Now that John Meesen has been acquired for pick 37, we will definitely have our pick 3 in the Pre-Season Draft available to use on another player.

Who would everyone like to see us pick up? Know of any uncontracted players who might do the PSD shuffle? Any up and coming 2nd tier leaguers (VFL, WAFL, SANFL) who may be worth a punt? Post your thoughts here.

Would we have to take Valenti in the PSD if we want him?

I think I have heard people suggest he could be rookie drafted, no? If we can get him as a rookie I would rather do that first, but seeing him in Sandy's best most weeks would probably be enough for me to see the man taken in the PSD.

Has a deal been struck with Damon White yet? The other name mentioned (whose contract status I'm unsure of) is Ben McKinley from West Coast.

Brennan?

obviously if we were in the race for judd we have the $$$$

if he is available at pik three of pre season draft.. could we somehow have a chin wag with him and get him on board?

he showed something this yr

Good shout Goose. I read somewhere that Essendon might be trying to get him in a trade or the PSD. We would be mad not to try and steal in before them and snatch him up. I think Essendon were offering $300k per season though... Would we pay that much for an erratic forward?

Essendon would be rather miffed, although they and Mal Michael did very much shaft Brisbane last year. If they tried essentially the same trick again I'm sure Brisbane at least would enjoy them getting a backhander.

A massively engorged 'NO' to Jared Brennan. If we're getting rid of TJ for off-field reasons, why would we pick up an absolute clown who has played fewer than five good career games and makes Johnstone look like Mother Teresa?

Engorged... well in that case we better forget him. I know he's a loose cannon, but surely he's young enough that if somebody gets into his head he could be turned around. I suppose you could argue that if Leigh Matthews can't, then who can. Huh.

i think our best bet is to pick up a player like Moran from tha kangas...he is a proming young ruckman and would be a steal in the psd.

also known that we are interested in him.

then we can delist jamar, and have White, Meeson, PJ and Moran as our 4 ruckman. with white close to retirement and PJ showing he is a more than capable backup ruckman, that leave us with 2 highly rated and talented developing ruckman to take over White eventually.

remember people, that if we dont pick up guyz like Meeson and Moran we're gonna have to waste plenty of draft picks trying to find White's replacement. better off finding his replacemnet thru the psd

Jamar won't be delisted. He just signed a 2 year deal.

it was speculated he was offered a contract...clearly MFC would wait to see what happens during trade week before finalizing any contract.

hasnt confirmed signed yet

my thoughts exactly, id love to get bolton from sydney in the PSD but if he did go there tigers and blues would get him first, we have pick 3 so we will get the 3rd best player available, both tigers and blues have room in their salary cap too.

Just mentioned on Channel 10 news that Carlton are trying to entice Brisbanes defender Josh Drummond into the PSD by offering him a 3 year, $1,000,000 contract

Where are they getting this money from?

ANyways, we should be able to get a pretty good player at number 3 considering everyone who is out of contract

Two names for PSD

TODD GRIMA - Get around him. Being one of his good mates i say pick the boy up. He was well in the mix for the VFL team of the year and he will add height and also enthusiasm to the team. Mark my words people he will be a star. Bails you have to go after him. Well after talking to Todd apparently we are after him but GO HARDER BAILS. What do you guys think.

The other is Jude Bolton. Come on why wouldnt we want him.

2008 - The year of the Demon. ;)

BS! I have heard too many rumors for that one? So are you saying that we have "talked" to him or that we are after him?

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.
