    Wouldn't have thought a small forward would be high on their priority list given they had Bobby Hill, Jack Ginnivan, Jamie Elliott & Beau McCreery all playing in their GF team.

    He's an upgrade on Ginnivan, Elliot is aging.

    Makes complete sense.

    Elliot is 31, Ginnivan is looking like he is not 1st choice , McCreery is avearge and a bad kick at goal. Bobby Hill had a great finals series but inconsistent.

    I'd take schulze over all of the above @ the Dee's . He is a tough smart forward and just what we need, bummer he will end up at the filth

    It’s not done yet, if I’m Freo I’m asking for 2 first round picks.

    North would surely offer one of their end of first rounders if they could get him.

    No reason for Freo to give him away a year early for anything but massive overs.

    Bloody good get by Collingwood. Schultz is a gun. Just the sort of player we need.

    1 year left. Freo should drive a hard bargain. Will definitely take Pick 18 and some change to get it done.

    Once you put on that jumper you close the door to the Dees!

    Freo really is a joke of a club though....

    Is Jackson regretting his decision to leave us?.... wait a minute he's got 900k one dollar bills to wipe off his tears.

    Interesting that 30mins ago Goldstein has been confirmed to make his way to the bombers but no confirmation on McKay. Think they were submitted at the same time.

    Schulz a free agent next year, due to delisted free agency. What a mess that covid inspired exception is.

    If I’m Freo I’m still holding him and expecting someone to pay end of first round money based on Doedee.

    If it's pick 3 though they are taking that and running no? Adelaide didn't match doedee and got pick 19 straight away today. 

    Maybe wishfully thinking but perhaps it's not band 1 like they hoped?

    the problem with this is that players demand trades and pretty much always get their way

    if clubs had the ability to trade players under contract where they so chose, he would - as you said earlier - probably be exchanged for one of north's end of first round compo-for-being-[censored] picks and he'd be there for a year before being able to sign wherever he wants as a free agent

    the trade and free agency system in afl is garbage

    It's borderline tampering with fair competition, just look at the JHF situation.

    Trading players without their consent is terrible, they don’t make enough money for that disruption.

    It’s a terrible system. There’s lots of better changes possible.

    But clubs do hold players to contracts. There’s plenty who want to leave and don’t make it to trade week.

    Freo can hold him or open up bids to everyone else if the Pies don’t come to the party. The nature of the family issues and the Pies keenness to pay up will probably determine if Freo budge.

    • PODCAST: 2026 Season Preview

    • 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.
