23 year old victorian kid taken at pick 20 in the 2015 draft, plays predominantly as an outside midfielder at the Suns with good disposal by foot. Has played 52 games and had a breakout year where he played 21 games and averaged 25 touches a game and came 5th in the Suns bnf (not saying much I know). Is now out of contract and seemingly out of favour this year. Could be potential red flags there but worth the thought I reckon. Could come cheap in terms of trade price and may compliment Langdon on the other wing as an outside accumulator, also a lefty.

    He signed with the Suns through to the end of 2023.  Had an excellent 2019.  I’m not sure why he would be out of the Suns line up. I think Anderson may have taken his wing role. When I’ve seen him play, he has had good run and skills and good composure.  I’d be willing to talk if the Suns were putting him up.

    Ah ok, seems footywire's contract status cannot be trusted then.

    Seemingly had a great 2019, so what's gone wrong this year?  Too soft?  Not defensive enough?  Doesn't work hard enough?  Something has gone awry for him this season and I'd love to know what it is.

    Suns weren't anywhere near as good last year as this year,  they've added Greenwood, Anderson, Rowell and Ainsworth has stepped up in a massive way.  Fiorini has moved down the pecking order.

    He was great in 2019, probably the Suns most consistent midfielder. Would gladly take him and add him to our midfield rotation. He’s a different type of player to the one paced inside brigade we have. He’s not pure outside, wins his own ball and used it well be foot.

    What would he cost us in a trade?

    If hes not getting a game for a bottom 4 side he couldn't cost mote than a 3rd rounder you'd think. Never seem him play though.

    Good from afar but a far from good.

    Accumulates but lacks damage. Doesn't love the contest. Doesn't love defensive running. Isn't quick enough to break lines. Is a good kick but not a great kick who opens up play and creates goals.

    The suns probably paid him plenty to sign on for 4 years as well given they couldn't keep losing players. We'd probably have to get a decent chunk of his cash paid to make a deal work.

    Had offseason groin surgery so he's a better player than he showed this year but whether he's good enough to go and chase I'm  not sure.

    Could play on a wing! He carried the Suns midfield workload when most were injured a year or two ago. I see him as a similar player to Higgins (Nth). In saying that, I think he will end up at North!

    Needs a refresh and would definitely ask the question if the ‘Price is Right’!

    That video really sold me....on how good Alex Sexton is.

    Does he have skills by hand and foot plus a turn of speed over twenty metres?

    Nothing on the highlight reel that thrilled me. I suspect Hannan would have a better reel.

    • 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.

    • 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 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?
