Fits the MFC mantra of hard at it (with questionable skills). 
Will it delay the progress of one of our youngsters? Probably, but it will show them what’s required to get to premiership levels. 
If dirt cheap why not.

    GWS sniffing at him for their rookie list, should be sounded out at least

    We should be sniffing too. We lost Tim Smith who if not always injured would be getting a semi-regular gig in the seniors and he hasn't been replaced by a big body.

    Can we please get another Townsend on the list.

    I remember the last one we had being a pretty decent player.

    He gave Nathan Jones a massive hit at the City End in 2018 for memory.

    If he can hurt the oppo, and kick goals...that is the minimum.  I think he is a tad slow, which unless players are extra special in other facets, we should stay away from.

    Is there anyone supporters don't want?

    At this rate we'll need to delist another 10 players to fit everyone in.

    You'd be all over him TGR being a Tigs man.

    SEN reporting GWS is likely to pick him up

    Didn't they have him before Tigers?

    Yea. the article was saying that he may go back to where he came (like the geelong ruckman who is back at the Suns).

    Rubbish footballer. Pass.

    Please don't give me the old he's played in a premiership though. Up there along with few other spuds like Mitch Morton, Mark Blake, Jon Simpkin, Steven Armstrong and many others.

    Stuart Anderson, who Freo recruited after the 96 Flag thinking he would bring some experience

    All he brought was a lack of work ethic and exposure to how limited his ability was when not surrounded by stars

    Not opposed to recruiting this guy. Will be decent depth as a role player up forward. Probably fight ANB for a spot. Looks like he might be off to giants and we haven’t been linked.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
