I would be more interested in Quinton Lynch than Travis cloke personally, Cloke is a great contested mark granted, but he wants far more than he is worth unless he is in top form for 5 years straight, Lynch would cost far less, and fill the second tall role then we have more money to spend on getting our midfield up to scratch, i'd be tempted to mix up howe's time forward abit, he is too good a mark not to have in a dangerous position more of the time, then throw strong offers to Clint Young and Shannon Byrnes to get abit of experience, quality disposal and hard bodies into the mix and throw the kitchen sink at goddard, he may be gone but if there is any chance he would be well worth it, his on and off the field contribution would be huge for the young players and fans, if we get all of that, we would be a much different side next year, Boak would be an ideal addition to our midfield, not sure how realistic getting him is but we have the picks and we have the money so i suppose there has to be some chance there

What we need right now is some 'Ready to go' A grade talent . To me it doesn't matter if these free agents have only got 2 or 3 years left . Free agency is an 'Every year' thing so we can dip our toes

Shane Tuck would be a good pick up, shouldn't cost too much and really knows how to find the ball. Would definitely be an upgrade on someone like Moloney. Am very keen on Clint Young as well, offers

Tuck is no longer available signed a 1 year deal AFL Website

That's disappointing. Although he is 30 I really rate him and it wouldn't have been ridiculous for us to offer him 2 years, especially not having played a heap of footy earlier in his career. His body seems to hold up fine at the moment.

Might be cut n paste article, but very usefule to clarify FA rules. I wasn't aware that RFAs could be traded if their original club matches the offer.

What would happen is Player A agrees to go to Carlton.

Player A's Club says we will match that and then the player either says fine I will stay or reject it and 'elect' or 'threaten' to go into the draft.

Carlton can then negotiate with Player A's club for a trade, should a trade not substantiate - that player can go into the draft.

So it is still a complicated mess and the RFA still has the right to go into the draft should they not want to re-sign with their club.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
