Is a Naughton that bad of a kick for goal? He has a history kicking a lot of goals in a season.

He has some shocking misses but gets so many opportunities that he usually makes up for it - I’d trade for him in a heartbeat 

Would love to see him play almost a similar role to TMac in 2021 - taking big grabs up on the wings and delivering to our forwards advantage

    Jack Darling’s resume reads: premiership player, All Australian, 5 time club leading goalkicker and Eagles life member. Has played 20+ games for year.  Contract expires end 2024. 

    31 yo. 510 goals. 1300 marks. 

    Sure age is a factor. But whilst we are in the premiership window and having key forwards still developing, is he worthy of a phone call?  Just a thought  …just an opinion

    What are your thoughts on Tyler Keitel for some added depth?

    From the WAFL, 2023 leading goal kicker (57 goals from 18 games), age 27, 196 cm, 91 kg, ready to go. Averaged 3.2 goals/game, 5.1 marks, 13.9 disposals.

    Has a booming kick on him, marks 55m out and slots them through. Looks like he can take a mark as well.

    https://www.afl.com.au/video/911692/wafl-showreel-r3-tyler-keitel-highlights?videoId=911692&modal=true&type=video&publishFrom=1682230200001

    My only concern is the 27 years of age, however, he appears far far more capable than Schache while Tom McDonald and Ben Brown will 31 years of age next year. Worth a look at, at least from a rookie stand point.

    Nup no good, why do we need a strong leading, strong marking player when we will just continually bang it in over his head??

    Yep.

    We need a KPF tall enough to outmark anyone. Basically a 3metre Peter

    Harry McKay has gone backwards at 300m/hr. Barely worth a late first rounder. Wouldn’t touch him with a 14ft pole.

    The problem is there isn’t a Tom Lynch hanging round to grab like Richmond did in 2019.

    Petty and JVR with an extra pre season is in my mind at least equal to TMAC and BBB. It’s not Buddy and Roughy but it’s enough. 
     

    I think our problem is we haven’t replaced Jackson as Grundy wasn’t the answer. 

    These two are huge talents but Petty seems very injury prone and Jvr really needs to get his agro under control.  These two firing and unfettered will be awesome but I reckon given the status of the other three you mentioned really means we need two more big fwds. Plus Grundy is moving on as well. Hope we can find some.

    What would they want? It’s a first rounder for sure. F1 and a couple of 2s this year?

    Need someone, anyone to bridge the gap between the 2 main guys and Schache and the broken old fellas

    Good 3rd tall option but hasn’t been healthy enough to count as a reliable depth and could easily be needed at the other end. 

    I’d put him down as Melksham replacement but still need at least 2 ready to go options to replace Grundy, BBB and T Mc.

    I reckon Naughton might be our best chance in nabbing a Tall Power Forward out of Contract in 2024, 24 years of age, Dogs desperate for picks.

    Been poor this year Naughts are change of scenery with his mates Lachie and big Shaq dog might be what the doctor ordered, times are changing for WB.

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
