Not bidding on Sam Marshall with either 5 or a second first round pick will be part of the trade value for Brisbane. I really like him and would love to bid with a pick in the 9-11 range.

I doubt this deal will happen quickly.

We need to secure that extra first rounder if we can.

Brisbane need to do a deal with Richmond for pick 20 out and a stack of picks worth points in.

Then we'll probably look to do some kind of trade where we give them 40, 49, 54, 65 in return for 32 and Sharp.

He was pick 43 in the 2020 draft on the brissy website. We lost Jordan and got pick 39 from Sydney for him. So figure it will be around this mark or as articles say a combination of later picks. 

we got a compensation second round pick for jj - he left as a free agent, not as a trade

 

He’s a good runner and competes. Could fill the half forward or half back role.  I’m a Yes. Pick 54 seems about right.  
Probably deal could include us not bidding on Sam Marshall as a gentleman’s agreement 🤔


Once we don't give up too much this is a very clever pick up

He looks pretty pumped in that picture to be coming over!

Has played 16 games over 4 years included 6 as sub

Lions have the best depth in the league so no shame in that

Great left-field moneyball pick up

Please explain the moneyball aspect to this recruitment?

Time to re-hang the sign out front of Gosch’s Paddock.


Hope that Derksen is still on the cards too. Both of them could wind up failures like Fullarton, but at least it'd be positive to get in some players that are young but not 18yo.

With Campbell and sharp as possible ins, how many more spots do we have? 
would have to think this closes the door on derksen, and squishes the chances down of yze and mentha both getting a gig. 

Below average in every stat which is a little concerning. 

Yes he can run but no point being an elite runner when you cannot get the ball.

Brown, Brayshaw, Hunter, ANB, Schache out so far.

Likely: J Smith? Tomlinson?

Possible: Hore? Oliver?

At least 7, could be 9 out. Plus Cat B rookie KFW.

3 ins: Kentfield (r), Campbell, Sharp

Still 4-6 spots plus cat B. Mentha is cat B at best IMO. 

4 good picks in the national draft, Yze or another rookie maybe, Derksen or some other mature player (perhaps Hore).

18, 13 (both wing), 12 (half forward) in his 3 full games this year, averages about 20 touches in his VFL games.

It’s not his strength but I don’t think he’ll struggle to get the ball.

Hopefully forms part of getting their 1st rd pick 

Would potentially have to give up our FF1 plus 2024 picks to get 20; Tigers have a better hand to offer Bris for pick 20

Mitch Cleary reporting that the Harry Sharp deal will happen soon.

Hope we can get Sharp and 32 for our combo of late stuff (whilst also keeping flexibility to get a future 1 and a late throw at the stumps for the Derka)

  • 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 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.
