Definitely. Glad he got picked up after a really good season in the VFL last year - Pity he has to go all the way over West! Good luck to him.

Also agree- we will need to look at our tall backline at Casey with Faulks & Silvagni now gone.

I have mixed feelings on this. It is wonderful that he's been given a chance at AFL level, but now he has the double blow of having to pack his bags and move to Perth with the added slap of being on Fremantle's list. I would have been happier for him if he'd wound up with a local club with decent prospects. However, all in all being on an AFL list is a good thing, so well done I guess.

What a joke.

The guy is a mature aged player who has been given a chance to play AFL at Fremantle - I'm sure he is devastated.   ;)

Exactly. He'd be beside himself with excitement at the opportunity. He'd just be desperate to play I reckon.

I'm quite sure he would be over the moon to get onto an AFL list, even as a rookie.

But perhaps not as stoked as Pods getting on Geelong's list. ;)

Being picked up by Freo is awesome!

Just look at Croad, McPhee, Brodie Holland, James Clement, Peter Bell, Jess Sinclair the list goes. All you have to do is stay a couple of years and get traded to a victorian club and you will have a great career.

Probably more opportunity to get a chance at AFL level with Freo.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
