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: Sydney

      A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

    • CASEY: Northern Bullants

      The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

    • GAMEDAY: Sydney

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?
