He's from country Victoria and is a Geelong supporter. Will likely be down at the cattery in a few years time and handed the keys to the city.

We need to remind him that Tongala is closer to the MCG than it is to Geelong  🤗

    So you're thinking we should throw in a few dairy heifers?

    Like it

    Jersey or Frisian?

    That article is substandard.

    ”...more than unlikely...”

    Ugh.

    All based on the fact that WC haven’t accepted a deal to date, which would defy logic if they had.

    Just terrible sports journalism.

    Will be over soon, as WC need to decide to trade or not by 5pm this arvo...

    Reckon we go for it if WC open, as our quality makes it hard for many kids to get top level exposure early in their careers... and we have flags to win.

    No left foot. It's a huge risk for WCE to ignore the substantial offers being made for pick 1.

    Read between the lines...@rjay

     

     

    Did you mean Reid between the lines?

    He's doing lines?

    Crikey, stay away from this bloke! He's bad news!!!

    Seems settled in the newspapers that the Eagles will take Reid.

    Is it still a 2 year contract or did the proposal that the top draft picks get a three year contract get approved.

    You have to wonder what the Eagle's retention approach will be. Cannot see that they will do much better than 14th during the next two years. No young talent coming through it seems.

    Assuming he goes to a Melbourne club at the end of year 2 for say $1.5M x 6 years would the Eagles get anymore than say pick 8 and a future first

    It’s three year contracts from next year onwards - so it does give the Eagles a bit more insurance

    A paper bag in the middle of the road huh, fancy tripe eating pants! You rich people want to just rub it in ... we lived under tree bark in a laneway at the bottom of a hill where the rain water would pool!

    It's 3 years and he'll be king of Perth by then. Good luck getting him back. Maybe by FA age like Chris Judd after he has a flag there.

    Luxury!

    We would gather the water left over from No. 31’s pooling to drink then trudge 20 miles to the tissue box we lived in … and … considered ourselves lucky.

    Nigel Satyerley and property development will be their retention strategy as it was for Judd and Simpson

    Imo we are still a chance to get Reid.

    It all depends on the certainty of Curtin getting to our pick 6.

    Roos and Dogs won’t take him, as Roos are still gun shy because of JHF and apparently want Zane and Coby and Dogs have too many talls.

    The Hawks are the key to a Reid deal by not taking Curtin.

    Which is maybe why we’re trying to work out a deal with Hawthorn for pick 4.

    • 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.
