Current list of delistings and retirements above. So far only two who would potentially interest me, pending on how we go in the trade period.

Shaun McKernan as ruck insurance for a year if we trade out Preuss. Probably a bit early to only have Jackson & Bradtke as ruck depth should Gawn go down, so McKernan could be of some cheap value here.

Marley Williams as a small defender. With Jetta seemingly on his last legs and the jury still out on Lockhart and Chandler as small defenders, I'm hoping we can find someone in the trade period. We missed out on Saad, but maybe we can get Jordan Clark from Geelong or Lachie Ash from GWS in a Preuss trade? If not, then Marley Williams could be worth a look. Provides run and is a clean kick of the footy. Not sure how he measures on the no d-heads policy, but sometimes you just need to take the best available.

 

Would take either Marley Williams or Jasper Pittard on cheap contract as defensive depth.

Nah to both especially McKernan makes Oscar look like a star.

Not sure whether we will entertain a Delisted Free Agent pick. None so far really standout.  Brandon Matera? Mason Wood? Marley Williams? Hardly showed the intensity in their games to warrant another chance despite their talent. 

Dees might use 18,19,28 and 50 in the Draft and then add a further rookie pick 10.  (get list to 44).

Reckon if Andrew Phillips gets delisted we'll pick him up, but that could be about it.

Go to the draft with Picks 18, 19 and 28 and 1 live pick in the rookie draft. Though if we can package two of our first three National Picks together for a higher pick then we'll do that and take two rookies instead.

There have been suggestions that now we’re keeping Tom McDonald, we might not require an additional back up ruckman at the club.

Mahoney said this in an interview. 

 

cedric cox requested a trade to WA and received no interest, wouldnt mind him for a year or two off HB even if he still pursues a move west after that.

ronke is still OOC too at the swans and could be an alternative small forward option for 1 yr see what he's got

eggmolese-smith is also ooc still at richmond and has done some nice things off hb there but its a hard side to crack, i guess he'd have his eye on houlis spot from next yr on

Matthew Parker takes my interest the most out of those available at the moment.

Surely Mason Wood gets another go somewhere.

I think Lewis Jetta would be a good fit for us. 

Unless he sees his life in Melbourne after footy I wouldn't have Lewis Jetta for what is probably just 1 year.

Mason Wood might be the worst footballer in the AFL. If another club picks him up they should fold.

The MFC is not responsible for where Lewis Jetta sees his life after footy. He fits our needs and, if he were to join, we would pay him for his services.

So are you offering him a 2 year deal on good enough money to relocate his family?  Because I doubt he's coming for 1 year on minimum chips.

That would be in the negotiation. He is clearly on the edge at WCE, who are yet to offer a contract, and he would likely have to move to get a regular game of AFL.

My point is it is up to Jetta to consider if he wants to relocate, not the MFC. We need to look after ourselves. However, in saying that, we would be potentially attractive in that he would be a good fit for us and he has family playing at the club.

Billy Gowers would come close.

Wood has some talent. Can recall him kicking 4 goals against Sydney including the winning goal a couple of years back at the SCG, and he was too much for us to handle in a game against North in mid 2017 at the MCG (not the Hobart debacle that same year)

He may be the worst player in the league but he's not the least talented if that makes sense?

Would happily take Marley Williams or Pittard over a few on our list.

Really tough call but I'd probably just go Gowers over Wood because he has this local footy legend style about him I find endearing. Wood looks like he can run, jump, mark, kick and he showed a lot of promise up until Sydney offered him a big deal and from about that moment on he's lost the ability to do anything.

So would I but he sounds like he has off field issues (or at least he has in the past).

Very decent small defender.

Definitely would consider Pittard as a depth option. Really baffled he was among those let go.

Pittard is a bigger turnover merchant then Tmac, Tmac turns it over because he is trying  to do the impossible, pittard turns it over because he can't kick

He can move in with his cousin nev

Playing SFL is Marley.

People are muffed by the expectations of Petty for us (from many in D/L ) either in defence or attack saying pretty negative things about him!

But I am certainly extraordinarily and completely amazed by one or two D/L ers with a desire to recruit Marley Williams.

Not only dies that make it his third Club he butchers  the ball Even more than any one on our list but is rather error prone.

I would compare him even unfavourably with Josh Wagner!!!

Whats  SFL ??? anyway,

  • 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.
