Wow I’m a big fan of Andrew McGrath. It would be excellent to see at Richmond but I think probably too expensive and most probably unrealistic.

He just signed for two more years at the Essendrug.

Essendon is interested in Jordan De Goey not Carlton - Sam Edmund on SEN.

De Goey wants to play more midfield time and be like Dusty - Tom Browne on 7news


Bomber Orazio Fantasia is likely to end up at Adelaide - Sam Edmund on SEN.

De Goey's dad is doing his contract

Wants another $800k + per season

Jordon isn't worth $800k a year

Barely worth $500k a season

Too inconsistent

correct, what has he actually done?

wants to be like dusty   :lol :lol I see he even cut his hair like dusty recently too.

dusty has pretty much dominated and been in our best since the first few years he was drafted.

This guy no one can actually tell me what he has done so far. Glimpses sure much like stringer, but what else?

Well he did take over from Dusty as Puma's leading man.  :rollin

DeGoeys 2018 campaign was nothing short of amazing. But beyond that?!?!?!? Martin lives up to the hype. He was giving don’t argues in his first season and was igniting the midfield from 2014. 2016 I feel is when he truly hit elite status and has held that mantle ever since.

Until he went for the selfish glory play instead of staying on McGovern with two minutes to go and ended up costing his side the flag ... :shh

People were actually comparing him to dusty in the past.

Degoey has only finished top 10 in the pies bnf once and even then he placed eighth.

Dusty has never finished outside the top 10......never not even in his debut season. That includes 2 1st place finishes and 5 top 3 finishes.

Adam Treloar 'not interested' in move to the Suns.

“There’s still been speculation about ... Zach Merrett. But right now, everyone is saying around Zach Merrett that he will stay at Essendon. (But) who knows what can happen in three or four weeks.

The West Australian reported on Monday that Lewis Jetta was “about a 50-50 chance to be retained” for next season by West Coast.

Collingwood will keep the faith with Jaidyn Stephenson, who’ll see out the final year of his contract with the club, according to foxfooty.com.au senior reporter Tom Morris.

Dusty has never finished outside the top 10......never not even in his debut season. That includes 2 1st place finishes and 5 top 3 finishes.

That’s the best stat of all.
Dusty’s value to the team is directly proportionate to his b&f finishes...
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

Jack Higgins
“I think they may have been a few calls made (by opposition clubs) on this,” SEN’s Sam Edmund reported. “Given his status (not being in the side), definitely calls have been made.” While the Tigers will be keen to hold onto Higgins, their may not be enough room for the goal-sneak.

Brad Crouch (Adelaide)
“Geelong is in the box here,” Edmund said. “They’ve been in touch with him for some time, Richmond has (a little bit of interest), but I don’t think Essendon are in the hunt either. I believe the hold up with this one is relating to the clubs remaining in the finals race.”

Quinton Narkle
“We hear that he wants to move up and live around the Melbourne metropolitan area. We know he’s good friends with Shai Bolton – and I’m not saying he’s going to Richmond – but he’s every chance that he should’ve played more football this year. It will be interesting to see whether he finds a new home next year.”
