Why is James Magner on the rookie list?

Absolute friggin joke.

How in the hell does Rodan get a game over Magner. Seriously WTF is going on with this place??

rodan has the leg speed required to be helpful on the offensive and defensive spread which is where we have been really lacking of late.

he can also play as a crumbing forward which means his rotations are beneficial and will probably be involved in a swap with sylvia and tapscott to chop them out and spread the load.

but at the end of the day, a premiership player with over 150 games experience, that is why he was brought to the team, and with both captains being out that is why he is playing ahead of magner

also rodan is not a certain starter yet

    Any news of a rookie upgrade, Magner or Couch to add some muscle? As Neeld mentioned before the game we "were outmuscled" by GCS for goodness sakes at least one of these 2 will close that off.

    For the love of GOD, please upgrade Magner. He will NOT be our savior. Upgrading him will inject something into the virtually non existent midfield. He will give 100% along with ripping the ball out of the pack. And if Magner being slow is his only negative, well he is already up on a majority of the 22 to date.

    However, if he were to be upgraded, please play him when he has been playing in the VFL, no more negative roles.

    Should never be placed back on it - stupidest decision by the football department of 2013

    By christ have we missed a fearless hard-bodied inside mid. We actually had a serviceable midfield yesterday with Jones's and Magner doing the grunt work with Davey feeding off it

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
