we could possibly snare him for 3 years, as geelong are looking to trade him in order to make Blake stay.

King is a solid, strongly built ruckmen and even though he is getting old, he still has 2-3 years left in him.

    i'd like him, but if we're getting Meesen, King is out of the equation

    Especially as the club is huuuuuge on the young era <23

    too old. dont get over exited by just one good game in the granny. remember that he couldnt get into the side when blake was there, despite being in "great form". We also dont want two old bodies (white and king) to carry us for two/three years before they drop off, leaving us with who? jamar as our no. 1 ruckman in 2010. i dont think so.

    Word is pick 9 is on the table for Blake. If they can get pick 9 for Blake, they will take it and Re-sign King.

    If the Blake deal falls through, King is as good as gone.

    I think if we are after Meeson, Getting king also is going a tad overboard. Our ruckstocks would then be White, jamar, Pj, Messon, King.

    That is a flat-out joke. Pick 9 for Blake? That is madness, and this is definitely not Sparta.

    Pick 9 for Blake

    Wow

    Geelong will be set up for the next decade if they can win flags then get top 10 picks

    Geez

    Read the paper, you actually posted the snippet from the paper YM.

    Short memory. I do not come on here and make stuff up.

    Pick 9 is on the table. Go and read it! (Although my personal opinion is that plenty of smokes and mirrors are being used around yet interesting yet lackluster trade week)

    Too old.

    Thankfully, the Club have come out and said we're looking for our next Premiership to be based around our younger brigade (which is only common sense, but that's not a common trait ).

    I think White is close to retirement from AFL & will probably finish his current contract, not sure when that is, poss' next season. Therefore with White, Jamar, Pj, poss' Meeson, for this season we'll probably rookie one.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
