This will be interesting as i know for a fact that the Dees were heavily interested in him in his draft year which was the Oliver Weideman draft.

Exactly the type of player that we are currently desperate for.

Hope that doesn't cloud their judgement then, we had big interest in Ben Kennedy, Balic and McKenna in their draft years as well and none of them did much as recycled players.

I agree that if he ever lives up to his potential then he'd be a very good pick up, but even when he hasn't been injured there hasn't been too much to get excited about. Take away that he was a first round pick and he'd be looking at a trade value of a 4th rounder at best.

Apparently wants out of Gold Coast after a wretched run of injuries since being drafted at pick 8. 

Quick with elite skills

Even when he’s played he hasn’t looked much chop imo. Definitely the traits we need, but I don’t think he is up to it.

I'm not convinced he's all that quick or skilled, and I think his best footy has actually come as a back pocket. He'd make a nice successor to Jetta but I don't think that role will be a huge priority. 

Reports said Brisbane were interested, I'd imagine he'd make a very hand small defender for them.

Your opinion on whether we'll put our hat in the ring again for his services mate?

Never got more than 22 touches in a game and not exactly sure where he fits into our lineup. Half back? Wing? Considering how high he went in the draft I doubt Gold Coast would give him up for less than pick 20ish + bit like KK comes with some injury concerns. If the price was right, sure I'd take a punt on him. However he shouldnt be our priority right now.

Did snag a 5 goal game though.

Not overly impressed with him. Delisted free agent at absolute best.

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.
