Did Naughton start as a back? I can't remember if WB started him in the backline and then out of necessity he was moved forward.

Yes, he was recruited as a Centre Halfback. Luke played him forward as at the time they lacked a marking target. Given the backline is suspect I am surprised he hasn't been moved back but then they haven't had many marking targets until now

Gee 10 games? 

I guess it still beats 10 games of having nothing.

Yup 10 games, he doesn't travel, and it gives JVR good access to develop too.  

it's all a pipe dream but it could work if he wanted another medal.  i think he is happily retired though

Cal Twomey saying not to rule out Melbourne yet as a destination for Karl Amon.

Langdon and Amon on either wing would be awesome....Really rate him, elite field kick, has pace and skills, works really hard both ways.

Amon is exactly what we need, Jordan is a really good role player on the wing, but i actually think we're missing his hands inside, and Amons speed and kicking combination is something we really lack.

I can see clubs chasing Tomlinson and Bedford . Personally we have a lot of small forwards , one player will go. Tomlinson is finding it hard to break into the back six , ideally we should have tried him as a forward. BB and Weid are not up to it .

On the subject of Naughton will cost too much and he lacks consistency.

Exactly, Ed and Amon on either wing would be an incredible threat. Gives us more ability to hurt opposition by foot.

At 47.28 how consistent do you want?  6th in the Coleman and better than Fritta.  And he is only 22.

The boy can leap at the footy I'll give him that. 

If he is gettable we should have a go, but I don't think he is a better forward than Fritta.

Regardless of who is better (Naughton by a long way), two of them is better than one.

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
