**Geelong’s colours debut James Worpel for the first time** Part of the young core group poised to advance the club, he is experiencing an excellent season.
Earlier this week (Cleary expressed that he believed Merrett would remain with the Bombers; however), it now seems that Essendon has become more lenient.
- I’m unsure how you can provide it at no cost, given that the Google Cloud Speech Recognition API likely incurs significant expenses, but I won’t delve into that.
- Since joining during the 2023 off-season , Sweet has participated in 49 matches for the Power,, having taken over from the now-retired Ivan Soldo as the primary ruckman for the club.
- Twomey then reported on AFL Media on Wednesday there was industry belief the Magpies “could be prepared to get their offer to three years” to secure Neale.

**Talk of a Carlton move** is **shut down** by **Rowbottom’s manager** Overlooked AFL star makes surprise return to competitive football Butters has had a lucrative contract offer on the table for much of 2025 to re-sign long, long term with the Power. Then there’s Carlton, where Butters’ only football boss to this point of his career — Chris Davies — now calls home.
Given the Power’s strong current salary cap position — they will be able to match any offer.
Gryan Miers made a triumphant cricket news Australia return to AFL with a match winning performance against the Saints on Thursday night to help Geelong return to the winner’s list The run home to the AFL finals in 2026 remains must-watch viewing, with positions one, slightly, through to 10 there for the taking with six home-and-away rounds remaining. If an agreement is reached between the Swans and Pies (Jack Buller), the fringe forward from Sydney, would be a valuable addition; however, the situation beyond that is quite unclear. The club was once thought to be pursuing his teammate Ned Reeves — but it now appears that the 210cm ruck is likely to remain with his current team. However, like Flanders, the 25-year-old is still under contract, meaning a favorable deal must be negotiated.
Furthermore (reports indicate that Jack Bowes), the Geelong flanker who has fallen out of favor, has attracted the interest of the Bombers as they aim to bring in experienced players to enhance their young talent. Regan mentioned the advancement of Jedd Busslinger and Buku Khamis (although Khamis is reportedly once again attracting Carlton’s attention), and this time, he qualifies as an unrestricted free agent. Merrett’s agent gives update on Hawks trade While Hawthorn is reportedly viewed as the favourite to land Humphrey should the top-10 pick request a trade at season’s end, Cleary said the Demons shouldn’t be ruled out. And in other potential forward acquisitions, Gold Coast’s Malcolm Rosas is reportedly set to choose between Sydney and Richmond as his new home next year. Veterans Jake Lloyd and Dane Rampe and mid-season draftee Jack Buller look the likeliest of the other out-of-contract players to earn a new deal, but Buller has reportedly attracted interest from Collingwood, which is after some key-position depth.
Essendon’s Jayden Laverde (Sydney’s Joel Hamling), Hawthorn’s Sam Frost and delisted Richmond swingman Jacob Koschitzke are names reportedly on GWS’ whiteboard to potentially bring into the fold.
He has attracted interest from more clubs but will reportedly choose between the Swans and Tigers, per the Herald Sun’s Jon Ralph. **Restricted Mode’s turn-off issues** can be **troubleshot** If I’m Carlton, I’m asking for two firsts and a good young player in return as a BASELINE. What would Sydney be able to offer Carlton to entice them to trade? Where the Dogs go from there remains to be seen. Discussions with the Pies could be a little bit testy from early indications.
Draper is from South Australia and would be the perfect long-term ruck for the Crows in a period they’re primed to contend for flags; despite coach Matthew Nicks never playing two genuine rucks together under his tenure.
Just a fortnight remains in the 2025 AFL season, but for those clubs not playing in September, their full attention turns to the October player movement period. While it’s believed that both Melbourne juggernauts sit behind the Western Bulldogs and Geelong in the Butters sweepstakes, the Pies’ inclusion of Daicos speaks to the legitimacy of their pursuit. – Talks between the Giants and in-form forward Jake Stringer “are about to ramp up” (according to Ralph), with club footy boss Jason McCartney to soon return from leave. – Eddie McGuire reported on Footy Classified that he’d spoken to Brisbane sources, who’d suggested they “expect him, Lachie Neale, to go to Collingwood” next year.
– Ralph also reported on Midweek tackle that Bulldogs veteran Adam Treloar had “already told people around him that he’s going to go and play for Noble Park — where it all began, next year”.
