Rumour that he's going to trial with Collingwood under strict fitness and behaviour requirements and could be selected as a mature age rookie.

Precaution against Cloke's imminent departure?

Precaution against Cloke's imminent departure?

And Dawes inability to mark a footy.

Bit of a leap from the Ovens & Murray Football League though. I wouldn't have thought Collingwood would be 'that' desperate. Watching him play for Casey on a few occasions....he's just a player from another era. I'm not sure he's ever heard the term 'forward defensive pressure' muttered..

when we played against him this year we kept him to 3 goals at 3qtr time. we thought beauty because by then he had been sent off and body language was shitouse and our fullback who is one of the best in the comp completely shut him! the last qtr he exploded and kicked 7 straight. i thought to myself this bloke should be still in the AFL and if he got his [censored] together the ability is still there. needs to trim down a fair bit though..

good on him i say. has been a masterstroke up here in the country. has a long way too go but you get the sense that if he was given a go he would give it his all not stuff up again. talking to a few yarra mates they said his attitude has been pretty first class. but then again yarra have a few drop kicks there..

Couldn't play any worse than what Cloke is playing at the moment & he is asking for 8 times the amount of coin.

Cloke has 50 goals for the year though...

Rumour from where? Surely you made this up.

Thanks for the details, he is such an enigma as a player. He can kick goals out his khyber but just doesn't seem to suit the modern game. Who knows he may still kick 50 goals in a season but is a massive massive gamble and liability.

Hilarious isn't it, he's a spud yet has 45 goals (9th in comp), 1st in contested marks, 5th in marks inside the F50.... Dees are crying out for another one of those players.

Jeez those stats are damning for the critics

I don't know that he's that big a risk. If he doesn't turn out, big deal. The opportunity cost is tiny and you're probably going to get kudos for giving the guy a 'second' chance; if he screws up it'll be on him.

That said, I'd be very surprised to see him on an AFL list again.

read the article moron, he didnt do his knee, stop reporting crap. he landed awkwardly and stayed on the ground ffs

But in a possible blow to Pigeons' flag aspirations, Fevola finished the game on the bench with a knee injury.(second line)

SEN today said it was a PCL

No...the Fev one is probably incorrect.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
