Ah yes another tall defender, wonder who he'd replace in the squad or if they'd persist with Tomlinson down back.

    He'd be a significant upgrade on OMac (I'm not a hater either), and allow May and Lever to do what they do best. At only 26, those 3 would form the best tall defensive unit in the league, plus we'd have Rivers, Salem and Hibberd for run/use and Lockhart and maybe Jetta as smalls. I don't think it's our most pressing need (speed and forward connection) but wouldn't say no as we don't have to give up any assets for him.

    Agreed not most pressing - Upgrade fine provided the salary doesn't go overboard. 

    OMac and Smith, imagine one if not both may not be there next year - so there'd be a spot - Unless they throw Tmac back there again.

    Seems we've put Tomlinson on relatively good coin and the best games he's played have been in the backline.

    Not sure this should be our priority unless our next key forward is going to be Steven May. Another wing who can use the ball please!

    Straight swap for Tomlinson?

    But in all seriousness, what does that mean for Tomlinson? He's not a winger, I think the clubs aware of that, too.

    Kyle Hartigan a UFA from Adelaide. 28yo and not in teams future. Works well with Lever as 2nd & 3rd talls. Free, cheap and we can focus our cap space and trades on more important needs. Put Tomlinson back on wing, he can work on his kicking over summer.

    Now let's get another outside mid, kpf and small forward.

    Hartigan is one of the worst backmen I've ever seen

    Corr is the calibre of player you would be happy to get as a delisted free agent for a couple of years, but no way you would consider on a long term, big dollar contract.

    Corr’s a dud. Pass

    He's no superstar, but is more than handy. Just doesn't get a great run with injury. He'd be a great second key back and would allow May and Lever to do what they do best all the time, but I wouldn't pay a huge amount for him. I'm sure North will open the check book, but as a freebie and if he wanted a fair contract I'd happily take him.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • 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.
