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.

    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!!?

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
