I'd be interested, very interested. I still think he has a very good upside but looks like there will be some sliders in this draft. 

Also JKH is playing well just making some little mistakes. 

I'm  a big JKH fan, but think he might be behind a few players of a similar skill set.

Think it best for all to explore options.

Still, if we're to part with him having developed him for a couple of years to being an AFL grade player, I'd want a 2nd rounder for him, minimum.

Not to say I overrate him, but I'd happily keep him and they'll have to pay to take him off our hands... assuming we don't have designs on what we expect to receive for him. Maybe we've floated the idea to his management that there will be greater opportunities elsewhere. We do have little currency for trade in terms of picks.

Spencer having a big impact in the ruck.

He could be an All Victorian this year if they have one.?

Casey lead 53 - 27.

Has been super solid at this level

Could be in the sights of a few AFL clubs. Handy back up for Big M though.

The lead is now 39 points and Casey seem to have broken the back of the Tigers' resistance.

KC Grimes has had a huge year at VFL level and his first up game with us was off the charts stat wise. Is he an "IN" option for Harmes this week maybe??

Would we accept Hibberd for JKH?

Doubt it. The club has embarked on a youth policy and have been fairly consistent on this throughout the year. I can see ANB or Salem as the next cabs off the rank but after yesterday, I think it might be no change for next Sunday.

Half time. I reckon the better senior listed players for Casey have been Spencer, Trenners, White, M Jones, Garland, Nibbler. Not based just on no. of possessions but more what they have done with them.

Grimes has seen plenty and done ok. JKH got a bit more into the action later in that qtr. Salem likewise.

Joel Smith came off limping (knee?) after a rather funny unco leap and attempt to spoil and had some run through tests at half time.

If we want Hibberd that badly... Probably.

I'd be inclined to move our 2nd rounder early for Hibberd, then do a deal for JKH for Carlton's 2nd rounder, which will be earlier in the draft. Chuck in our 3rd rounder if we really have to.

Seems that we're committed to bring Hibberd in, and if we have Carlton's pick, the bombers would hold out for that. Carlton may bailout at such a suggestion of their 2nd rounder, but I do think JKH is worth that much.

JKH and our 3rd for there 2nd is a mere 10 or so pick upgrade. I would offer JKH and our 4th and 3rd for there 2nd and 3rd.

    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

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.
