As I mentioned in another thread many clubs will come for JUH next year. Probably around if not above 5 x $1M.

Will Dogs have the money to keep him after the mega Naughton deal. They also need to recruit a key back

Definitely a club to keep an eye on (and of course will Beveridge be there at year's end)

 

A forward-line of Mcdonald/Brown, Gunston and Fritsch scares me to death given their poor ability to compete and pressure at ground level.

Fritsch is basically our Gunston. Two crafty forwards who are finishers, are medium/talls and provide next to no pressure on ground level. 

I'd be baffled if we went after him.

 

Forward comes out of contract / requests trade = Melbourne must have interest 🙄

There’s no way we’re bringing in Gunston when we’re already likely to have Fritsch, McAdam and Smith as medium tall options and Melksham potentially coming in late in the year 


A fine player, but I don't think his style would suit our 'system'.

The thing about the Naughton deal is it's like Clarry and Trac's deal. Such a long term that it provides flexibility and certainty to list management strategy and TPP management.

If Naughton had signed a shorter deal, say five years, then I think JUH would have been gettable.

That said, Croft coming in is another that threatens that key tall post.

I wouldn't be surprised if Naughton and Darcy end up taking the key back posts.

He was so bad this year he had to drop himself to the VFL. Only fired against WC which means nothing.

If I was Hawhtorn I'd be saying thanks but no thanks... not sure why they would need him back

How about Gunston + 30 to the Hawks for 63?

Gunston is 193 cms, just saying. He is taller than all 4 you named.

I agree that we don’t want him... but didn’t we try to recruit him 1 or 2 seasons ago? When we already had Fristch et al?

Rumours a few years ago, but nothing last year as far as I know.

I’d have no issue with prime(ish) Gunston and Fritsch. Gunston could always defend well for his role when he was fit.

I don’t like it now he’s older and seemingly uncommitted to a team. And when we’re almost free of the veterans and surely ready to target a long term solution if Petty isn’t the answer. 

McAdam's in.

Close thread.

  • 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.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
