Paddy Cross it is

He might turn out to be a good choice, but at this stage imo he is clearly a talent choice over need, but as always in JT I trust.

    Does anyone actually believe if we add Ah-Mu or some other key forward they are genuinely going to be an afl option this season? I highly doubt it.

    I think if Ah Mu gets a chance at some stage, it will be to have him for the future, as he clearly needs AFL development.

    However he is a bull of a kid, with some talent, who if he improved, is a ruck/key forward type, who has just incidentally, got a talented, younger, taller and faster brother, who is in our NGA, not that it is the reason you would look at Tairon.

    I agree with you, I wouldn’t mind Ah-Mu on the list as a rookie. My post was more in relation to people saying we need a key forward as our stocks have taken a hit there. It’s highly unlikely whoever we would pick up would play anyway.

    Doesn’t matter at the moment now as we signed Paddy Cross, so look forward to seeing how he does.

    Just a question can we still recruit a player if we have any player goes on the long term injury list.

    We could via the mid-season draft, SSP signing period is now closed.

    Anyone know why the Tiges didn't stick with Blight? I suppose he was mature age when they took him.

    Balta, Miller, Gibcus, Trainor, Vlastuin, Broad, Gray mainly the reason he and Tylar Young were pushed out, list balance.

    Agree blight showed some signs.

    Hopefully cross proves his worth, i think similarly to henderson it will be obvious early on whether he has it or he doesnt at the next level. given his age i think he probably has secured himself 2 years on the list and a full pre-season, we're pretty lenient when other clubs like cats/pies know in 12 months and move on

    How is it a big risk 😂 ? He’ll be on a rookie contract, last player on the list, we’re not giving him 5 years at 5 mill

    Every skit spot is valuable and if he breaks down we’re a player short

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

    • NON-MFC: Round 02

      The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

      As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

    • PREGAME: Fremantle

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

    • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

      Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
