    Fair enough. I'm not having a dig when I ask, just curious if its a rumour, or a rumour of a rumour, or a rumour³?

    Seems logical, I'd believe that 100%

    It's a rumour. nothing connected to any form of inside knowledge or anything, i've just heard it from 3 different people now who all generally know a bit about what's happening, so thought it was worth sharing :)

    Exactly what a rumour thread is for!

    Clearly they don't rate Tom Mac.

    They are looking for a key forward and this one is a youngster, while they could have had an experienced one

    right away.

    Seriously 'Red', why would they?

    It's pretty obvious our FD doesn't rate him any longer either.

    If I was them I would be going for the kid in this case.

    Good kids who play KPF are worth their weight.

    If I was North, there’d be no way I trade that pick to the Scum. Get McDonald for themselves and have him partner Larkey for the next decade.

    I wish we could resolve our Wing situation...and perhaps soon.

    Once upon a time, I did see a rumour...

    You’d hope they think this way, they are not exactly flushed with KPF talent

    I meant they could have had both. One to develop and one ready to go now with experience.

    Could be funny if Tom gets his best form back.

    I would be great if he did...would make a lot of us including me look stupid but I wouldn't mind.

    Actually, if he loses more weight as he is doing and gets his foot right, there is no reason he can’t play decent footy.

    Actually, if that happens then I think it says more about the coaching than it does about TMac

    The Sounding Board today Hutchy and Barrett seemed confident Collingwood made their salary dump because they have Petracca "on the hook" for next year's free agency period.

    And by on the hook they mean they reckon Collingwood would be interested in arguably the best player in the AFL as would every other team.

    I am confident that Melbourne have Petracca on the hook and by on the hook I mean he will sign a multi-year deal with the Dees prior to the free agency period.

    Doesn't surprise me. Petracca has the Jeremy Howe about him..

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
