Riccardi definitely worth a look. not getting a game. 

And Brown isnt even in the emergencies. We should go hard and hopefully land one. Cadman looking like he’ll be a gun so they are stacked

    Anyone know Henry Smith from the Lions?

    206cm ruckman 12 tackles and 52 hitouts in the VFL Prelim.

    scored 17.11 this year too. 

    At 21, would be a good fit to learn from Gawny?

    He’s definitely going to be a player. He’s had 3 years in the system and bulking out.  At 21yo, now he’s in line behind Omac (30) and he’s gone past Fort.  Smith debuted this year.  Contracted to 2026. Lions wouldn’t be letting him go.  He’s better than Verrall or Fullarton imv.

    Guess we can expect to find out the intentions of a few GWS players this week.

    GWS now officially out.

    Seems like Peatling will stay.

    Wonder if we'll hear Waje Derksen request a trade?

    Riccardi only out of the team through injury right?

    Wouldn't have much reason to request a trade, apart from money or family reasons

    Correct. Hadn't missed a game from Round 10 last year until he got injured this year and needed surgery which ended his season. Lachie Keeffe, who hadn't played to that point, took his spot as the third tall/back-up ruck (with Hogan and Cadman the other two).

    I’m not sure Keeffe didn’t offer more tho as a genuine back up ruck and big aggressive body.

    Riccardi a taller less talented Fritsch. The two of them in the same side would drive supporters (not just me) crazy.

    Wouldn’t shock me if the Giants moved on Riccardi to open the spot for Max G. Especially if they pick up Crows Himmelberg for mature depth. But I suspect they keep him to cover the young talls.

    Odd.  Did we finish 14th again next year as well as being allowed a two year future first pick trade exemption?

    No mate, we offered LY and this Year Picks and way it has turned out means it is the largest offer ever made for one player/pick based on the points its ended-up accumulating at.

    Matt Kennedy told to explore his options

    Would definitely fit the bill if we’re looking for experienced midfield depth 

    I actually really rate Kennedy so wouldn’t mind it at all if he came for a later pick or two

    Could he fill ANB’s role?

    Our second round pick tied to Swans (38?) perhaps?

    I hope we don't touch 5 & soon to be 25

    He killed us in (was it?) 2020 in an empty Marvel stadium.

    If he's been told to go elsewhere and not part of their best 22 plans then they surely can't expect a 2nd round pick, no matter how late it is.

    Bulldogs 3rd at pick 50 should do if we were interested.

    I’m very much in favour of exploring the Matt Kennedy situation. 

    We need more midfield power. He wants that opportunity. But he can genuinely play forward which helps with rotations.

    Carlton pair Matt Kennedy + Lewis Young have been told they’re free to look around elsewhere for a new home in 2025.
    Kennedy had an honest conversation with Michael Voss last week - he sees himself as an inside midfielder, the Blues see him continuing half-forward role. 

    I’d be happy to grab Kennedy for a pick in the 50s/60s

    Owies was a player I’d thought would be nice to have as he’s very handy around the goals.

    Was it in pre season then? Didn't he kick 4 goals against us?

    Edited by Adam The God
    It was pre season 2022, and he kicked 2 goals and had 37 touches.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
