Walsh is on $1m and I doubt we have that room in the cap and I am not sure he's worth it.

No ones paying all of that. He’s a first round pick and $750, Carlton can pay the rest.

    Rubbish. Walsh is a free agent next season and will get a monster deal if he leave Carlton.

    He has had Multiple Back Surgeries. He is worth nowhere near that.

    Luke Jackson is worth the big contract

    Agree with SWYL. Wouldn't go near Walsh. Wouldn't go near McKay either for his price tag.

    I’ve heard the “he’s cooked” about so many players who have then moved clubs and regained past form. To be honest above all I’d take Jackson. I reckon a mobile, strong marking ruck who can play forward would be ideal. It’s also a magnificent story and an up yours to Freo. It’s a win win win. Who doesn’t love a win win win?

    almost as good as a bang bang bang

    Do we want McKay? History suggests that we do. Will we pay his salary? Not when we have bigger fish to fry like keeping Kosi.

    And we don't need Walsh, he's a Temu version of Clarry.

    if we put 2026 first rounder on the table and Blues coughed up $250K of his salary, then i think that would be a fair trade. Maybe throw in this years 2nd rounder for good measure.

    What do we need for Kalani White? In terms of draft picks to get him.

    McKay could be a very good CHF if he does some serious work on his kicking, he would be a solid 2nd Ruck.

    But he sure as hell aint worth a $ million Bucks a year.

    Poor Carlscum have totally butchered their Playing list…they are the wost kicks in the League by a long way

    Cripps getting 44 votes in the Brownlow, what an absolute joke, he is a solid player, but nowhere near that level.

    Sam Walsh is cooked. He has the Back of a 60 year old.

    They should've let him come to the Dees at the end of 2022.

    We would've won two more premierships and Carlton would have more cap space and balance in their list. Huge missed opportunity 😜

    You might be right. I was more talking out of hope than reality. I do that from time to time. Like in Roost it Far world there’s quite a lot of differences to current reality. I won’t bore you with details.

    We should 100% be interested if it is a salary dump situation

    I don’t know what we could offer to make a deal work but we’ve been crying out for a McKay style player for years

    2m players who can take marks, kick goals and chop out in the ruck are invaluable, and I dare say if he was on our list in 2023 we would have won the flag

    Plus with his kicking for goal, he’ll fit right in 🤣

    Carlton are likely to win their next 4. Essendon, West Coast, North and Port. I wouldn't be writing them off just yet.

    There are not terrible but they are not great either.

    Not many good disposers. And they are not a young team. They do not look like a top 4 team and I’m not sure there’s improvement to come to make them top 4. I don’t think their list is in great shape. McKay is the obvious sacrifice to try to improve them elsewhere.

    Yep, LJ for me ... big return home, still lots to offer.

    I prefer LJ but would also take McKay if not too expensive.

    McKay would fill the BBB role plus a tad more on occasions imv.

    We need a big marking beast up forward. Fill him with kicking confidence. A new change of scenery / crew and he'd be right as rain.

    Trade in this bloke and our kicking coach will be the one taking a mental health break.

    no, he's on about $1.4m this year

    will reduce to an average of $800k over the course of his contract

    if the medja can be believed

    McKay is also the 2nd highest rated 2nd ruck only behind Blitzavs (Champion Data).

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
