Forget Martin, get in Conca's ear.

Still unsigned, Tiges will have little in their kitty after Martin, would be happy if we made Reece an offer that would lure him from Punt rd

Good player Conca but I think the hold up is about him wanting to go home. Maybe we would be a chance if we relocate to WA.

Am very confident he would sign, but Richmond are offering him a pittance compared to what he would be worth on the open market.

Money is the issue here, not home, and he isn't being greedy!

If that's the case then he is worth a crack. I rate Conca, hard at it and good basic skills with a lot of upside.

Hard to believe the Tiges would let him go.

Anyone out of contract is fair game, he is quality so offer him what he is worth, not sure what that would be exactly and see what he has to say, if he says no we're in the same position as we are now.

Tigers would hate to see him leave, but if they sign Martin, would only be able to afford to offer Conca half of what he is worth if my understanding of situation is right

Surprised it took this long for Conca's name to be floated. Hard at it. Reasonable skill level and would be a perfect fit for our midfield as he is 185cm tall and can take a good overhead mark. The only hesitance would be that he is susceptible to foot injuries..... 2012 broken toe, 2013 stress point (hot spot) of the foot.

I rate him, just another good solid player.

Why not just go for everybody!

High draft pick which matters little now.

But averaged just less than 20 touches over the last two seasons.

In the right age bracket.

Will continue improving and may get the chance to flourish in our midfield with more opportunities in comparison to the tiges.

And lets face it, we have to pay someone so it's a good chance to get him across

As I have said elsewhere we are into him! Offering I believe 1.8m for 4 years

Gee I'd love him on our list but that definitely seems too much. 450k a year is huge. We still need to have enough cap to target players such as Adams, Selwood and Swallow.

Would be only just over what his current market rate would be IMO. Over a 4 year contract, if he keeps steadily improving, reckon in two years we would be paying less than his market rate with that offer

Would love this kid

Just turned 21, and if you take out the elimination final where he got 0 touches as he was injured early , he averaged around 20 disposals per game and kicked 12 goals in 16 games

Really hope we can land him

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    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
