    Dees super-sub headed north?

    Melbourne’s super-sub Toby Bedford is in the Giants’ sights as a potential replacement for Bobby Hill.

    With Hill all but certain to request a trade to Collingwood – and forward-half pressure being a significant problem area this year – GWS has turned its attention to Bedford.

    He was the medical substitute in each of the first six rounds and it took fellow forwards Kozzie Pickett and Alex Neal-Bullen entering Covid protocols for him to play a full game in round 7.

    The 22-year-old served as the sub on 10 occasions in total but was dropped for a third time ahead of round 20 and hasn’t returned after not capitalising on a month-long stint in the senior side.

    Bedford has speed to burn, genuine goal sense and a defensive appetite the Giants would benefit from, alongside superstar Toby Greene and Brent Daniels, who missed the entire season with foot and hamstring setbacks.

    There appears no obvious path to regular AFL games for him at the Demons, so the GWS approach should pique his interest – but the Giants aren’t the only club to inquire about him.

    Melbourne not only has Pickett, Neal-Bullen and Charlie Spargo as small forward options but also likes Kade Chandler despite him, too, being starved of senior opportunities.
