Umm, this is a regular occurrence across the AFL industry. Just because it's the 'narrative' of the club at the moment doesn't mean there needs to be an another article on it. 'Journalism' stooping to a new low.

The Neal-Bullen situation probably opened this up.  If we are willing to let one contracted player return home for family reasons why wouldn't clubs try and push for another to do the same.

Tomorrows the headline will be Max Gawn Could Potentially Consider Answering Phone if Rival Was to Call Just Days After Inking New Contract

Makes sense.. Kane has been talking down his value for weeks and now the fanboys club is flagging interest. Good to see as a Port advocate he is well aligned with their strategy! 

Koz is 100% off the trade table. He is exactly what we need with some more dynamic kids to be added this year.

I'm going to reach out to Sydney Sweeney's agent to let them know of my interest in her.

Not sure you have the trade value to offer. Gonna have to wait for free agency.

I don't think so. If ANB was of the same quality as Kozzie, we would hold him to his contract, and make arrangements to satisfy his family issues in SA.

Just publish a list of every teams "wishlist".

Most would start with our list, but they can't have them. Tell them all to go and get >>>>>.

And yes, there are far too many so called footy journos. What a waste of electrons and paper.

They will every year, get used to it. Jeepers Dees fans are really not used to having good players.

It's not just that Ted - it's the fact that it's 2024 and not 2004 or even 1984 where players were loyal to their club ie Chris Grant...effectively no matter what.

But even the best player of all time (IMO) Garry Ablett Snr and his son changed clubs.

Even Barassi, and even Jakovich

Now I don't think a player has to be loyal to their club no matter what at all - > but player movement is now a very accepted practice within the industry and supporter bases have yet to catch up emotionally. And that makes sense as well.

So it's open season for the media to talk about our players under contract?

Not only under contract, long term contracts.

Can they go away and talk about other similar players from opposition clubs? 

Do you see all these drivle about any other club?

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
