    One more thing about Judd coming to Melbourne - if by some miracle CAC and co pull it off we'll have to make substantial room in the salary cap to pay him. That means one of three things will have to happen:

    1. Delist players who are out of contract

    2. Current players take a pay cut to afford him

    3. We trade one or more of our high paid players to make room

    2 is unlikely, we'd probably have to delist 4 or 5 to make up Judd's income so 3 is the most logical move. Players that would be an option would have to be our most highly paid guys eg Neitz, White, Bruce, Yze, Green

    I could be wrong but I think only half of Neitz and Yze's money counts as they are or will be veteran's next year. Bizzell and Pickett in particular would be looking at substantial paycuts next year if they stay as both are out of contract at the end of this year. Replacing a couple of experienced players (ie. Ward) with a kid also saves a fair bit. Would be very surprised if we found it that difficult to find room in the cap.

    Melbourne at the end of this year will be in the best position its been in a long time to trade for a big name.

    A likely high draft pick

    A few players out of contract who will take pay cuts

    Fair amount of room in the salary cap with Neitz and Yze on the vets list.

    I think its a maximum of 2 and they have to be 30+ and played with the club for at least 10 years.

    Miller+Green+ 1st pick most likely in the top 5, i don't think that WC would go 4 any less than that\

      Recent meetings between Melbourne and Carlton have developed a striking and somewhat familiar narrative, underscored by a series of closely contested encounters ultimately decided by narrow margins. The Blues have won out on each of the past four occasions:-

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      Melbourne’s early surge of optimism came crashing back to reality in its clash with Fremantle at Optus Stadium on Saturday night. Just six days after unveiling its fun-filled, attack-minded style against the Saints, the Demons were met by a Dockers outfit determined to shut it down with a blend of speed, pressure, and physicality.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      The Casey Demons faced a tough first up task taking on reigning VFL premiers Footscray at Mission Whitten Oval. The Bulldogs, who unfurled their premiership flag pre-game, had 15 AFL-listed players and their top VFL talent available, setting them up for their 15th consecutive win.

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      The Demons were fumbly, inefficient, outrun and outgunned all over the field as they went down to the Dockers by 48 points at Optus Stadium in Perth.
