Assuming we lose Jacko and have some room in the cap, Zuhaar seems like a really good option. Exact kind of player we need. Out of contract and delayed talks until end of yr. 

Obviously this wouldn’t be direct compensation and we would need more as part of Jackson departing. Let’s not turn this into a Jackson thread.

    Would definitely improve us but a bit of an in-between type at only 189cm

    Not a KPF IMV. 

    Doesn’t need to be imo. Plays tall, great mark, explosive pace and will get much more supply at the Dees

    • Demonland changed the title to Cam Zuhaar

    He was excellent against the Tiges on the weekend. Good hands and kicks accurately. I'm sure we'd find a spot for him. He could bring Larkey with him as well

    Must admit first thing I did was check his stats after the game with a similar though, but too short and not the second coming of Dunstall, we already have a like player in Bailey Fritsch who with 6 in a GF I am comfortable with. We need a KPF and for me that is 194 plus, don't get me wrong I think he is a good player and 'nice to have' but not a 'need'. Of all the forwards going around have a big crush on Naughton, would take him over McKay, King or Curnow, never going to happen though. My second choice would be Logan McDonald but again just not likely.

    He does play a bit taller, like Toby Greene.

    Larkey is the one at North that best suits our game style. We need a big mature body that can offer us a get out of jail kick down the line option, and can bring the ball to ground for Koz and the smalls.

    We missed a trick with Levi Casboult in hindsight. He’s been terrific for the Suns, and would have filled TMac’s boots perfectly.

    Zurhaar would add some X factor to our forward line which it's lacking. He's gettable because he's out of contract. A big yes from me.

    Larkey over Zuhaar for mine. Though he’s one of North very few decent youngsters worth keeping, so no chance of getting him.

    we've been repeatedly linked with a breust or gunston move for a few years now and zurhaar would be exactly that type of player. i think theres absolutely room for him in the side as he compliments what we already have nicely and could take the place of a small or we could play with one less mid rotation like we did on the weekend by bringing in melksham for oliver.

    He only plays well when they sack the coach.

    God no, he is very average,  has one good game a year and is noticeably a lazy footballer.

    Amazing when he plays these games he is 24 in his 6th year never kicked more than 20 goals or ever aged more than 12 disposals.

    He would be another Mitch Hannan.  He is Petracca's size(3cm taller).  He should be tearing games apart week on week in the midfield!

    Prefer Aaron Cadman in the draft

    Except for 2019, 2021 and 2022. Averaging 1.8 goals a game this year, which is a 40 goal season if he plays every game.

    Fritsch is our medium forward with little defensive effort. Can’t afford another one.

    I don't watch many other games each week but I don't mind the idea.

    We have plenty of opportunistic goal kickers, not many that can create goals through physicality.

    Would have him

    My bad, was looking at the Games column not goals.

    but he is not playing every game,  so based on that he will end up with 24 goals by the end of the year.   at best he is a 30 goal a game player.  who are we moving out of our fwd line for him?

    IF, big IF, the dees believe they can get him super fit and turn him into a mid fwd, it would be great to have his type chopping Trac out in the middle.

    but i would not be happy paying $450k + for him, which is what he is going to want

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
