I really like this signing. Coming from a professional sporting background is a huge advantage in terms of commitment and preparation. Should be able to take to the AFL system like a duck to water. If he has the goods he could be big max's replacement.

That Collingwood would look to replace a young tall with a young tall. Plenty of chatter from Collingwood fans about it. Not sure you will get anything concrete at this stage of the year.

We have some very good players of our own that are without a contract next season. How about we worry about signing them before raping and pillaging the rest of the league. Lot's of mail on Weeds to Collingwood given they might be losing Moore.

Gus is a smart footballer. I hope he can stay injury free and play some more footy like today. Great game today, reminded everyone why he was a top 3 pick!!

Great debut! He smacks of Macaulay Culkin though. I thought the game against Essendon was another home alone movie...

Suprise selection for me, but I like it. We need to uncover some more players, so worth a shot. Balic is a bit stiff not to be given a crack but he won't be too far off.

He played alright against the tigers. Keep playing him.

He is out of contract at seasons end and probably is a key signature going forward. He has some haters, but I think most can agree he is best 22 and he is an important signature going forward.

Not even round 1 and Vanders is still wearing the indefinite tag. It feels like he has been injured for more time than he has been fit. Its going to be a long road back, feel for the bloke. McKenna seems to be in the same boat, always under the injury cloud. I do wonder if either will make it on the park this season.

Would love trac to signs on long term for two reasons. 1. He is a gun and will be an elite talent. 2. We get to rub it into saints supporters his whole career because they passed on him!!

If port implodes and misses finals, and we get in and at least win week one, we could be a preferred landing spot for wines. I think if it's money he wants he will go to norf..

This goes off topic a bit, but I wouldn't mind seeing retro heroes being put on tee-shirt lines. The gawn and Jones nerd tees were a hot commodity last season. Would love a flower, stynes, barassi and Lyon tee to be created.

A stack of fringe players playing for a new contract. Spots will be hard to come by, we should see some of these fringe players go up a gear. Interesting times ahead.

Would rather trade two first rounders for lever than draft another jimmy Toumpas or Lucas Cook. we paid overs, but we got the player we needed. lets move on from this and call it a win-win.

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.

It's a midfielders medal, so based in current projections it would be Oliver.

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.
