don't believe so, last i heard is he was out of contract at the end of 2024, when he'll be a free agent

Sun reported he is set to sign up but nothing official yet

I hope Larkey doesn't sign on again with North. He'd be great in the red and blue but fair play if he sticks with North. I don't mind players showing loyalty to their club even if it means we miss out.

I would try and target the following in order of who I’d like most to who is probably the most realistic 

1. Larkey 

2. Naughton 

3. McKay (Ben) 

4. Himmelberg (but not for the reported $900k!)

5. Georgiadis 

I'd have Allen at 1, if not 2 on this list and would argue he'd be just as gettable, the eagles need the draft currency

Apparently he’s a WA boy making a bucket of money. So sadly no chance. 
I mean I’d take Jeremy Cameron and Charlie Curnow too, but we need to be realistic here.

Harry McKay if Carlton lose the plot 🤪. Naughton if he got a haircut. Would love Dixon, but that ain’t happening.

Great talent, but at 24 he's one of the players you build your team around.

I wouldn't think they're mad enough to move him on.

Love Bowser, but reckon he's too small for the midfield.

Daniels is not too small. That's a furphy if good enough then give him a go. 

size is a poor excuse by a team when  as the individual most likely desires a chance to prove a reason like that wrong.

Would love a rookie pick like Nick Martin. 192cm classy, hard running midfielder who can kick.

Maybe Howes will get there but someone like Finn Callahan...

Cerra, Zac Williams, McGovern, Jack Martin, Hewitt and Saad

Saad goes ok

 

Jack Martin would’ve been a great had he chose Melbourne!!!

Hayden McLean, Oscar Allen & Georgiadis are the ones to watch here…

Nick Martin is just wow! Same trajectory as Hird right now. Howes is a terrific prospect but not quite as silky as Martin or the goal sense but has a floor of someone like Acres or ceiling of say Bailey Dale or Redman!

Did his ACL earlier in the year, so will be coming off a long lay off, might not be as aerially captivating as he was before.

Oscar Allen is also a lead up forward, as compared to a contested beast.

GWS's Jake Riccardi might be a good fit. 23, 198cm, 100kg. Always looks good when I see them, but doesn't seem to get much love. Played under Williams at Werribee before getting drafted. Not sure of his contract status.

I wouldn’t bring in any mature key forward unless he is a regular best 22.

Certainly would draft another and develop Jefferson and Verrall.

If there was a best 22 key forward we could get next year, then absolutely.

We need a key forward but I would be going all in for trading up the draft. We would want as much high end draft talent as possible before Tassie come in and take all the picks

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
