That was last year.  
Does the interest necessarily persist?

I don’t believe he was set on Carlton, he just wanted to get back and they were the ones who showed the most intent, although not enough intent obviously.

We should definitely be having a long hard look.

We have nothing to give to Sydney.

Don't be like that, dazzle.  Think positive.

Nibbler and a fourth rounder should be more than enough.

Ask Jack Martin.

Requested to be traded to Essendon one year, then Carltank the next.

now that raises an interesting query; what's he (Tom McD) worth?

like sideshow bob at north, he's an old fashioned key position player out of favour in an era geared towards mobility

In 2018 when he was pivotal in our success, he was more than an old fashioned KPP; mobility for size was a major asset.  Unfortunately, probably / possibly due to a foot injury, he has never nearly approached that mobility and his confidence has shattered with it.

2018 feels like a long long time ago

And a couple of hours later, "Must get Dan Butler".

 

He’s been incredible this year. He’s won them multiple games off his own boot.

    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

The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo.
