Keeping the 'Jack' tradition going at Melbourne!

The Age is reporting that Garlett will be training with Essendon. Presumably with permission.

Bombers set to hand Garlett an AFL lifeline

And Kurt Tippett presumably doesn't have permission.

Wasn't Sam Colquhoun meant to train with Port Adelaide?

And wasn't Ricky Bobby having a dip with Richmond?

Interesting that no former Demons are being given a shot elsewhere.

I'm surprised at how much height we want on the list. Hannath would be behind Jamar, Spencer, Gawn as rucks and Pederson and Fitzpatrick as fwd/rucks.

I believe he was having issues with his achilles.

Maybe even with Fitz

Don't see Dayle Garlett on Essenscum's list jack?

Did I miss something with Ben 'better pickup than Mitch Clark' Hudson training with Collingwood. I thought he retired or has he done yet another about face.

Yes, he is fast becoming the John Farnham of the AFL.

He would be a rookie, so not eligible to play unless promoted. Develop him for two years at Casey. Jamar, Spencer and Jolly were all ruckman from our Rookie list.

Interesting that no former Demons are being given a shot elsewhere.

Sobering that. All the other clubs see many of our former players to be not good enough.

I guess it vindicates the FD decision to drop them... Sigh.

Why would anyone want them?

Thought GWS or GC might be interested in a mature body. Also heard rumours a while back about the Dogs possibly giving Bate a rookie spot.

Interesting that Jurrah isn't listed at PA as well. The reports at the moment say they are going a bit cold on him and he's let himself go a bit during his extended off-season.

Well, considering he said that he was unable to commit to Football right now that's hardly surprising. Very sad situation all round, but I'm not sure how I'll feel if he does join Port after what he said to us.

I think it will also subtly reinforce the do it my way or take the highway approach by Neeld. If you want to play AFL this is your shot. Give it your best because its unlikely you will get another.

It's actually good for our club that this is happening. Forget the Gen X "oh if I don't like this job I'll just get another". Those days are gone in the AFL.

There's an article in the Hun today saying he starts training with PA today for 2 weeks with a view to a spot on the rookie list

The big o will get rookied by tigers

Think it was the same article said Jurrah fronted looking like he hadn't trained since walking out of Melbourne in August

Call me selfish but I wouldn't be completely upset if he didn't make it at Port. If he is ever going to kick 5 and have MOTY it will be against us at the G. Also, whilst not knowing the details, still grumpy about him walking out on us with nary a thanks for the Clubs support or explanation as to why.

I think the 'why' is pretty obvious.....I don't think'Thank You' is part of their language......

Bate is training with the dogs (along with nick lower). doesn't surpirse me given the dogs were interested in bate last year.
