Great news. You would think that Adelaide would like to have a dabble at both Sparrow and Petty in the next few years, so keeping them under contract is important.

    Good signing, he’s one of our most promising youngsters. Sparrow has a lot of potential to be a good midfielder and can also hit the scoreboard or play forward flank if needed. Adelaide are keen on luring him back to SA, so this is a good signing to keep the group stable. Now just need Dogga to extend and our best youngsters are all locked away!

    Very happy with Tom signing on - has plenty to offer 

    Was surprised however his set shot for goal last night as it was such a stinker - had penciled it in as a goal such is the confidence I have in his kicking :)

    Very happy with this news.  Spaz is a good player, with a ton of upside imo.

    The only player in the club that can stop Trac (at training) according to Steven May last night. 

    Great signing.

    Saw a comment from his Mum when drafted. What are some of his attributes, Mum said Loyalty. He's a 200 gamer

    The one thing that could stop Melbourne is our lack of attacking midfield depth. I don't even want to say it, but if Trac or Oliver go down (or have a down game), we need someone to be able to pick up where they left off and be damaging offensively. Sparrow has all the tools.

    Great signing.

    Ability under pressure for someone so young is amazing.

    The long goal in the GF with 4 Dogs running at him.

    The long kick to Brown following ANB's kick inot space, summing up what Brwon was calling for then doing it.

    Match winning actions (some of the many by the team)

    Bowey's the same, just has different coloured hair and plays in defence.

    Huge fan of Sparrow, and great to see him re-signing. If he can get more development time in the midfield, he could be anything. Strength, confidence, booming kick.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
