    One little error in your summary, Kreuzer and Cotchin will not be at the same club.

    PS. Hope we play Hawks in Round 1 , no Hodge, Crawford and Lewis.

    Will Carlton be tanking in round 1 or will they field a full team?

    i cannot believe Yze Magic is so adament about Ken McGregor and Farren Ray.

    these 2 players are probably the last players id ever want on our list. they are exactly what we DONT want on our list making a fresh start in 2008 with a new coach.

    McGregor 26 yrs old!!! mediocre bits n pieces key position player. would be useful to plug holes down back and can go forward...pretty much a replica of Ben Holland, another one of our average key position players.

    we need to look at young (25 and younger) players who have real talent.

    McGregor= mediocrity!!!

    Farren Ray is pure and simple a mediocre outside soft midfielder. he was a high draft pick who has shown much less than sylvia (and that's saying something).

    Ray=mediocrity!!!

    the players we should go for in the trading period

    1) Chris Judd

    2) Cameron Wood

    3) Matt Maguire

    There are 3 categories that must be ticked if we are going to trade for a player.

    1) they are under 25 years old. otherwise they will be past their peak by the time we are challenging for a flag in 2-3 years

    2) they are quality people and quality players

    3) will fit straight into our starting 18 next year and add something to our side (i.e. dont trade for the sake of trading)!

    McGregor and Ray do NOT fulfil this critera and should not be considered. i wouldnt have either of those players even making MFC's starting 18 round 1 2008.

    It's understood Hawks will be playing Carlton on Good Friday - round 1 next year.

    The AFL will probably send us to Perth :rolleyes:

    We are more likely to head to Darwin! :angry:

    the other bit of YM/s dream that wont happen is Neita wont be BOG. Bit like treadrea at Port we can expect the big guy to get 7 goal bags in 2008 BUT he will demand 1st or 2nd key defender! but a good wish list YM

    That's one hell of a victory...

    But you made one mistake...

    Jud plays for Carlton apparently.

    Depending on how Hurley goes injury wise over the summer, Carlton will no doubt be looking for him to become their star backman and will tank from round 8 to get him!!!

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
