And we should try and get rid of Bruce. I don't care if he has just signed a contract, he will not win us a premiership, none of the senior players will, get rid of them now whilst they still have value. (this excludes Neita of course)

I've got a feeling that they might save Bruce for Trade next year, just a gut feeling.

I'd like to see him gone for suitable trade.

aha. bailey made his decision on johnstone a long time ago because one of the questions in his job interview was whether he would trade or keep TJ. i recon TJ should stay but if we get jolly and pick 11 and finally get rid of miller, we are really on to something

I've got a feeling they want Bruce to get back to his best form, and carving up the opposition teams with elite fitness, and ability to go forward and kick goals!

When he is on song, Bruce is a star!!!!!

I will back Bailey 100%

if he trades someone, I will support his decision

If he keeps the list together, I will support that

Everyone will become different and better under Bailey

We desperately need to trade for a good pick. We have to many good players and not enough guns. TJ for pick 11 looks ok. If we have to throw in something extra.

We have to fit Wheels, Bartram, Rivers , maybe Pettard back in . Plus keep Newton, Dunn, Bate etc in.

I say get early picks and use them well.

Let the Maggs trade themselves out of this draft. I would give the Maggs our pick 4 for Ben Reid if they want Judd.

Will Ben Reid be better than who is potentially available in this draft though - that's the $64 question. I think it's immaterial anyway. I think West Coast will tell Judd they won't trade with Collingwood and he'll have to make do with the tankers.

Personally don't want Jolly back. He left because he wanted to be a No.1 ruckman and now that he isn't No.1 ruckman at the swans he wants to be No.1 ruckman for Melbourne after Whites gone. So a big NO from me over that deal.

Any news on Meesan though? I dont know much about him but he sounds alright...thoughts?

He was a crucial member of the two premiership sides of 1992 and 1994 playing as a wingman who with Dean Kemp and Peter Matera formeed a damaging centreline. He was the type of player who could turn a game off his own boot with a flash of brilliance but equally would put his body on the line when it mattered.

This is what a star does, ("would put his body on the line")

according to the herald sun the club has not looked to trade trapper and stressed he still has 1 year left to run on his contract...

Trapper is worth way more than Jolly! If Jolly is coming back home, then Jamar and PJ may be playing elsewhere next year.

Big risk trading trapper- when he is hot he is our best!

That is one of the best posts I have seen form you for ages Y_M and I agree with it completely........

I am not so sure there will be a hell of a lot of trading done this year, maybe one, or two at the very outside, for this very reason and we can only hope that the team that we have seen run out for the last umpteen years, will be refashioned and reprogrammed into what we want them to be.

Bailey has given good tough signs of change already and hopefully his treatment of his team will be no exception.

And frankly I am really looking forward to seeing what he may be able to do with a few of our chronic under performers (some if not most of whom will still be playing whether people here like it or not). That is not to say that I don't want us to go after someone who will improve our list, but whether there are changes or not within the list it is wise to remember that there is a massive change at the helm and hopefully the attitude as a result, and that is a great place to start.

Johnstone for a player that knows what it takes to win a premiership and actually cares that he is playing football is a fare trade if you ask me. Johnstone has, and always will be, an uninterested waste of talent. By all means, he could have been just as good, if not better than Judd. Instead he is a gambler, alcoholic, spoiled brat that earns too much and has never reached his full potential, albeit in flashes. Stuff him.

    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.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    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

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
