I havn't heard much talk about this guy.

He is a FA at the end of the year and I was interested to see if people think he would be worth chasing?

Would add class,spread and work ethic to our side. Could be a big help to the younger guys.

    Freo going to go hard at him once Cloke signs apparently.

    Funny enough the whole Cloke saga has suspiciously died down this week...

    Provided Clark's foot comes up OK, and I guess it will be a while before anything definite is known, then Goddard would probably offer us more options then would Cloke. He would be a huge pick up!

    I liked the idea a few months ago, but have cooled since.

    We should focus our energies on the draft: building a strong, two-tiered squad of talented youngsters (Trengove / Watts / Gysberts et al & the 2012 class).

    I would have to say no.

    Would be getting old now and would like to see the money go to Beams or Boak.

    Stating to slide slowly in his workrate & hurt factor. Passe'.

    I'd rather Boak @ age 23ish.

    Not for me. He's been in the system now for a decade, is late 20's and has played his best footy.

    Yup would rather concentrate on getting the Mids right, but...... as some of the older players are soon to drop off (prob very soon) we do need a few generals around the place if we could get him without going out on a limb, then do it. If the saints have a bad finish to the season then he might be tempted. Having Mission at the dees may help.

    According to Brad Hardie, Cloke has now been offered 7 years by the dees. Didn't Mark Robinson say that Cloke would be signed at Collingwood by last Friday????? I'm thinking the Cloke saga may be far from over

    If we offered him 7 years our board and management would be totally incompetent and Brad Hardie would be less relevant than I thought.

    We wouldn't be THAT stupid would we?? Would we............?

    No. Goddard's output is on the wane yet he's still going to command huge coin from some club. It shouldn't be us.

    I'd offer a more modest two year deal to Chappy if the Cats only offer him one.

    Get Goddard, he and Jordie would be a great teaming (TFIC)

    What give up pick 3 or 4 for him, no way. And 13 (kennedy) could end up a young anything, even a young Shayne Crawford type.

    Don't want any expensive soon to be past its. I don't mind if we take a mature player with a 5th Rnd pick & $$$.

    Would be great for our culture, toughness, and on-field spirit IMO.

    Goddard's a free agent.

    Very good player but don't think he's the midfield general that we're after. Lenny Hayes leads the way down there at Seaford (still sounds weird saying that).

    I'd prefer Boak. Think he's more capable of leading the midfield.

    My info says he wants to get to the Blues.

    Exactly i wouldn't be paying lots of coin for Goddard, he isn't overly that quick and tends to fade out of games ( although he is a good user of the pill we need both speed and skill) . Would Rather we pay for a Cloke Boak Caddy or Beams

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
