I’m gonna add that the handbrake told me that’s what she heard so it is second hand news. 

The latest from the west Aus rag.

A lot of 'leaning towards' and 'it is believed' and 'apparently' and 'nothing confirmed but' in that.

Sounds like a bit of a press beat-up to me. Making something up to fill in the time.

Just checked Eagles forum and they heard the same report on ch7 that he is staying.

Kelly wont go to North even for silly money.

 

Posters on here talk about Josh Kelly as though if North don’t get him he’s as good as coming to Melbourne. In reality we’d just be one of about ten suitors throwing cash at him. It’s a long shot.

North offer (being the largest financially amongst other clubs) would have been used to drum up a better offer at his preferred club being west coast. Doubt he was ever leaving. Manager declaring it s between north and west coast was purely strategic in my view. Can polec pull out still?

If Gaff is staying how do they get Tim Kelly or fit him into their cap.  Could Dockers  make a play for him? How would that affect other deals? Might make letting Neale go easier? Interesting 10 days ahead.

It does set up a fascinating 10 days Red. Rosich declared Freo have their sights on 4 or 5 trade targets and haven’t given up on convincing Tim Kelly his future playing days could be at Cockburn.

Whoever was the bright spark at Nth that decided that it would be a good idea to be so public and vocal about the their big recruiting over the last two seasons needs to be fired or reassigned to the Carlton FC social media management.

He seems to have a sensitivity about him 

 

It's how I always fondly remember him...

Yeah, nice post. Perhaps unfortunately, I don’t see the world in black and white.

But I understand that many in Kansas do.

To assess Gaff’s entire character and personality on that one incident, is the very reason we no longer endorse public lynching as a society, even though many rednecks would love to have it back.

It seems that Andrew Brayshaw has forgiven him - good on you for continuing to hold the grudge though.

Sensitivity when thinking of Andrew Gaff is not my first thought, sorry...

Grudge...get your hand off if it old chap it was you that highlighted that quality. 

I'm not the one who smacked Brayshaw. What does much of the footy world think when uttering that blokes name ? I wonder.

If you don't like a post lampooned.. think it through.

Play on...

Nick Bowen reporting on Twitter Gaff is in the process of telling the appropriate people he's staying. 

Story up soon on AFL.COM.AU

That will throw the cat among the pigeons.

The Tim Kelly deal for one.

I'm pleased to hear it.  As much as I would have loved him to be playing for the Demons, I am happy that loyalty isn't dead.

I don’t think North are that far off. Well coached, played well with a poor list..

Hard to turn down all of that cash... But I hope he is happy with never being a premiership player. 

I wouldn't care 1 iota.The money on offer would make me happy enough to never even win a single game again in my lifetime.Thing is these days it really is just a job & that many playets couldnt care if they win or lose.Just think we go to work for 100k a year & do you really care if your company wins awards etc?

    Had to shoulder more responsibility as the club’s injury concerns deepened but needs to step up more as he closes in on 100 games. Date of Birth: 31 May 2000 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 95 Goals MFC 2024: 6 Career Total: 34 Games CDFC: 1 Goals CDFL: 0

    2024 Player Reviews: #35 Harry Petty

    Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0

    Originally an NBL basketballer with the Brisbane Bullets, he moved across town in 2019 to the AFL Lions where he played 19 games before crossing to Melbourne where he was expected to fill a role as a back up ruckman/key forward. Unfortunately, didn’t quite get there although he did finish equal sixth in Casey’s best and fairest award. Date of Birth: 23 February 1999 Height: 198cm Games CDFC: 14 Goals CDFL: 13

    Sadly, had to wrap up a great career in midstream on the back of multiple concussions which culminated in the Maynard hit in the 2023 Qualifying Final. His loss to the club was inestimable over and above his on field talent given his character and leadership qualities, all of which have been sorely missed.

    The son of former Demon Brownlow Medalist Shane, Taj added a further 16 games to his overall tally of games but a number were as substitute. He is slowly fitting into the team structure but without doing anything spectacular and needs to take further steps forward in 2025 for his career to progress.

    The clever small was unable to cement a place in the Melbourne midfield and spent most of his time this year with the Casey Demons where he finished equal fourth in its best & fairest.

    Bowey’s season was curtailed early when he sustained a shoulder injury that required surgery in the opening game against Sydney. As a consequence, he was never able to perform consistently or at anywhere near his previous levels.  Date of Birth: 12 September 2002 Height: 175cm Games MFC 2024: 14 Career Total: 61 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total: 6

    SLIP SLIDING AWAY by Meggs

    It was a sweaty, slippery night at Cazalys Stadium, a tough slog with low scoring and missed opportunities.  The Hokball Hawks hung on to win by a goal and sit second on the ladder, relegating the disappointed Demons to, almost certainly, finals spectators.   We had to win this match. When news broke of late withdrawals of talisman Kate Hore and key back Gaby Colvin, expectations plummeted, and Demon fans despaired.  The bad news was the signature song of 2024, a season that’s
