Yes potentially up to a dozen new faces likely. Some good opportunities to access new talent. Still hoping Hogan stays but seems more and more unlikely.

Tom McKenzie (Northern Knights) Get him in. 25/30 in goal kicking at combine and finished first at a 2.9 seconds in sprint Has the football skills and speed. I still think demons in with a chance to grab him if we keep the late 2nd round pick around 36-38.

Yes. I’ll keep Jesse if he wants to stay. But if his life is better with family in the Wild West than we all move out.

Shhhh. Lockhart is a late pick option around 60+. Depending on list spots available, Lockhart may be a rookie. He fits the small defender role perfectly, as a backup for Jetta. Good skills. Good strength over the footy.

Yes Max wants to preserve himself. It was a big year and Max was physically battered by the end. Preuss provides real relief, backup and support.

Yes kolofhgdjjkjki fills the half back quarterback role perfectly. Good news.

Yes Tyson has had chances but his turnovers outweigh his accumulation of the footy.

If Hogan goes, we have the coin to offer Gaff. 6 years for $900000 a year !!!

Top 10 now worth more interest to Demons fans if we get 1 or 2 with the probable Hogan deal heres some names 1- Sam Walsh 2- Jack Lukosius 3- Izak Rankine 4- Bailey Smith 5- Max King 6- Jack Bytel 7- Ben King 8- Conor Rozee 9- Riley Collier-Dawkins 10- Curtis Taylor

Yes it does not impact us. My point was to make sure Jesse gets a good deal. He is leaving for family reasons but want him to get his right $$$. I think Hogan was about ready to take his game to a new level in 2019. We need to get 2 x 1st rounders (maybe even Freo 1st pick in 2018 draft and Freo future 1st pick in 2019 draft)

Why May??? We have two very good key backs and Lever is back in 2019 we need outside pace we need a Kelly Shiel or Gaff now one is gettable

Yes Hogan was a Melbourne player. Our messiah. Big key forward described as the next Wayne Carey. Injuries and the go home factor mean we may not see his best in red and blue. MFC NEEDS TO MAKE FREO PAY TOP DOLLAR BOTH IN CONTRACT $$$ PLUS TWO FIRST ROUND PICKS

Need to do a strong deal i wanted hogan to stay but now must get in two top 10 picks.

It’s likely Taylor will have to find a few late draft gems. Late draft smokies or rookie chances include Lachlan McDonnell. Stingrays vfl Mitch Lewis. Casey vfl Laitham Vandermeer Murray u18s Jake Aarts Richmond vfl Each have some special skills and huge upside footy ability.

Yes too soon for full listing. Need to finalise free agent moves and trade deals. As is I can help with some possible names At pick 36-38 for MFC likely pick in 2nd round Mitch Riordan Stingrays u18s Tom McKenzie Knights u18s Toby Bedford (next gen MFC academy) Stingrays u18s Joe Ayton-Delaney Chargers u18s Fraser Turner Tas u/18s At pick 48-50 MFC pick from Crows likely to be VFL pickup such as Jay Lockhart Casey Marty Hore Collingwood vfl Sam Collins Werribee Corey Rich Frankston Chris Jansen nth Melb vfl

Agree. He could be a risk worth taking.

Yes yes yes to KK. (KK easier than Kolidhjjhfhdashji) he is skilled with excellent left foot delivery plus length physically ready to go the concussion issues are the point to discuss but I am confident MFC can help this be put behind him a risk but is exactly the player we need should be a pick 30-50 draft pick exchange. Kent’s Stkilda trade pick probably gets it done

Good call

Definitely want to keep Hogan. Definitely. But if he wants to go home and Freo did the right deal (2x 1st round picks) then Dees must work out the best outcome. Could Freo offer their current pick 6 (assume Suns get pick for Lynch compo)and Ed Langdon. That would be tempting.

He has the goods we need. Pace skills goal kicking

Kent to Saints Lonie to Kangas Preuss to Demons

Yes Kent for pick 57. Use it on youngster like Lachlan McDonnell (Stingrays) or VFL Upgrade like Marty Hore (Collingwood vfl)

May to Collingwood makes sense. Not to Melbourne. His cost and role would sacrifice too much. We need to get another classy outside mid such as Beams, Gaff, Kelly etc. skilled deliverer into the fwd50.

Preuss adds backup.
