Get Tom lynch!!!

This guy should be spoken of when talking the next big forwards coming through the ranks but he never gets a mention as it's all about the big 3 at the giants

Not quite right, he does get a mention and I can't see him being let go.

Would love to get Lynch, but I think another couple of high quality mids like Dom Tyson would be the priority ATM.

2010 National Draft

Pick 11 - Gold Coast - Tom Lynch

Pick 12 - Melbourne - Lucas Cook

Watching that draft I was getting my hopes up as the top 10 selections were revealed that Lynch would fall to us at Pick 12.

Missed him by that much... Can't see Lynch leaving GC.

Me too.

I've always been convinced that Barry Prendergast hitched his star to selecting either Prestia or Lynch, and had no viable back-up plan if both were gone.

Anyone else would've been better than bloody Lucas Cook, mismanaged as he was...

Following on from Roosy's comments about getting a couple more quality midfielders. I was thinking that Zaharakis could be a good target. Anyone know his contract status. His good is brilliant and might be keen to get out of Essendon with the ASADA stuff sure to hit home at some stage.

Just signed a new deal. He bleeds red and black. No way he would leave.

I would put Ben Kennedy on the shortlist. Was compared to Boomer as a junior and has a tough midfield to crack into at the Pies.

i like spangher but i don't think he would offer us much, we need a younger prospect I think.

Craig bird of the swans is out of contract at the end of the year, wants to stay at the swans but the salary cap squeeze makes things difficult for them, i wonder if a second round pick might lure him down?

any others out of contract, the more we can pump them up with offers, some will fall through.

yep, but we need players who are ready to hit the MCG running, that is for trades I mean... our draftees can take longer, for sure, in fact better that they do.

Just signed a new deal. He bleeds red and black. No way he would leave.

If Essendon doesn't exist next year.

He and Goddard will be up for grabs.

The Mess that those cheats have brought upon players, the club, supporters and the other clubs, deserve a huge suspension of 5 years. All non drug takers then go to other clubs.

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but whats the difference between being out of contract and being either a restricted and unrestricted free agent? I understand the difference between the two free agent types but aren't all out of contract players classified as either one of these free agents?

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
