Would be happy to have him at the club if he doesn't cost much. He was a star junior, but has had trouble adapting up there on the Gold Coast. He has been homesick and wanting to come home to Victoria to be with family. He also had a niggling ankle injury preseason which meant he isn't as fit as he should be at the moment. A healthy mind and body is what he needs. If he is back home in Vic, gets fitter over preseason, he could be a very good get for us. He has a booming kick and could become out kick-out specialist, similar to Guerra/Suckling at the Hawks. Has the talent! I'd say get him cheaply if we can!

 

played 5 games and averaged a whopping 3.6 touches per game

Where do we sign up?

Highly-rated-by-consensus juniors sometimes just don't live up to expectations.

Worth reposting over on the various "should we take Viney at 3" threads, where people are constantly salivating over any number of "highly-rated-by-consensus juniors", and doing themselves physical harm because we mightn't be able to take them because we're locked into Viney.

Could be a cheap pick up for us, offer a late draft pick or we could pick him up in the PSD for nothing.


Do we want a Toy of a player...or a real one ?

Still no trade done for Toy as yet.

Similar to Jacobs, we should get in his ear and if a trade doesn't go through have him nominate for the PSD so we could potentially grab him there. Either he or Jacobs depending if they were available?

Would it be worth taking a punt on Toy and offering all of our late picks to GC for him. He looks like he may go for free otherwise. GC could then give the picks out to people on Surfers Paradise beach.

They dont need heaps of picks, i think they will help him get to any club for nothing at all really, see morton. Due to his condition ect, and they obviously havnt been offered anything under 50 i imagine.

Think I would be happy if we got him even if he couldn't play. Just make today a bit better. If he was ok, he could be a steal.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
