A reliable source (the next door neighbour of my brother's ex-girlfriend) has told me that we are making a big play for Kayne Pettifer

A trade for an unknown MFC player is on the cards.

Don't shoot the messenger.

    Kayne who?

    Has this bloke done anything in his career?

    Melbourne would be stupid to go anywhere near him.

    Has been a 30-35 goal a season small forward for the last 3 years. May have been a chance for a trade if Robbo had left but unlikely.

    Again, only a chance if Bailey sees Davey and Sylvia playing in the midfield next year.

    I would be livid if we picked up another hack like Pettifer. It would be akin to our acquisition of Gary Moorecroft in my opinion. We have enough pinch-hitting midfielder-cum-forwards that I can safely say we do not need another [censored] forward to kick our goals.

    Moorcroft was a dud. He was a dud before we got him and he didn't get better from then.

    Pettifer is better than that and is more of a genuine small forward than a "pinch hitter". Also the 37 goals he kicked last year in the bottom side would have put him a clear second on our goal kicking list. That said, if we wanted a player like that, I'd much rather go for someone like Higgins from the bulldogs - but he's not likely to be available.

    At least we're recognising our need for crumbers.

    We are hopeless at keeping the ball in our forward half, what with Yze, Robbo and Neita and their superb speed and willingness to chase :rolleyes:

    Agree with this.

    I was hoping Davey would stay in the forward line next year along with Sylvia to combat this problem.

    What I meant was we have enough pinch-hitters that we don't need another hack version of Robbo to play in the forward line. If Pettifer was either quick, or mercurial, I would see no problem with taking him, but he is just another lead out small forward. If we are looking for small forwards, there are infinitely better options available, who would bring some x-factor to the forward line as well.

    That's fair enough. Like I said, if Higgins was available, he'd be a much better option.

    I went to about 8 Richmond games last year and I was impressed with Pettifer. He always bobbed up for 2 or 3 goals, and is an excellent lead. But I've heard on countless occassions that he's a tool.

    Ferg and pick 3 for Pettifer and pick 4.

    He isn't a poor player by any means, although he seems to need some cover and has real trouble being the first choice small forward.

    But when even Tiger fans think that he is a complete [censored] personally, it probably isn't a great sign :rolleyes: !!!

    Pick 3 currently belongs to Carlton and is bound for WCE via the Judd deal. Your scenario doesn't look too good ATM.

    Never let the truth stop the beginning of a good draft rumour. ;)

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
