another one to be considered

Once a leg is broken like his was, that's it.

The game is too fast now you only have to talk to Nathan Brown.

Goose maybe excellent coach material down the line though. He was highly respected at linton st.

    Always thought he was a bit overrated, a no for me

    I thought they wanted to keep him big surprise,looks like ross does not rate heart if he is there with pick 54 take him,unless luke wants to come with us then we need the psd pick.

    Then again, SEN might not have made up that story at all.

    My contact at St. Kilda suggests that the delisting of McGuire was a little unexpected and there's some speculation that the Saints could be trying to make room under the salary cap to allow a new offer to be made to retain Luke Ball.

    Makes a bit of sense but didn't they offer him 500k for three years, surely they wont be going to offer him more

    Before a horror run of Injuries Goose was right up there with the best KP defenders in the comp. Sadly like many players injuries have shortened his career. He will get picked up this year being that it is a "thin" draft, however I cannot see how a side that is pushing for youth and speed can make use of a good footballer who has been slowed and is nearing 26 years of age.

    I wish him the best of luck finding a new home, can't see it being with the dees.

    I think we have enough KPBs. And fitness is an issue.

    Pass.

    I thinnk his past his injury and fitness worries.

    But we do have enough KPB's.

    I recon his a good footballer though not for us.

    Was never the same after lying on the ground for 10 minutes after a jab to the guts in a final.

    Funny bloke though.

    we have enough backs ?? really .. not quite on that page with you guys.

    Not sure how we would actually get him but if fitness proved he might be worth an interested look at.

    We have enough KpB

    Martin

    Frawley

    Garland

    Rivers

    Warnock

    Adding goos to the list would take of those players spots/ another players spot on the actual list.

    Martin and Garland may play forward.. a fit Goose would eat Rivers for ability to take a forward.. frawley and Warnock are good. Martin is even pinch hittin gin ruck..his future may not be down back at all. We'll wait and see if Garland comes up to it this year

    A back line up including Warnock Frawley and Maguire wouldnt be too shabby.

    I wont a top team...not a team of my 'fav" players.. who cares whose out there in Red and Blue as long as they respect the jumper and give their all.

    its not a mates party !! its AFL footy

    I'd look closely at him, but only really if the FD thought he could play forward. His pace is a worry for me down back, but he is one of the best contested marks in the league.

    Sam Blease certainly hasn't helped his situation any Good by breaking his leg, Fortunately as he is still Growing he should be ok.

    Bones heal better when they are still Growing. But only time will tell.

    I don't think so, too injured with his lower leg.

    It's possible the Saints have delisted the Goose to make salary cap room to keep ball.?

  • Quote

    Be very surprised if anyone picked him up let alone us

    is he fit ?? it may not be the issue it was..it might be.. do we know ??

    Go after him I say he is 25 had a year of recovery in the VFL and is no longer pigeonholed as a backman considering he kicked 5 goals on more than one occasion for Sandringham this year. Is only 25 and fits in with our youth policy. Would be silly not to look at him.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
