Just announced that Addam Maric has been offered an opportunity to train with Tigers.

Interesting to note that seven clubs have applied to the AFL for permission for players to train.

MFC are not one of the seven.

AFL clubs give delisted players opportunity to train before draft.

I think you are spot on however it was thought he would go to North at draft time. Tigers may end up at having two Marics come start of season time.

Reckon its probably good to start just with the players already listed - get those boys going, then bring in the "permission to train" players a few weeks later when the players already on our list are flying. It'd better show the unlisted players exactly what they need to do to possibly earn a spot.

With Maric its probably different because he has been around before and knows what preseason is all about.

When are the lists officially lodged/released? Every monday/tuesday?

Maric did mention in a puff-piece article on the weekend this year was the first year he did a full pre-season, so I guess this would make it only his second full go at it.

Hard to believe he is still only 21! Good luck to everyones favorite emo if he gets a go somewhere else, I can just see the blurb now "The best pure kicker in the draft", "A solution to our teams crumbing needs" etc etc.

They off load Nason & then look interested in Maric? Interesting.....

You raise a valid point. Nason in his initial year showed pace and accuracy.I also thought they had enough small forwards. Training doesn't guarantee a listing though!

Maric has the scope for midfield or half forward flank, i wouldnt call him a small forward at all

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play
