Please noooooooooooo.

If Daisy is worth 700k, Kieren Jack must be around 900k.

AD I think you are either over valuing Daisy or under valuing Jack.

On the Bulldogs and GWS front, I've heard straight swap of Patton for Pick 4.

It's just a rumour at this point from a mate ( not sure how reliable).

Can't give any results on the interviews but we spoke to Mitch Robinson last week and Shane savage this week. Both are unhappy at their current clubs and want to move. Personally I would be happy with them at the dees just as starters. Obviously not giving up too much but we have 2 second rounders (most likely) and a third. I'd like to get one for a fourth or swap of players.

Mitch, grunt once for "no" and twice for "yes".

Jed Lamb is still out of contract at the Swans and may be one of those sacrificed to make cap space for Franklin. Hopefully GWS commit to taking Mumford with PSD Pick 1 and we claim Lamb with Pick 2.

Turns 21 in October. 181cm. 84kg. Made his debut this year and played 12 games and kicked 9 goals. Pick 21 in the 2010 draft. Plays the high half forward role Sylvia is most suited to.

If Patton was up for grabs there'd be a stampede and Pick 4 would not get it done. What would the Pies give up for Patton for instance?

Sacrificial Lamb?

I think Mitch Robinson could be a good fit for us. He's very tough, but the thing I like most about him is he's a very tall midfielder. All our guys are short, stocky types. The inclusion of Robinson would give us a little more diversity.

Mate I had laugh to myself when I read what Carlton is offering Daisy. I know it's all speculative but makes one shake the head.

Tom Rockliff spotted in Melbourne today.

XXX's fingers!

lets hope the blues have spent the bulk of they're salary cap. and others aren't on the chase.

are we going to get anyone?

the footy journo (one of the unremarkable interchangable types who pop up on SEN - Update: Julian De Stoop) on SEN after 7 with BP said there is speculation Dayne Beams is unsettled at Collingwood. Conceivable given his fellow brat packers in Thomas and Shaw are being marched out the door in the name of cultural change.

Worth noting that Anna Krien's book Night Games does not exactly paint Beams in a positive light as a man or a friend.

He'd certainly lower the group IQ.

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
