Has Wade done a Houston on us?

Would appear so.

I’m so curious on who we get this offseason.

Not looking good.

    We're officially basket club status if Wade '0 games' Derkson is rejecting us

    I’ve no concern that he’s not coming as I had none when Houston knocked us back.

    I'm exactly the same although, as I've said previously, I am concerned with the amount of time and effort we have spent on this bloke when other, better options seem to have been ignored.

    If we get Miochek, send Petty back and retain May - there is no reason to trade for Derksen

    Lets be realistic here. We probably delisted defenders in the last few years that were more experienced and more proven than Derks so not a huge surprise.

    This is the most hilarious result after two years and 27 pages about a guy who has never played a game.

    For over a year, Dees say yes yes yes

    We are a joke !!! Who would want to join this circus anyway.

    Maybe his VFL form wasn’t impressive this year.

    I asked a few knowledgeable GWS posters on Bigfooty whether he was on the cusp of senior selection and they all said he was miles behind Taylor, Buckley and Alir for a defensive role.

    Sounds like King came in and said hell no to the Derk

    We now have a new coach who sees the game differently. We'd be a joke if we went through the process of sacking Goody and appointing a new coach and then trade for a player he doesn't want! If we changed our mind lets trust the process before bagging the club.

    Not fussed if it's true. A lot happens in a year. Derksen is supposedly a swingman, yet couldn't get a game despite GWS having heaps of injuries to key backs and forwards.

    If we were taking a low risk punt on spuds I’d rather Jacob Blight tbh

    If he is delisted by GWS, we can just pick him up in the PSD for nuffin!

    I think this give us an indication in King- he wants what he wants, and list fillers are out!

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

      Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
