Ok, so getting back to footy... This is second hand info, passed onto me by someone who has spoken to family of players. Harmes has been chased by North this trade period. Roosy has been mak

For those interested I am hearing that we’d be very keen to have a chat to Adam treloar. If the pies are willing to pay a decent chunk of his salary we’d see him as a fit on the opposite wing to Langd

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?

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.

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

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

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.

you mean 'two years' til meth coke throw a small fortune at him to replace jjk ?

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..

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
