Someone puts him in the top 10. I don’t mind that because there are now about 20 to 25 players in this draft who have been picked by some pundit as a likely top 10. Tomorrow's Heroes: Ex-cricketer ready to bowl over clubs

The comment addresses the club being accused of tanking. It doesn't say that the club actually did tank and that's still an open subject.

Oh, ok then. Close thread.

He’s not that funny, surely?

I like the cut of his jib.

With seven vacancies on Melbourne’s main list at this point in time, I think the club must surely be thinking in terms of selecting one or two delisted free agents. Is Tom Sheridan worth looking at? Delisted Freo onballer hopes for a lifeline

Problem being that Buku Khamis is a NGA tied to the Western Bulldogs who are likely to match any bid from 3rd Round plus which is probably where he’ll go. Bailey Williams, on the other hand, would be worth looking at with Pick 23 or 28.

We now have a couple of picks in the 20s, of which one selection might be used on Noah Gown.

Is there much trading activity done by the clubs over the weekend? Everything seems to have gone very quiet.

GCS are better placed than we were because the AFL is desperate for the franchise up there to succeed. I don’t think it’s beyond the bounds of credibility to think that the AFL would be pulling all of the necessary levers to get Hogan there (special ambassador payment outside the salary cap). It all depends on Hogan’s mindset and his wish to go home but I wouldn’t rule it out.

Because the second language of the AFL is telling lies.

Only kidding?

Peter Bell has told the media in Perth this evening that he would be prepared to do a trade for Bennell if the club in question was prepared to part with a top ten pick.

That offer was a ludicrous one to make in light of the new rules that in my opinion will make key forwards more valuable to their teams. I think the club should start a new discussion with Hogan and his management concerning him playing with the club in 2019 and working towards negotiating a longer term agreement as the year unfolds.

Looking forward to his return. Some of those games he played before he was injured were sublime.

I had a look at the delisted players to date and there aren’t many there who I would go for. Not all clubs have announced their delistings but unless some more names crop up, I wouldn’t be salivating over the prospects available ATM.

Reports suggest he was waiting for the B & F before announcing his decision. If that’s right and he didn’t announce that he was staying last night, then expect the news by Monday that he’s selected North Melbourne.

We should also have a crack at getting Andrew Brayshaw across and giving them adjoining lockers.

I think that’s the tack we might want to take.

The article says that his father passed away recently and he’s been running the business from a distance. Moving to NSW might help.

SM, KK or both?

At 175cm he towers over Spargo & JKH. Has been compared to Dayne Zorko.

Carlton has delisted Aaron Mullett and Cameron O’Shea along with rookies Jesse Glass-McCasker and Matthew Shaw.
