I don’t doubt that at all. It's his body that worries me the most.

I'll need to double check but I'm pretty sure he is?? I like Gunston and think it would be a screwed recruit. But right now personally, if I'm choosing between an up and coming star of the future in Cerra or a guy who's got a bung back at 29 years of age then I know who I'm selecting.

You're on to something here. I like it.

Not sure he's a free swing Jaded, he's actually still contracted to the Hawks for 2022.

Speaking on AFL Tonight, foxfooty.com.au senior reporter Tom Morris said the Dees remained outsiders despite their persistence. “Melbourne is broadly keen on Adam Cerra and has spoken to him in recent days, but nobody really knows how they’d be able to get a deal done at this point, given their lack of draft picks, given the fact that they want Jack Gunston and given their salary cap is probably quite tight,” he explained. “That is why Carlton is still the strong favourite for Cerra, but as we know it is silly season, anything can happen and I wouldn’t absolutely rule Melbourne out just yet.”

Don't do it Cerra.........

Interesting on Port here.

Surely we aren't going through all this effort to have a meeting with him and not think we can pull something out of the hat.

From Sam McClure article. While Cerra is said to be extremely impressed with Melbourne’s presentation, he is also excited at the proposition of playing alongside Carlton duo Patrick Cripps and Sam Walsh.

It's certainly looking increasingly unlikely that we'll have the draft capital to satisfy Fremantle unfortunately.

Fair from Isaac Smith.

Has to be a norm smith medallist that presents it.

No Thursday.

My god this would be a HUGE get for the footy club. Still remember Darren Bewick his Eastern Rangers coach saying he could potentially be in the same calibre as Christian Petracca who he also coached. If anyone watched Cerra this year would know he makes our midfield go up a whole new level next year.

Hibberd doesn't have to go with him up field. We've shown time and time again this year that we are happy for our forwards to drift higher up the field because this leaves the extra defender in Lever in May to sit back.

Body made out of wet paper unfortunately. Sums up his career.

To be honest, I'd actually back Hibberd to play on Cameron. Cameron isn't a pack marking beast, but more so a roaming 3rd tall. Hibberd would easily match him for body strength and also at ground level and on the lead. He's giving up 10cm in height but rarely do opposition forwards are left one on one in our defensive structure I'd back Hibberd in.

Interesting comments from Simon Garlick of Freo. Coincidence of time? Speaking on 6PR’s Sportsday WA, Garlick said the club hadn’t had “detailed discussion” around Cerra’s movements and potential suitors of late, but expected talks to ramp up in the coming weeks. “It’s still really early in that piece, but that’ll start to heat up I’d suggest in the next two to three weeks in particular.”

Means Lever has to potentially play on a tall now.

Yes I remember this also. Happened late in the game.

Not a fan of it at all.

Thanks Chook, I think he's doing one this Friday at 6pm also.
