A free agent

We are a number of clubs that have interest in Isaac Cumming according to Cal Twomey.

It's understood Adelaide, Port Adelaide, Fremantle and Melbourne are all keen on Cumming, who is one of the hottest unrestricted free agents still available on the market.

At 25 fills a gap in our list.

I think he helps us to replace what we lose at half back with Rivers going into the midfield. seems a very sensible target for us. 

 

Yeah a great target from a needs point of view. Outside player who's got sharp kicking skills. 

Would be best 22 straight away.


It’s a YES from me.  Excellent skills and has pace and run.  Would add to our team and allow Riv to move more into the midfielder role.   

There's a song about this gent ... some of the lyrics are as follows ...

"Our Isaac Cumming, I ask you is he any good?"
 

 

 

So who would Cumming or Huston push out of the team both are mid size defenders or would they play another roll. I wouldn’t have thought this is an area of the ground we are lacking talent in.

I know you can only get what’s available but I feel like we still need to be focusing on the talls in key backs, forwards and ruck, May Tmac and Gawn all over 30 with no obvious replacements coming up and only 1 proven key fwd playing at AFL level in JVR

Rivers into the midfield sacrifices some run and dash off half back. Neither Bowey nor Salem provide the speed, dare or penetrating kicking of Rivers. May and McDonald are likely to slow down even more next year, so surrounding them with some pace may prove to be important.

Completely agree that we need to go after key backs but unfortunately that may need to be through the draft. There's not a lot of high-end KPD talent though.

I've only heard people use [censored]ming Dumpster in terms of degrading women... is that your angle on the nickname?

Perhaps they'd take Howes' role in the back half, but I'd like to see him play wing and then we can push Windsor into the midfield. Probably not next year but in 2-3 years.

And Bowey's current role. I really think we should look at Bowey as a mid.

Not worried about his size anymore for the midfield role?

Not really. He could get a bit stronger over the ball, but another pre season enables this.

Tweaked hammy today. Has soft tissue history

Hmmmm. Third soft tissue injury this year. 

 

2 hours ago, whatwhat say what said:

excellent, let's get him cheaper and 'fix' him

As a RSA not sure we would get him too cheap. Would you pay him more than Rivers or McVee? We would probably have to pay him more to get him to sign. If he continues to have soft tissue issues then it could be problematic.  

I am super keen on signing Cumming as a free agent.  Definitely put a 5 year deal on the table.  He is cheaper and less draft picks than Houston, with similar roles.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
