Yeah I remember the Hoges outburst. Definitely something to it all, think the truth is probably somewhere in the middle though, not sure Hoges is the most reputable source, especially on twitter.

I'm not sticking up for Morris, all I was saying is that he obviously has connections at MFC.

isn't the biggest knock on treloar his disposal? + im sick of us trying to sign players and repurpose them, particularly on the wing. if we want a wingman get phillips

It is, though Phillips is hardly the greatest kick either. Seems that over the last 5 years Phillips has a disposal efficiency of about 71.5% and Treloars is a tick over 68%, hardly polls apart. If we can land Treloar we should take it. Don't get me wrong, would be happy with Phillips, but would be happier with Treloar.

when u put it like that its hard to argue, but if the difference is that minor and we know phillips avg25 touches when he played a full year on the wing, i'd take him to save budget for clarry, trac, gawn, salo

Ethan? do you mean legendary news breaker @Ethan Tremblay

 

Hola. I’m hearing lots of whispers, will break some news soon. 

Edited by Ethan Tremblay

I really didnt want to offer him a fat three year contract, but I was salivating at the thought of a quick fix to our biggest hole for 2021.

I hope we have something else lined up for the wing. I dont want to see vandenBerg plugging that position again.

I'll be disappointed if he goes to the Cats.

 

Don't be disappointed, I won't be.

I think Brown is the big fish atm and if we get him we have done well.

Smith is a little aging fish and old fish can be very smelly and you don't want them hanging around smelling up the place for 3 years.

I think we can find younger better fish than Smith.

Only thing I like re: Smith is that we get him for free.  Yes, it's being mooted that we've offered him three years, but I think he would see out most of that contract and, outside a spot on the list, we haven't given up anything to get him.

And while I wouldn't say no to Phillips, and I'm lukewarm to Polec, we would need to get a trade done to get them (not to mention the expensive contract Polec is on) and I'm not sure we have the picks to do it.  

Having said that, we will get something for Preuss and if we can flick Tom McDonald then we might get something half decent for him as well, so that might help us land someone else if Smith goes Geelong.

Im callin it we will miss out on Smith but Brown still possible Or Vice versa probably the former if ya all can work that out!?

As I understand the way it has evolved, The MFC have been talking with Smith off and on for some time with a view to looking at getting him in the door at this time. Talking progressed to negotiations and an outline of a deal had generally been agreed. It is on the table but as the discussion progressed other opportunities in the market opened up as teams began to finish their seasons and player/club positions gained a bit more clarity. I do not think the MFC want to, at this stage add any sweetener to the pot for Smith.

the market has also changed for Smith with Geelong looking hard at framing a deal and Hawthorn also wanting to do the best to retain him. 

The market for both parties has evolved and it is not finished.

I did hear a couple of player names, Phillips being one, But I do not want to name them at the moment as the information was flimsy at best, and I have seen the beating the Doc is taking and, to be honest, I do not have the time or the inclination to defend myself every other post.

Sometimes things for free aren't worth the price.

I think I have morphed into a philosopher.

Great stuff mate. 

When I read this, I think of Adam Treloar, but could other name that hasn't been mentioned.

Cheers @CHF

Looking at that photo the first questions that came to mind were where is Barney’s elbow and at what point does his hand start/end

My sources are not prepared to disclose this information


Well that's slightly disappointing... but there are other fish for us to potentially catch in the AFL sea.

Plenty to still play out.

 

Great news Let him go to the Bellarine Old peoples home 

Lets chase a better value option in Phillips

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
