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?

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
