SEN had Josh Bruce's manager on this morning and he couldn't possibly be any more adamant that Bruce will be a dish licker next year.

But, at the Bulldogs?

    One of my good friends was heavily involved with Carlton years back and flicked me a message that Jack Watts had just done a medical with them after about his third season with us.

    I scurried so excitingly to demonland to drop the massive news thinking I was the first with a scoop only to be politely correct by the demonland faithful that Mr Watts was indeed having a few frothies on an overseas end of season trip with the lads and I was in fact a goose.  

    I ended up giving my mate a call and just got the standard "lol" response which was deserved.

    A couple lads I know are working in similar circles now basically in their dream job.  They're always giggling at these rumours and keep their cards very close to their chests.

    If they were ever to leak out info about targets/trades, then it would be game over for the career.  So I always struggle to believe people when they're advised of these little scoops about contracted players or potential targets unless it comes from the target or there managers first.

    Loose lips sink ships..... and end careers.  Why would you?

    I agree with this unless your name is Matt Rendell and you just go blabbing on the radio.

    Ben King would be an interesting one. The only KPF in contract that I would've expected as gettable.

    GNF said a contracted KPF. I'm trying to join dots as to realistic yet decent KPF. Schache and Bruce are not the answer...

    Technically we got a KPF, not sure if he was contracted or not.

    But in all seriousness we need some banter/scuttlebutt this time of year. I don't care if it's fake news or not. We should all understand a lot happens this time of year and not everythign happens.

    Some are taking the P!55 but not sure why some take it so personally.

    If it was Shache I assume GNF will now say so.

    It was not Shache.  

    If we don't land the KPF we have been targeting I will let DL know at 8:30pm who it is.  If we don't get him this year I am certain we will try again next year.  He has been on our radar since he was a junior even touring the club as a16yo. We were to take him in our next pick in his draft year but were beaten to him.  

    The club see this player and JVR as the perfect two pronged KPF future.

    That's sounding like Lynch. Taken before the Lucas Cook debacle.

    From memory you mentioned a similar situation last year, and it was Tim Membrey. Him again?

    It's Georgiades and would love it to happen/be true.

    I would be surprised.  Eagles couldn't prise him out of Port as part of the Rioli deal and Georgiades is from WA.

    But could also be, if it’s true, that he might want  to go to a team in the window?

    Koschitzke? 

     

    Taken the pick before Aaron Nietscke. 

     

    He would fit the bill. Out of contract end of 2023.

     

    THIS IS THE MAN. What do I win?

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
