Upgrade on Baker and ANB. Would offer a point of difference to our one paced midfield. Langdon on one wing and Narkle on the other. Tomlinson permanent defender. Yes from me

    Worth a go but Brian Taylor has put me off with his “sparkle Narkle” crap everytime time he’s near the ball.

    I'd take a look at him, although his injury history doesn't do much for me.  If we delisted someone like Bedford, then I'd be happy to nab him for a late pick to fill that spot.  If it works out then great but, if not, we haven't lost too much.

    I doubt a farnarkling player would be good at AFL.

    I can't understand the rules of farnarkling, but then again, recently I have found the umpires and AFL don't seem to understand the rules of AFL either.

    I don’t think he would look at the Dees. Why would he??? He’s from WA so immediately he’d be looking at Eagles or Freo.  

    The article stated that, if he looked to move on, it is at a Melbourne based club:

    Narkle, 22, is out of contract and understood to be open to a move if it eventuates, preferably to a Melbourne-based club.

    You seem to rely on puns a bit, Kent.

    Thanks WB. I’d be highly surprised if he ended up at the Dees. Might be on the Bombers radar. They seem to be into anyone looking likely of a move. Except Daniher of course.

    Narkle is nit looking for a team necessarily in the Top 5 premiership window as he is still starting his career.

    I can't stand the "Why would he pick Melb (Us)" disdain as if the Club  has Covid virus in the forward line and Ebola  virus down back.

    As pointed out he would look for a Melb based Club and the deal is the most important thing plus the opportunity foryoung players. He can see what Langdon has done !

    This  continual putting down if our Club is not only tiresome but depressing and is generally a rash generalisation without thought or facts.

    Narkle is  just the sort of youngster who has pace and flair to suit our outside running needs for 2021 and beyond.

    660 posts and you’re a troll already. I don’t put down the club. I don’t think Narkle would choose us.  It’s my opinion. Get on board with the spirit of the forum which allows supporters to express opinions without this type of irrational response to one opinion.  GAL.

    Sorry Smithy but your complete ruling out of the possibility without reason or knowledge or fact blandly dismissing any hope for consideration or the fact that that Club May wish to recruit him shows no thought whatsoever.

    Indeed your first remark about you thinking he would be Wanting to be going back to WA Was a wild stab And  as ambit as nearly all WA fans think every Player that heads east wants to return as soon as their 2 year recruit contract finishes.

    Getting  with the spirit in this post is not in my opinion what D/L is about in  fact it is as you say a diversity opportunity and as such I have Expressed my opinion fairly and reasonably and positively putting fat more accuracy in this topic than your rash predictionwhich is incorrect in the first place and a wild guess in the second.

    Yes you can state your opinion but if wrong and really Doesn't  she'd anY accuracy on the subject it Behoves me to point out the true facts and also place a more positive spin on our aClub in the process.

    Thxnk you for deciphering me as a troll they 600 odd posts is about 100 a year ie 2 a week really hardly trolling figures of any note.!!!

    Troll is to denegrate others for an opinion. That was your style. It had nothing to do with any facts and you had no facts. I’m stating imo I think other Melbourne clubs might be his intention or even still going home as happens each year every year. GAL

    Absolutely worth the look. Low risk. 

    The Cat's cut him pretty quickly.  I would be worried as to why.  They don't suffer fools gladly down there.  Would need to do some serious homework / background checks first imv.

    Think I might have mixed him up with Parfitt for some reason. Narkle does seem to break down a bit so would need to do the checks, does have some good toe though.

    i don't see why he wouldn't pick us

    he's an outside player looking for a new team; we're crying out for his type, and he would get plenty of opportunities with us

    i can't actually seeing him being worth much - he seems to be constantly breaking down and when fit is unable to force his way into geelong's 22

    third / fourth rounder? geelong hardly need the picks tho

    narkle and one of their first round picks for viney, when we match whatever they're offering him and 'force' the trade?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 05

      Gather Round is here, kicking off with a Thursday night blockbuster as Adelaide faces Geelong. The Crows will be out for redemption after a controversial loss last week. Saturday starts with the Magpies taking on the Swans. Collingwood will be eager to cement their spot in the top eight, while Sydney is hot on their heels. In the Barossa Valley, two rising sides go head-to-head in a fascinating battle to prove they're the real deal. Later, Carlton and West Coast face off at Adelaide Oval, both desperate to notch their first win of the season. The action then shifts to Norwood, where the undefeated Lions will aim to keep their streak alive against the Bulldogs. Sunday’s games begin in the Barossa with Richmond up against Fremantle. In Norwood, the Saints will be looking to take a scalp when they come up against the Giants. The round concludes with a fiery rematch of last year's semi-final, as the Hawks seek revenge for their narrow loss to Port Adelaide. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Geelong

      There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
