    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 :)

    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..

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
