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

I am wondering why a talent like Jonathan O'Rourke can go from a possible 200 game player to a has been?

Lack of work ethic could be one reason.

Would have fared much better at a strong club like Melbourne.

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?

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.
