Not sure I would be house-hunting at Casey if I was on his coin but at least it isn’t far from training is there is room to fit him under the Casey Demons salary cap!

Berwick is a big step up from Blacktown ;)

    Big rumour around Carlton going after Josh Kelly.  

    If he’s willing to move and we don’t move heaven and earth and Hogan to try and get him, I would be gutted. 

    Why the [censored] does anyone want to go to Carlton?! Yuck!

    Lack of work ethic could be one reason.

    Re the Langdon brothers (aside from watching Tom's bloody good GF game I know bugger all about them). Not exactly Melbourne related but...

    Ed is contracted with Freo till end of '19 but is keen to move on.

    Tom has fielded inquiries from a number of Clubs but would be unlikely to go to Freo

    There is no surprise about Jesse wanting to go back to Perth but some surprise about going to Freo as 'no one wants to play under Lyon'

    Is that why after agreeing to take Mitch McGovern, they took Shiel to Noosa in a private jet. Now add Kelly to the mix.

    Obviously no salary cap for Carlton.

    Check your rumour source.

    Interesting my source tells me the opposite.

    Ed Langdon likes it in Perth and Tom would probably consider joining his brother at Freo.

    Your comment " aside from watching Tom's bloody good GF game I know bugger all about them" is probably very accurate.

    Fair enough, my info may well prove to be wrong but the person who told me is close enough to know. Do you know what the feeling is about Lyon?

    Don't know feeling on Lyon.

    Im no psychologist, but maybe jesse would thrive more under a grumpy dad figure that makes instructions simple, stubbornly rigid and authoritarian. Perhaps Goody is more of your younger big brother entrepreneurial leader with a more innovative and player-entrusting ethos that probably didnt resonate well enough for him or provide enough scaffolding to stay interstate after his unfortunate personal circumstances. i could be wrong though

    I get the feeling you could sign with Freo on the basis that if things don't improve next year you won't have to worry about playing under Lyon after that.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
