I don't know if Mickrocks and Jaded are related but their defeatist attitude makes me sick.

Let's not get our hopes high so the disappointment won't hurt as much. What bull.

It's WEAK. I don't know how u get out of bed.

Nope, not related, but probably just used to being disappointed when it comes to the MFC.

So, anymore exciting straws for us to clutch at this morning? :lol:

Take it for what it's worth Jaded (I know your disregard for SEN) but Greg Denham said on KB's show that the Bombers were pretty much out and that he thought the Pies couldn't do a deal (mainly because no one else would trade with them). He said Carlton were favourites but the Demons are still in it and really believe they are in with a chance. Denham is a bit of a tool, but there you go!

But what I would like to know is where is Chilliboy in all of this? This will be the biggest deal since RDB in 64.

Biffinator

i wonder where he is ?

could at least come up with some news right or wrong

I can't see why he would choose Carlton. Beyond Pratt's money, I can't see what they've got to offer that will appeal to him.

Carlton kind of remind me of the spoilt, fat, dumb rich kid in a school class. Doesn't learn anything, bullies everyone, spends his entire time at home playing playstation games all day and acts like a total ass, but gets by in life because Daddy has lots of money. Their solution to every and any problem is to just toss money at it. It makes me sick.

I agree. There was an article recently about how clubs just do have cultures and personalities. St Kilda's is built on having figureheads/"legends", Carlton's solution is always to throw cash, Collingwood is "us against them".... I don't want to get into what ours is:)

On Sen, Mark Doran said that the big whisper is that he will sign with Melbourne and he said its getting stronger each hour and is coming from good sources.

Also said Judd's manager is meeting him today for the first time since his op.

Good. Two days of good rumours is good. Don't give up yet Jaded :P

This is starting to drive me balmy, and worse is that I know we won't hear a dicky bird from the Juddernaught's mouth until Monday or Tuesday.

Well this is all nice to hear.....

Definately will be listening for the good oil sports update around 10 past 2.

Still not getting my hopes up. I just can't mentally handle him not signing with us if I get so hyped that he will sign with us.

The only decent source I have, still has Collingwood ahead of Melbourne.

This is a source that actually has come good plenty of times before, so I will choose to go with that over the crap they broadcast on SEN.

:)

Even if we don't land Judd, we would still have some good picks in the draft (we should still try and off-load Robbo to the dogs for their #5 pick), hell if it were me, i'd try and get another good pick after that as well (i don't think our senior group of players will win us a flag, better to face that reality now than in another 3 years time).

At least we would have some quality kids coming into our group of youngsters, further strengthening our list for an assault when they start to get more experience.

I'm with you on that...we have lots of tradeable players

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
