    But this other player that is leaving is giving you genuine distress.

    This player you can’t remember.

    No matter what happens with Dogga, I’d still be keen to ask the Swans about the availability of Haydn McLean.  Big bodied 197cm Forward/2nd Ruck. Good goalkicker, good mark.  Behind Franklin, McDonald and Reid as a forward. Behind Hickey and Ladhams as a ruck. Would appeal to us and brings physical presence.  

    i really like this, could be a very T-Mac style player, not flashy and plays within his limits and provides a good option.

    Haven't seen a whole lot of him but I do vaguely remember him at Sandy Dragons and he could really clunk a mark!

    before Logan Mcdonald and Amarti, i remember him being a very serviceable player.  if we can get him for bugger all and not pay a lot he would be a great get, and if a young kid passes him well that's what we want too

    What about a nibble at Paddy Dow from Carlton to fatten our midfield depth chart?

    The HUN reporting that Carlton are looking at off loading a former high draft pick for salary space so I can only assume it's him.

    Last year he almost got there as a realised talent but for whatever reason can't get a game this year (that reason being that he's probably not good enough in Voss's eye)

    Finn Callaghan would be a nice addition, has a booming kick. What's his contested marking like? At 192cm he could provide a nice marking option down the wing to help out Max.

    Haven’t really seen him in pack marking situations, but has good hands overhead does pretty well in one v one marking contests. Can play a role forward.

    Bedford I assume. 

    Not a Premiership player, as was quoted in the post.

  • Quote

    I hope we look to top up our list with some veterans who are flag chasing like Goldstein, Cunnington, Boak, Robbie Gray, Breust and/or Gunston. They aren't key forwards but they could be the difference in 2023.

    As much as we need a key forward to replace Ben Brown, he has two more years on his contract and the top key forwards will cost an enormous amount in salary cap space and picks. I think we should be looking at getting another gun small forward either in the draft or trade.

    I would rather Brodie Kemp.

    And he also stated that it was three "good" players. No offence to Bedford, but I hardly think that anyone would classify him as good.

    we want picks.. minimum 2 first rounders. Of course we want a Tall forward, but ideally from Freo we want minimum 2 first round picks this year.

    will we?

    i would've thought we'd want to replace a best 22 player with another or more - dunno if (likely) late first round picks will get the job done

    that said, i could see us getting three first round picks if footscray give up their 2021 first rounder for lobb and flagmantle paying a huge chunk of his 2023 salary

    GIVE: jackson + 2022 second round pick
    GET: footscray 2022, freo 2022 and 2023 first rounders

    from there we'd be in a good position to package one - or two? - of those plus our own 2023 first rounder to get further up in the 2022 draft board

    Difficult to see Tomlinson with us next year. He's too good for VFL.

    Could imagine a team like the Dogs parting with their second rounder for him.

    Our midfield depth is a media myth

    We're too light for rotations (assuming brayshaw never plays in the guts again)

    Our second tier mids in Sparrow and Harmes are among the worst in the comp 

    Rate Jordon but he's a utility sort you can put anywhere and is unlikely to be a starting centebounce midfielder 

    That wouldn't be the same Harmes that set the Deez on the road to glory in the third quarter of last year's Granny would it?

    It's like any player that has had a singular positive impact on grand final is completely untouchable for the rest of their career.. fmd.

    I'm still gobsmacked Steven Armstrong hasn't been inducted into the Hall of Fame for his 2 minute heroic in the 2006 Grand Final.

    Jake riccardi from the giants might be worth a look.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • 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.

      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?

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
