Worth a punt?

Does battle hard and can give us some depth back/forward if we suffer from injuries

Thought he was ok in the cameos last season which is why he was picked ahead of Ash Johnson

Injury-hit big man Nathan Kreuger, former Saint Jack Bytel among three Collingwood Magpies delisted (afl.com.au)

Not sure about picking up a player who is always injured as a depth replacement for injuries.

He has definitely shown talent but can't stay on the park.

Rookie list option at the most.

    It's a free hit

    I would consider Membrey or Kruger for the reasons above (all things considered like age, injury history) - better than backup - could make an impact at crucial times if not season regulars. Kruger is a beast.

    Our back depth is an interesting one given 2 of them are playing as forwards.

    Think we're 1 big fella short but not sure if this is the answer.

    Would prefer to keep Hore as cover for Lever and Tommo cover for T Mac

    If Tommo leaves I agree we are one tall back short

    if we're going for a delisted tall, u want reliability. so membrey is front of the queue. down back id look at ethan phillips or harry arnold but probably unnecessary as im expecting petty goes back next year

    Pies need his type more than we do and delisted him.

    Constantly injured and 15 games in 6 years is not a good recommendation.

    Petty doesn’t go back if May, Lever and Tom are playing. One more season will change that though.

    15 games in 6 years, but of course one of those would include torching us.

    We should get him, just to watch him kick 8 in the intra-club

    He clearly has talent but 15 games since the start of 2021 has red flag written all over it.

    David King last night reeled off half a dozen players, either delisted by their clubs or told to explore their options, who were taken late in the draft by another club.

    He included Billings.

    Not one success story.

    I just can't see Billings, McAdam or Fullarton getting a regular gig.

    And then we have Laurie, Adams, Sestan, Verrall, Kentfield and now Tom Campbell.

    Spargo has a lot of ground to make up. Hore is only ever going to be back-up.

    That's close to 25% of our list.

    I don't want Freddy Kruegar. Nor do I want Membrey.

    Far too injury prone for my liking.

     

    Would rather the Demons take a chance on Denver Grainger-Barras from Hawthorn.

     

    He was pick #6 in the 2020 AFL National Draft and still has a lot of talent and potential. Would rather we snap him away from Carlton too!

    I don’t rate him but he did get a hold of May and Co this year with 3 snags and 7 marks.

    Wouldn’t be a better option than Turner in terms of best 23, but you can never have enough depth.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
