HUN now reporting this morning that Port are interested in Leon Davis (again) if the "price is right" - they need a "name" so IMO they'll go for Leon

Would think it is a given McCarthy will wind up at the Tiges  ;D
Here's the article online:

Port Adelaide keen on Leon Davis

    by: Jon Ralph
    From: Herald Sun
    November 28, 2011


RICHMOND will be praying Port Adelaide agrees to financial terms with Leon Davis in coming weeks, clearing the path for the Tigers to swoop on ex-Pie John McCarthy.

A handful of experienced players are likely to get to their preferred homes in December 13's pre-season draft, with Davis, McCarthy and former Saints defender Zac Dawson heading the list.

Davis looked no chance to get to Port Adelaide, but the Power passed on its last national draft pick and has confirmed it wants Davis at the right price.

It has also spoken to McCarthy, who is training at Richmond, and former Adelaide and Carlton midfielder Darren Pfeiffer.

Should Port Adelaide take Davis, it would mean McCarthy would get through to Richmond's selection.

Melbourne said it would not take a pre-season pick, which means Richmond's pick No.7 now becomes the sixth selection.

GWS has the first pick in the pre-season and rookie drafts, but said yesterday it was yet to decide if it would take a pre-season pick.

Port Adelaide football manager Peter Rohde said in Adelaide this weekend Davis was a wanted player.

"Leon Davis is on the agenda," he said.

"There's been a lot of talk about Davis but, in our contact with him and his management, the financial (demands) were well and truly outside of our capabilities."

Former St Kilda defender Dawson will begin training with Fremantle tomorrow, four weeks after the Herald Sun revealed he was leaving the Saints.

The Dockers seem likely to take former Collingwood forward Brad Dick in the rookie draft, which immediately follows the pre-season draft.

Austin Wonaeamirri, Nathan Ablett and Brendan Fevola are available in the pre-season draft, but seem to have little interest.

Im not convinced we will get Mccarthy seeing PA are all over him like a cheap suit and tbh im not at all bothered, Maric is the kid we want, has a bag full of tricks just waiting to be unleashed :shh

Is that the same bag of tricks that saw him playing at Casey?
