I know peoples opinions are deeply divided on young Cale.

He put contract talks on hold until the season was over.

What are peoples thoughts on if he will re-sign or move elsewhere?

Could he be the GWS fallback option???

    He'll be re-signed in due course IMO. Needs a new coach more than any player on our list.

    Agreed.

    Needs and actual role.

    Re-signed for sure.

    Still very much a required player with much upside and i think a new coach will do him the world of good.

    Cale has absolutely no currency on the trade market, the question is whether he has more up side than the third/fourth/fifth round draft pick (depending on how many we delisted).

    As much as he frustrated me and you demonlanders, I think we may be better off keeping him. He may end up as another Sylvia "AFL's biggest under-achievers" but at worst we can have a perpetual scapegoat.

    I would love to see him resign. I'm still a big wrap for him. He is one of many that has had a really bad run with injury and if he can get some consistency and confidence I think he can live up to the lofty expectations we have all placed on him.

    A new coach.

    A big pre-season in the gym.

    Renewed confidence.

    = the Andrew Embley style star.

    Agreed.

    I see him as a lead up forward in the Matty Richardson mould.

    Has the engine for the current game style of pressing up the wing.

    He will run his opponent into the ground and is surprisingly good overhead.

    Just needs to stack on a few more kilo's over the summer.

    I think that the fact, that he isn't signed already, means he's on thin ice, and we're probably waiting to see IF any offers are floated about, to way up?

    I wasn't quite sure how I felt about Cale Morton until I saw this post. Perfect summary, matter of fact, no drama. Nice work Nasher.

    I reckon he's on track to be All Australian.

    Great call. I haven't given up on Cale but then again I'm a happy clapper.

    Anyone think we just should've gone a Selwood before Maric?

    Seriously, this draft is full of some flakes. All been hit and miss in some way or another. May as well give him another couple of years.

    (The top 2, Harry Taylor, Grimes and obviously Cyril are of course excluded from the above. Cyril does not belong in this draft!)

    He is gone! Get him out of here....

    Trade him to GWS for one of there 17 year olds.

    Some serious talent there, all chronically injured. Could certainly still turn out a super-draft yet.

    100% agree. A new coach who takes a different approach and gives him a clear idea of what he has to do in the team will work wonders for him. It would help if he knew what position they want him to play too.

    I do hope so but even with a new coach I think it will be 2 years at least until the best is seen of Morts.

    • 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?

      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.

      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?
