He still can play at AFL level quite nicely. Do you think if a team like Saints offered him a slot he'd go for it? (Some one closer to a flag) And I suppose the other question do you think another team would go for him? I personally believe there are clubs out there that could use junior for the next year or 2... I suppose if anything injury factor could be a concern for some

    Luke Ball couldn't get a game with them, Junior's disposal is just as iffy, plus playing on Etirock every week would take it's toll.

    Maybe Sydney could use him to replace Kirky?

    I wish him all the best whatever happens.

    The chances of another club chasing a 34yo mid are pretty much zero. He's not a Barry Hall type who will provide the last ingredient for a flag aspirant, most of the top 4 or 5 would consider their midfields a real strength. And I doubt Junior would put his hand up anyway.

    i can see him staying involved in the club, like when Anthony retired

    I heard that that's what his plans are

    This was just a stupid little comment from Hutchy on Good Call Bad Call, please don't take that as even any sort of rumour. Would not happen, but if i did happen to occur well then i would be very happy for Jnr

    Nope. Macca only had one year left in him anyway. Why uproot your family for a non contender for 1 season?

    Macca will find work quickly, he is a pretty intelligent guy.

    I'm a believer that he didn't have one year left in him. He's no Robert Harvey or Michael Tuck, he was slowing down toward the end of the season, and the amount of time it took him to get over his injuries was alarming. Let's face it, how many more weeks was Riewoldt out for with his hammy that he had surgery on, compared to Junior who "only" tore it?

    The best and most qualified people to know if he has/had one more year left in him are the Football Dept. They have made minimal errors of judgement in the past 3 years, so I put 100% trust in them. The other thing with Junior playing on in 2011 (especially at Melbourne) would be that he would put our development back 1 year. While that seems harsh considering he was only taking up one spot on list, what it does mean is that Jordie gets promoted off the rookie list, allowing us to replace him on the rookie list. No-one in here would have wanted to see Jnr play a bulk amount of his games at Casey, so the best decision was made.

    As someone said earlier, he is 34, no team will pick him up.

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • VOTES: Richmond

      Kozzy Pickett was the man of the match last week and has a vote lead over backup ruck Max Heath who didn't play this week and 5 votes over former Saint Jack Steele. Who gets the votes in this weeks shortened match win over the Tigers? Your votes please. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
