Lots of "no" there. Who should we be going after?

Going by Goat's attitude, he will want us to chase prime Wayne Carey and then blame the club when we can't do it.

If we are trying to create a sustainable culture then we shouldn't be going for any players that have a checked past & especially players that are over 28. Youth.....

Cut & dry for me.....not sure if that's right but we are not good enough to exercise the risk involved.....IMO

Risk? We'd be picking him up for next to nothing on a 1 yr contract - if he never plays a senior match, what exactly have we lost?

Some on here would say the "plot"

There's a bloke playing full forward for Geelong with a chequered past, over 28, who i think we would chase.........

Still didn't answer "who" specifically we should be going for.

You'll need to contact your hairdresser.

is brown still a go if we go after Jackson in the draft?

Yes. Preseason or rookie, I would think.

We cannot put all hopes in 18 yr olds, to perform from day 1.

Well clearly youth which would involve pick >100 in the ND 

Mitch Brown would be on base payment circa $180k for a depth type game player. But his 2019 again showed he can play and strongly contribute.  Bargain for money imo. 

Not against it good insurance and may actually be good alongside weid and tmac to take off pressure

Yeah decent back up pick up for free. Much better than Jenkins so I'm okay with it.

I wonder what the world record for picking up delisted free agents are in one year, benell, Murray and brown haha

I think we pulled out. No idea why or even exactly when, it was buried in a few other articles about a week ago.

GC need to keep looking at AFL and MFC websites 

Don't miss out on much also Demonlander  is good most of the time!!

Smart move to have him train on especially whilst Petty and Weideman aren't at full fitness and whilst the odds of Bennell are still heavily against Harley getting through preseason yet alone playing games.

I'd invite a bunch of players to train and see who demands a list spot.

Could be a bit like Cam Pedersen and also can go back in defence.

Handy depth who will give his all if we take him as a rookie.0

Listen to the SEN app GC. It’s great for info. 

I think this is very shrewd business by the MFC. Can't lose on this one.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
