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.

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.

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

    HOT AND SULTRY by Meggs

    FNQ will be hot and sultry this Thursday night when the mighty Demons take on the highflying Hawks at up there Cazalys Stadium in Cairns.   The Demons once again rebrand for Indigenous Round as ‘Narrm’, the Woi Wurrung name for Melbourne in the language of the traditional owners.   Narrm has surged back up the ladder and sits just outside the eight on percentage with 5 wins. Our opponents Hawthorn sit second with 8 wins and have been become really offensive.

    The key defender has the height and has showed out from time to time with his pace in defence but has progressed slowly in his two seasons at the club. Will need to improve in 2025. Date of Birth: 14 May 2004 Height: 196cm Games CDFC 2024: 17 Goals CDFC 2024:  0

    Like most big men, Verrall is taking time to develop as a ruckman but has shown some encouraging signs. Finished ninth in the Casey Demons best & fairest this year. Date of Birth: 11 March 2004 Height: 199cm Games CDFC 2024: 17 Goals CDFC 2024: 6

    2024 Player Reviews: #50 Ben Brown

    Coming to Melbourne after seven years as a leading goal kicker at North Melbourne, Brown was well known for his unique, extremely long run up on set shots for goal. After some early setbacks injury wise settled into the full forward position in time to play a big role in the 2021 premiership win with three goals. Unfortunately, the remainder of his time at the club was hampered by injury including the need to undergo knee surgery. He retired from playing football at the end of the season after 4

    2024 Player Reviews: #41 Kynan Brown

    Brown, the son of former Demon hard nut Nathan Brown, made a couple of cameo appearances as a substitute which included a brilliant run down tackle which may have saved the game against the Kangaroos. Had some outstanding games at VFL level and finished equal sixth in the best & fairest at Casey.

    AWESOME FOURSOME by Meggs

    The rejuvenated Demons out tussled the Tigers by 13 points to make it four wins on the trot on Saturday which means that the slight possibility of a finals appearance remains alive in 2024. This is despite the AFLW handicapping the Demons against their peers yet again (more later). Lots to celebrate as it was Kids Day at Casey Fields and both teams ran onto the ground modelling their Pride jumpers.   Kate Hore won the toss and kicked to the Clyde end. Thankfully, the notorious Casey

    MORE FIERCE by Meggs

    We’re back!  Winning the last three matches has recaptured our Demon spirit and, with superstar players returning from rehab, our Season 2024 dreams are not over yet.   So come along 5.05 pm Saturday afternoon to watch this Round 9 ladder-defining match at the Field of Dreams. Expect the Tigers to be fierce, but surely the Demons will be more fierce. Playing conditions are expected to be a dry 15 degrees with a typically gusty Cranbourne wind.

    THE TRADING CHRONICLES 03

    Part 3: Happier Days by Whispering Jack It would be fair to say that when the Melbourne Football Club entered the free agency and trade period earlier this month, its reputation was flagging, if not in tatters. The club was taking a battering in the media and social media over a number of issues, some real and others imaginary and even fabricated, relating to the running of the club, team performance and its culture, a build up that’s been taking place for more than twelve months.
