I’m a little tired of all the drama player and board wise.

What I would like to see:

- injury free preseason for all Demon players and particularly Trac, Oliver, Gawn, Petty, Viney, Salem and May. Also McAdam to see if he can really play. Last preseason was really bad and it heavily impacted this year.

- new forward and midfield coaches.

- few board changes.

- one great draft pick and two good ones.

- get at least one if not two top 23 players in trading period. One May or Lever type quality player adds a lot to the team.

- we must have a bit up our sleeve in salary cap, use it wisely.

- good draw (Tigers twice)! Play Freo once!

- then stability. Board level down.

Agree with everything you want. Just remember, we will have to pay at least part of Gus's contract for the next 4 years out of the salary cap. Eg.

'25.Ā  Ā 10%

'26.Ā  Ā 25%

'27.Ā  Ā  50%

'28.Ā  Ā  100%

That means some juggling required. Thanks Brayden. 😠

I'd really love the club to sue Collingwood/AFL/Maynard to recoup those costs.

*No more scandles and innuendo.

*Fix our structural issues inside 50.

* Bolster our midfield mix through draft or trades.

* Remove the Rat from the ranks that keeps leaking info.

* Find a new president and CEO.

We need younger players with solid experience but with little or static improvement since 2021/22 to step up to the next level. They include, Sparrow, Chandler, Bowey, McVee and VDR. We need the chop out ruckman problem settled as it’s been stuffing up our key forward set up.Ā 

honestly us fans deserve to see a finals win. hopefully at the MCG. for this to happen we need to have a good preseason with few injuries, but it is definitely within our potential.

A Premiership. Same as every year. Since 2021 I have had to add, one that I can go to with my GF ticket guarantee šŸ¤žšŸ»šŸ”“šŸ”µ

We will see if C5PO follows his protocols….

I have zero hope we will win a flag in 25.

I think we won't even make the finals.

Our fwd line is still a mess.

Our midfield has imploded. Oliver's form all over the place. Tracca and Viney's murmurings about leaving. Injury cloud over Tracca.

Anb moved on.Ā 

It's hard to fathom how much we have fallen in three years.

Id like to be positive but it's extremely hard to do so the way we finished this year and all the off field anticsĀ 

Playing for the Mfc is a privilege and a few players need to recognize this.Ā 

I hope the club is lethal in it's pruning in the next few months. And despite our lack of depth, I hope next year players are relegated to the twos after insipid efforts and not constantly gifted games they don't deserve.

Deakyn Smith won the Casey B&F in 2023 and still got delisted.

Sestan averages 11-12 possessions and less than a goal per game. Ā He had some strong games 3-4 but missing below par in many others. Ā

McAdam

If this is the assessment, then I think KPP backman remains one of the key recruiting / development needs, that and/or the club needs to work out and stick to their guns on who of Petty/Turner are forwards and let the other solidify a role down back.

Personally, despite some glimpses I think the Petty forward experiment has failed and I'd rather see him down back again.

We've got a huge Steve May sized hole to fill when he retires.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking. Ā We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's Ā six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.Ā
