all the initial reports are saying geelong which makes sense given touhy and o'connor are so settled and ingrained there as well as his apparent connection with pops kelly from their time at the dons but i hope we're in play here. ticks a lot of boxes. excellent balance between elite kicking and blistering pace, would arrive as a DFA so no cost included in picking him up and would be an ideal replacement for hibbo long term and by joining us he'd get a proper chance at a flag. we also have the irish heritage and connection ingrained inour clubs history which could be appealing to mckenna, every irishman looks up to jim and the chance to play for the same team is surely a lure.

sidenote, how on earth are teh cats fitting in Hopper, McKenna, Grundy, Bruhn and Bailey Scott? asking for a mate

    I thought he left because he was homesick. You'd want to make sure he's not going to bail again after a year or two.

    Maybe it was partly due to homesickness, but iirc it had more to do with the shellacking he copped from the media and footy fans alike over the positive Covid test result that necessitated the postponement of their game against us in 2020.

    Agree. Cats would already be at the salary cap max in my view. Sure probably Higgins and Isaac-Smith retire but there’s extra $$ for many existing cats.

    Walked out to go home with a year to go on his contract, buyer beware.

    Plus "Geelong" is a Gaelic word.

    I believe it is the shortened form of "Gee - long in the tooth", gaelic for middle aged footballer.

    Ah to be sure to be sure. Would fit right in at Geelong.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
