Ned is yet to re-sign with the Suns after a break-out (half) of 2023

Averaging 29 touches per game from round 15 onwards (after previously only playing four games from R1-R14)

What's interesting to note with Flanders is that even in this break out stretch, he's only hit above 50% centre bounce attendances in two games, with a 29% average for the year.

    100% I would target.

    Actually surprised we haven't been mentioned as a club of interest considering we did back in his under 18's year.

    Hopefully we're in the hunt.

    Surely Hardwick wants to keep him?

    Would have thought we’d be more chance of getting Elijah Hollands.

    True, but Hollands would be easier to get because the Suns don’t want him. They’re different players. One can’t get a game in a trash forward line. The other has been their best midfielder in the second half of the season. 

    I’d love to get Flanders, but we don’t have the currency unless we’re happy to trade them pick 15. We’d be better served using 15 as part of a trade to upgrade picks this draft IMO.

    Damn. Good signature for the suns to get. He’s tearing it up and looks to have a solid future ahead of him there. Oh well, we didn’t have the locks to get him anyway without compromising our draft period.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
