IF he's coming then its time he came out and said so. Otherwise we're start to look like second choice depending on how other things go. Time to pull the frikn trigger already. 

Could not agree more. Need to know now so we can get a trade sorted and cash ready. I personally think it will be a good combo- Weeds and Brown, Jackson and Gawn floating in forward line. Get Milkshake, Petracca and Pickett roaming around and the forward line starts to look right and the ruck has s new complexity!

Red, Blue and Brown!

HUGE get. I don’t think some on here quite realise how important this is.

For years we’ve had no issues getting it into our forward 50 but conversion has been the issue. This guy is the answer to this massive problem we’ve had.

The only query was whether he was okay injury wise but our medical team has given him the tick of approval so it’s full steam ahead.

What a signing he will be, great stuff Dees!

Great news. Now lets get the trade done for pick 23 and move on quickly.

This is a huge get for the club. He's the most productive tall forward we've had since Neitz. Even if he doesn't hit 60 goals a season again, he takes pressure off other so Weid is no longer double teamed and creates crumbing opportunities for Kozzy. Helps our forward line in many ways. Welcome Ben!

No this indeed a huge get.

Great win for us. This takes enormous pressure off Weid and Jackson.

He's out of contract so we have the power here. Pick 23 should get it done quickly.

No bending over like we did in 2017 when Lever was out of contract and we still ponied up two first rounders!

I’m delighted. If we do land that elusive flag we will look back on this moment as pivotal.

It sounds like Burgess was key to the deal so I would love to get confirmation that he is staying.

Next on my wish list - Tom Phillips

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full
