bergman is like rivers but a far, far superior kick

we are just one of a myriad of melbourne-based teams 'keeping tabs' on him according to tombstone; aints have been in the market for a long time

Bergman’s going at 67% kicking efficiency this year compared to Trent’s 72%, Port fans will tell you he loves a turnover actually

This isn’t going to end well on this forum…

You need to add a smiling emoji to signify you are joking.

If your actually serious then you deserve a lifetime ban.

Takes the riskier kick and gets more of it

Raw #s only tell part of the story

I’d like him at the Dees but think it’s unlikely

Isnt top flight by any stretch, but would be in the upper echelon of the next rung down. I like his speed and athletic ability. In fact would be a close substitute for Pig.

Bergman in allows us to move Lindsay on to the wing permanently without losing pace and ball use from the back.

Alternatively, it allows us to replace Salo. Or push Rivers into midfield permanently.

More kickers with pace who can defend back there the better.

Upgrade on Salo..didn’t think about that. Good pick up.

The stats don't agree, Bergman is rated in the top 20 worst kicks in the comp according to champion data. The champion data system all takes into consideration the level of risk, pressure etc.

Can we please target anyone who is a half decent KPF. We have zero at present. I don't care who we trade with or how much they cost.

I think Petty, Turner and JVR are the beginnings going forward. All have shown significant promise at times. It’s not unusual for a tall’s development to be slower than a mids. I’d certainly keep looking to add further tall players but I’m taking mid/forwards as first up. If we add Jackson I fear we’ll need a Pickett replacement.

I disagree, your three will not take us to a GF. Turner is a fairly good player. Petty struggles against good sides and I don't rate JVR, his best play is as a back up ruckman.

Still call Schwarta Theo instead of the Ox 😆

He was high up on our list in his draft year. Can play


Melbourne has thrown its hat in the ring for out-of-contract Port Adelaide defender Miles Bergman, who is weighing up a move back to Victoria.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Defender | 23-years-old | 93 games

The Saints, Bulldogs and Demons are expected to long-term make offers that could turn his head.

Yep, JT was a big fan of Bergman's in his draft year wasn't he?

Good get. Vesatile HBer and replacement for Salem.

 

The amount of complaints about having Ben brown and Josh Schache on the list for too long was hard on the ears. IMO a list doesn’t need 6+ key forwards and we currently have

Petty*

Turner*

JVR

Jefferson

Fullarton

Johnson

Kentfield*

With Verrall as a ruck/fwd type on the list too. I get that petty and turner are swing types and kentfield is being trialed as a chb, but would rather not see any more brought on to the list until we decide someone is out first.

  • 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.
