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.

Bingo, but Deelanders fall for it every year and the media generally know it’s a nothing story, but hey columns need to be filled

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
