Way too early to be worried about  it. I’ll take it as a compliment to the recruiting and development of our youngsters.

This would be gold if true. Shove it up Jon Ralph who lives off starting “stories” for clicks.

Think the blame should be put on player agents that leak these kind of stories to up the player's price. Ralph isn't making this stuff up.

Sounds like Sparrows agent needed some negotiation power to get a better deal for Tom

delighted he’s signed  could go next level this year  Our best kick off one step

if true, then ralphy's "scoop" must be one of the shortest scoops on record. not even 1 day.

hope he and his fellow reprobate scribblers are not having a culture problem. 😮

Reilly O'Brien is UFA end of 2025. Four years younger than Max. Could co-incide with Max's retirement?

I need to see evidence of re signing. A must keep player.

I don't like Adelaide. They are getting up into the realm of hideousness with the filth and geelong.

Crows supporters seem to hate him

Awesome signing! Sparrow has played a really selfless team role the last 3 years which probably hasn't allowed him to show supporters how good he actually is! i've spoken to a couple of people involved with the club and they both said they rate him as an elite prospect and think he can become an All Australian level midfielder. 

I would expect he will play a more balanced role in 2024 and we'll see him kicking more goals, taking more marks and being a real handful around the ground. there is a lot of Luke Parker about him

Tell Adelaide they are dreaming!

Adelaide is a great place, terrific city in which to live - kinda like Melbourne was in the 1950s. As for luring Sparrow, they can pull the other leg - Sparrow is going to be a Demon STAR.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
