as many 1st round picks as possible.

    Houston to Carlton for pick 3 and a future first now I guess

    • 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.

      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?

      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.
