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: Port Adelaide

    With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
