I'd beat Freo to the punch and convince Tanner to enter the nationl draft and take him at Pick 53.

He was pretty highly rated as a junior and was expected to go top 30, fell to pick 36. I reckon if we land Tanner Smith (anotehr player who can play either end and has a few years in the system) then our key positon stocks minus anotehr ruckman are well and truly cpmplete.

Time to pay Freo back for the Hannath scenario.

    complete if we also bring in McCartin as a KPF (assuming he turns out to be a good player and not another Luke Molan/Lucas Cook dud)

    My issue would be why are Freo demoting him?

    2 years in the system, had a debut, decent draft picks. Sounds to me like all the injuries have them worried. And if it's got them worried it should have us worried.

    Not sure about using a main list spot on him, but we could jump them with RD pick 2.

    Is there an etiquette involved in all this?

    Doubt there's any etiquette, we nabbed Riley in a similar situation.

    As a senior list player. I'm not sure that's the same as nabbing a guy from a rookie spot a club has lined up for him.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
