Would be a very handy addition. Houston's inclusion at half back would free up Rivers to become a permanent mid. He's a great kick and would provide plenty of run.

I'd be very keen on Houston but, then again, I'm a "glass half full" kind of person. 

I think Dan's more of a "glass about to be empty" kind of person.

At his age he should come pretty cheap too

You think?

He won't be cheap imo.

I guess it's what you are thinking we will have to give up for him compared to his quality level. All Australian last year. Contracted for another 2 years.

The contracted part worries me, you'd be giving up a lot for him

But looking at your avatar, we have the ability to draft guns with later picks and rookie selections. Maybe it's time to get some ready made players with our first round picks in the teens to beef up the midfield and overall playing list as the kids develop!

Gun. You’d happily give up a 2025 or 2026 first rounder for him especially with us having F/S and academy players coming through in those years.

Two first rounders for a guy who's 27??? Yeh, nah

And highy, highly assumptive that f/s draftees will nominate us. Kalani White is by no means over the line

But we could get 15 McVee's with the picks we'd give up!

I’d be more interested in trading for him if Harrison is dead set on getting to SA it shouldn’t matter Crows or Port.

The club already knows where Kalani is playing.

My bad, I thought he was 30.

Not sure where I got that number but I thought I heard it said he was.

Interesting that we're interested in another half back. If Petty was set on returning to SA and we got Houston and their first rounder, we could make the best of a bad situation.

Would rather keep Petty though.

Hear this kids name get thrown around a lot but never hear anything about his footy… 

We have, actually, in the context of this year's carnival. A bit underwhelming, it has seemed. I sometimes wonder if 'his footy' has been less about Kalani and more about Jeff...

i think he's a 16 year old very tall, very skinny kid who has already played 'up' in a very strong allies side

he's rated, clearly

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. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

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
