Some reports that Zac Fisher was being chased heavily by the Dogs, with Carlton quickly turning them down. Could have been a hail Mary, but could also mean there's some kind of chance he's gettable. IMO would be perfect for us. Is it worth us having a big crack at him? He's contracted for another 2 seasons so would have to be enticed.

Why is he perfect for us 'Nev'?

He's not a small forward but an undersized mid from what I see...has some skill, nice player but hardly perfect.

Could play as an outisde mid for us, you agree we need outside mids yeah? Quick, good decision maker, left footer, runs all day, tackles and suits us at 21 years old.

I agree we really need small forwards, but it's not the only thing we need IMO.

So there's some kind of chance he's gettable because another team inquired about him and Carlton shut it down?
 

I keep opening threads thinking we've actually been linked to a player but its all just hypothetical, none of which have come to fruition. It's bumming me out!

If it's Melbourne keeping tight lips on who they're interested in that's good I guess but its driving the demonland faithful a bit mad.

Yep, no talk we're linked to him or he's looking to leave, just putting the idea out there, tried to make that clear in the OP, but maybe not enough for the rabid, cranky Demonland faithful who are starting to turn on each other at a rapid rate.

Totally agree - it's literally doing my head in.

For the first time in years, I wish the club was far less professional and leaked absolutely everything.

I need to know what's going on!

Maybe a little on the small side but I get your thinking...haven't seen enough of him to know whether his foot skills are good.

Fair enough, and I might be influenced by a Dees supporting mate who played with him and keeps bringing him up.

Yeah you probably didn't make it clear enough but thats cool. Was just pointing out that its frustrating how little we've been linked to players when there's clearly positions we need to fill. Talking about players that are contracted for 2 more years at their club with no word that neither player nor club have shown any interested in parting ways just seems a bit of a reach. 

But maybe your dees supporting mate who played with him has inside info?

Yep, fair mate. I can only hope he does, but wouldn't count on it, think he just wants his old mate at the Dees!

Interesting name to bring up, I'm genuinely 50/50 on him. I honestly don't think he would be in our best side with everyone fit right now. How much can he improve in the future? However, I don't think he's gettable at all anyways. Blues need to keep their mids. Nice idea though.

He's a bit like Sam Frost, people see some amazing things he does and don't focus as much on what he can't do. he has some assets as a player that would appeal, but i'm not sure the overall package does, especially based on what it'd take to get him.

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
