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?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

    • NON-MFC: Round 08

      Round 08 of the 2025 AFL Season kicks off on Thursday with a must-win game for the Bombers to stay in touch with the top eight, while the struggling Roos seek a morale-boosting upset. Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.
