    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..

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.

    • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

      What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.
