there's a common theme occurring...

  • jake melksham - second rounder
  • michael hibberd - second rounder
  • ed langdon - second rounder (effectively)
  • brodie grundy - second rounder
  • shane mcadam - second rounder

any others?

 

Melbourne are silly dealing with the grubby Crows club. We'll look desperate .  R2 pick for a  inconsistent injury prone player ?   

Bin it. Move on.

I'll be the judge of that.


Fully fit Fritsch and McAdam could be a nightmare duo to matchup for opposition defences in 2024

I can't see them both in the same team, it's one or the other.  Unless we are planning to only play one Key forward 

Shane may be just the jigsaw piece  needed to complete the forward puzzle. Enigma to some of course but a great western in the tradition of Stand off at the Corvid Corral.

reckon they both play round 1 personally. 

Nice to have a Western Australian who wants to come here!

He's had an interesting career. I didn't realise he only started playing AFL in 2024. His SANFL form in limited games pushed him into AFL contention via mature aged pre draft by Carlton before Adelaide wanted him in the McGovern deal.

He certainly consistently hits the scoreboard. Has some serious athleticism.

I think he will be a great addition with his speed, ability to mark as a medium fwd (186cm) and seems to be clean with the ball.

So we recruit a bloke to play VFL again LOL

Fritsch and McAdam will work well

Oh well, atleast we'll have a half decent Casey side in 24.

Please dont recruit Gunston as well. His career is all but done.

There are no readymade forwards out there coming to us. We can win it as long as our 4 main forwards stay healthy and we send Trac forward when necessary.

I'm bereft. That's a cumulative half hour a day I now have to find something else to do with!

But welcome, Shane, to you and to your fairly successful first name, MFC-wise. As to your surname, we'll endeavour to get it right by the time of your 30th goal in 2024.

 

Would Blake Howes swap his Shane Woewodin / Shane McGrath 22?

Closer to the NT and add the fact he had relocated to Adelaide for a few years before getting taken by Carl/Adel

Would be good to land his brother Ash Johnson also

I can see us looking at a small fwd line with both playing.  You would hope with what we have paid he is playing round 1.

I"m sure he will be, but how long it lasts i dunno.  Hopefully I'm eating my words after 20+ games and 40 goals!

We used the F2nd because we have 2 of them and only one F3rd.  It means we can still trade our F1st.

We have 2 future 3rds care of Harmes, no?

(😁 A typo no doubt, YB, but...)

To any who think his career so far hasn't been up to AFL standard, that'll be good news!

Yes, and I hadn’t realised he drives a De Lorien.

Ok please explain why you cannot play both?

Yes you're right, sorry.  I was thinking Fullarton cam for a F3rd.

He will take Melksham's spot until at least well into the year when (hopefully) Melky is over his ACL. When they are all fit and in form will be an interesting selection query...

  • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
