Having traded with GCS for pick 2, I was surprised that we then bid on their player at that pick ...

...so much for the theory of 'deals' when trading!

Is it sort of an unspoken agreement that clubs won't do that with a pick traded in like that? Just trying to understand why it was a surprise and what the purpose was.

Nice to have draftees who are friends as well. Important for young ones!

It was a surprise to me as, like you I thought there was an unspoken agreement not to especially if you want to trade with them again.

Very risky to blind side them if we indicated we wouldn't bid so I assume GCS weren't surprised.   No idea what the purpose of us bidding was.

I thought there might have been some purpose to this that I was missing! If there was no agreement, could it have been sort of on principle or because we could? I'd like to think we wouldn't go against an agreement, so maybe there wasn't one. Anyway, I'm just trying to understand the process better but maybe no answer to this one!

The only thing I can think of is if, in regards to Havana Harris, we are are "marking her card".  In other words, we have let her know we rate her very highly, so should she ever decide she wants to leave GC she just might consider nominating us as her preferred destination. 😉

Sounds good to me!

Gold Coast had picks 19, 27, 30, 41 & 46. My understanding is that if any team bid on Havana Harris then GC had to match the bid within the next 18 picks (they pretty much get a one round discount). So if any of the first 8 teams with picks were to bid for Harris they were always going to have to cough up pick 19. In other words it didn’t really matter who bid on her. It also explains why they didn’t mind giving up pick 2 for Mithen.

Assume the first 3 picked will Centra, Harris (bid) and then we take Molly. 

Toot toot

We must rate Havana since we may have got her and missed Molly. In the words of Camila Cabello ‘Half of my ❤️ 💙 is in Havana’.

AFLW bids must be matched by a pick within a round (basically up to 18 lower) so by bidding at 2 we forced GC17 to match with their 19 rather than potentially their 27 if she somehow didn’t get bid on until 9, which I think was very unlikely.

  • 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.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    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.
