We won't be giving them pick 5# under any circumstances. That would be an utterly moronic decision. Essendon are better loading up on points to get Isaac Kako. Otherwise they will waste pick #9 when an early bid comes in from any team that highly rates Isaac Kako. The smarter thing would be for them to give us pick #9 and we will give them in return our future first rounder (for 2025), and picks 28, 40, 48, 53, and 64 in this year's draft. They can then use all these points to take Isaac Kako if an early bid comes in. Unfortunately, this is only wishful thinking as I doubt Essendon would do this. Worth a try for Jason Taylor to ask though?! This is probably the Demons best shot to try and get 2 picks in the top 10 of this year's AFL Draft.

Looks like Damien "Purple" Barrett has been reading Demonland. He's calling for Gary Pert's head now too.... Here is the article: https://www.afl.com.au/news/1241651/barrett-hurting-melbourne-demons-must-act-to-stop-three-year-implosion

This is the type of elite high-performance facility with the very latest equipment we need to have at our Home Base at Caulfield Racecourse (hopefully). The best of the best for all our Melbourne Demons players.

Would love the Demons to have 2 top 10 picks in this year's AFL Draft. But one top 10 pick (currently #5 moving to #6) and maybe a pick in the top 20 would be wonderful. It seems like we have too much competition for Gold Coast's pick 11#, but hopefully we could snare one of Fremantle's picks or maybe Brisbane's or even GWS? Essendon might give up pick #9 due to their NGA prospect Isaac Kako possibly going quite high in this year's draft. But I doubt they want to give up their first round pick this year.

Sadly, correct. 2024 is a total write off. Dan Houston ghosted us like a Tinder date. Although we did get Tom "Dinosaur" Campbell as a back up ruckman and we may get Wade "Diggler" Derksen from GWS?

If you asked me this time last year I would of said yes. At the moment, we are seen as "unsettled" as a Club. Hopefully, once both the external reviews are completed we will have a better idea of where the Melbourne Football Club stands.

It's interesting watching Tim Lamb think before giving his answers. I respect that. You can tell he is being very prudent with what he says. Dan Houston losing interest in coming to the Demons is definitely a concern though. We want to be a "destination Club" for star AFL players.

Possibly? I like the look of Finn O'Sullivan myself. Here are his highlights:

Great highlights! Fritta's goal was amazing against Geelong! It is definitely my number 1# goal of the year.

Agreed. That's just mean-spirited and counter productive for the entire Melbourne Football Club.

It would be quite fascinating to be there while Jason Taylor and the rest of the recruitment staff discuss all these hypotheticals about who they think will be drafted where and what their strategies would be.

Lunch then? I understand he wants to join the Melbourne Football Club Board, but so would I, if I was a multimillionaire. But we can't always get what we want.

I should mention that I don't have "the knives out" for Gary Pert. Up until recently I thought he has done an excellent job as CEO of the Melbourne Demons. I just wanted to keep Clayton Oliver at the Demons. Interim President Brad Green has said that Clayton Oliver isn't going anywhere, so I am relieved. However, this news article (if true) does have me greatly concerned: https://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/afl-2024-tensions-between-melbourne-ceo-gary-pert-key-club-officials-coach-simon-goodwin-future-questioned-alan-richardson-problems-at-demons/news-story/464bd24e03de5dbad68e6920037dff36

Yes, well it was a waste of hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal expenses. Something the Melbourne Football Club don't have the luxury to afford. I note that interim President Brad Green spoke about "unity" at the Melbourne Football Club last night. Hopefully he can offer the "olive branch of peace" to Peter Lawrence so that all of this can be resolved. If he can sit down and meet Joe Gutnick for a coffee then he can do the same with Peter Lawrence.

Xavier Lindsay is an excellent kick. Would definitely like to see the Demons draft him. Here are some of his highlights:

If anyone from Demonland was there tonight, did they see Clayton Oliver? Tell him we all love him and want him to stay a Demon! ❤️💙👹

Pick 25# and pick 42# would be acceptable. Could then package them up in a deal to Brisbane or Gold Coast for first round picks.

That would be fantastic if the Demons could fluke something like that! I would literally be over the moon if we could get 3 picks in the top 20!

I thought it would be either Max Gawn or Jack Viney. Very close! Jack Viney now has 2 Melbourne Best & Fairests, the same as his Dad, Todd! Well done! Go Demons in 2025! ❤️💙👹 Nibbler getting 3rd should hopefully bump up his trade value to the Crows. 😉

Amazing speech from Angus Brayshaw. He bleeds red and blue. ❤️💙 The whole room was up to give him a well deserved standing ovation. Hopefully, Angus Brayshaw stays involved at the Club in a coaching role (if he wishes to).

Livestream starts at 7:25pm. Here is the link on the website: https://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/1671770/live-stream-best-and-fairest Hopefully Clayton Oliver shows up? 🤔

Fingers crossed the Demons can get this deal sorted with Gold Coast. 🤞

He could be a handy replacement for Nibbler?🤷‍♂️

So are we getting pick 25# from the Crows for Nibbler?

Is Cooper Hynes an elite kick though? We need better kicks at the Demons. Would much rather Xavier Lindsay.
