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!!?

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
