    No exposed form for this year and only NEAFL form before that but Wooler might be worth looking at as key forward depth if we need some. Good endurance runner and neat skills, maybe not the quickest or most explosive but could be useful across half forward.

    Mitch Hinge a good size left footed half back flanker who still doesn't have a deal for the Lions and obviously is stuck behind some good players in Brisbane's backline. Could be worth grabbing

    Skinner was apparently going to be a superstar when picked up #12 in draft. Very highly thought of.  2 knee reco's thereafter.  still hghly regarded at both ends of the ground.  Might be a reasonable SPP pick up for KK.

    Think you've got the wrong guy. He was pick #12 in the rookie draft when he was redrafted. He was a speculative tall when drafted at pick 47.

    We should definitely try to steal him from the WA clubs. What could possibly go wrong?

    Skinner didnt play well at all in his games this year and wooler couldn't crack a game this year when they had a revolving door of tall forwards so i think its checks all round.

    target witherden and let them keep minge even if birchall retires

    birchall has triggered his 2021 contract by dint of the amount of games he played in 2020 and intends to go on

    witherden is on serious coin for the next two years; not sure we could afford him given other targets (brown, i smith, phillips)

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • 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?
