It's no wonder Diamond Joe vanished.....

Not convinced by the Kelly rumours. I think we are heavily invested in Lever and we don't have the money for both. Kelly is a gun, but his price tag will be a bridge too far.

He is staying at the saints. I wonder if they will still have the rumoured 1.2m for Kelly after inking Billings.

I am happy for him. He was always the whipping boy with Essendon fans. I'm glad he hasn't carried same tag here at Melbourne. His contributions this season have been valuable.

Gun gun gun. My only question is: Where is that 800k worth of cap space coming from??

He was good last night. A bit of a silent pest. Reads the play well and has good skills in close. His kicking still needs some work but he is playing well and deserves some love.

The AFL experts stroke themselves over Joel Selwood. No doubt Selwood is tough and a strong leader, but Viney is next level tough. I have never seen anything like his performance last night. It is the best midfield performance I have ever seen.

Interesting. From memory one of his sons is about 14 and is a prospect (Kobe?), certainly helps father son nominations if he is down here with dad. Loved the Wiz, wish he had never left.

Here is the thing with Oscar: He just turned 21, was pick 53 in the draft and only has 26 games to his name. He is young, was never expected to set the world on fire and has limited experience at the top level. I think so far he has panned out just fine.

Wow. That's actually phenomenal! I hope he is brought up in all Australian talk leading in to voting.

We are getting slaughtered down back. May has to be a top priority going into trade week.

Has played 4 games and has probably been in the top 3 players on the ground in 3 of them! Been an absolute steal.

Norf will offer him stupid dollars. We are back of the field in this race. He would be a great get.

If you google "Cale Morton" the third auto response is "running away".....

I think he still holds the AFL record for running away from a fight in an AFL game....

Pull the trade Lever!

Paddy could end up being an All Australian forward, but Petracca is next level. He has the same mystique about him that O'meara had before he had all of those injuries. Paddy will be a very good player, Petracca could be something very special.

Collingwood for me. We have 5 of our 12 flags against that mob. Not only that, but that rivalry was once the white v blue collar clubs back in the day. Amazing to think we are the battlers these days!

GWS will become a destination club for players wanting a flag. Last time I checked Kelly hadn't won a flag...he isn't heading anywhere anytime soon. Usual off season bull dust journalism

The Wiz is one of my all time favourites growing up. To think my boy could grow up watching his boy in red and blue is special.

Just a side note, I expect Hibberd is around the 300-400k mark, so they might require another move also to free up space)

The longer the Jaeger deal drags on the cheaper Hibberd becomes. If GC and the hawks can't broker a deal, Jaeger goes into the PSD with a 700k price tag on his head. If Essendon want him, they need to have 700k in cap space. If the Jaeger negotiations break down Essendon will need to dump Hibberd to free up 700k for Jaeger. If they carry Hibberd they are less likely to be able to sign Jaeger. The dees are playing this very well.

Keilty was impressive for Casey in the games I got to see. At 21 yo he is the perfect rookie list candidate. It's a shame to hear we may have already passed on taking him.

I haven't seen enough of him to be swayed either way. Averaging 16 disposals a game this year, and is only 20 years of age. If the price is right then why not.

If he wants a flag he should join GWS. They have the assets to deal and Freo are already into a few of their players.
