Interesting that he has been out of contract for so long. Always assumed that Don's would sign him on (and I still think they will). Has struggled for parts of this year and famously struggles to score if the dons aren't playing well on the day..  but still would offer some pace/spark that we need up forward.

    In a high contested team that thrives on forward half pressure, he would be a great fit. Adds pace and can kick straight ?

    Hold the phone: a small forward that goes missing when the rest of his team does? wow!

    Would think it's a contract issue (money level and perhaps term)...

    Surprised that he hasn't had the pre-signing form improvement that so many MFC players experience.

    may as well give the Bombers a little salary cap problem by making an offer. Garlett's money is there to be used.

    So how do you rate Hunt or not 'small' enough?

    Or you just prefer a bit of negativity

    Did i set your "disrespect alarm" off again Saty?

    He is no more a "Small" than CP5. In fact he is taller.

    Surely you must have known that.

    Or do you just like a argument?

    P.S. Dont bother, we already know the answer.

    Saty. I admire your red and blue blood through-and-through attitude, but a guy is allowed to express an opinion without it being construed as a knock (“negativity”) on every player on our list, surely.

    Dons would surely get his signature before end of season, their supporters would riot.

    But if not, would absolutely go for him without hesitation! Inside 50 pressure and goals, absolute gold for our needs.

    Facts M8. 

    Look at em.

    They're good for ya. 

    We're the least effective forward-line in the AFL. 

    No amount of training you attend will change that.

    Would take him gladly if he was open to leaving. He’s the type of pacey small forward we need and a big upgrade on the likes of Spargo, Nibbler, Hanna etc

    you're right but it would be fun making an open play for him and seeing the bomber fans sweat.

    As I mentioned before at the very least it would play a little havoc with their salary cap.

    You’re right Saty. After Anthony McDonald-Tipungwuti’s performance today I’d rather Hunt.

    Cherry picking individual games isn't a sound method for managing a team list. But I guess you knew that.

    I’ve seen him play like this more than once. I believe he tore us a new one when we played them. In fact he’s done it to us numerous times. Today’s just another example of the quality player he is.

    Same Height as Petracca at 186cm. I’d hardly call him a ‘small’ forward. He doesn’t play as one either.

    Yep. Different player type than Hunt. Better player than Hunt.

    Who would you rather Spargo, or Tippa?? Other than Jeffy who I still rate, he is an upgrade on any thing similar. And No... Hunt aint really a Forward !!

    Go Get please!!?

    • 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.
