Can I ask why not?
It's not as though it's anything like a career ending injury.
If he wanted home we'd be very foolish not to go hard IMO.
He's not playing for us this year
Maybe this makes him cheaper. He's a gun. Right age for us too. Need to get him.

Gees looks like Rowan Marshall might be missing as well, sent off for pelvic scans.
Dougal Howard off for shoulder scans.

Still a bit to go before the season but it looks like one of those "no excuses, just get it done" kinda days.

Cost for 1
Plus I think we are making headway with our midfield - I would concentrate on ruck and KPP

I agree on the ruck but if Mattaes wanted home I'd be surprised if we didn't go all in.
Are you talking KPP through trade or draft?

Whatever is available - I think St Kilda dig in if he wants to return here - and thats for either team in the state
It then escalates the capital for drafting or trading for need
I really hope Mattaes is on the list of players we are giving our strongest possible pitch to this year. Definitely making headway with our midfield but it is still our weakest line by a country mile. Ruck I agree with you. But mids and, much further back, another small forward are surely the next biggest issue.

We just send them on camps.
I don't quite have the sense of humor this week to speculate how bad some of our pitches have been in the past.... but our recent form is pretty good. Whatever we told Dawson, Rankine, ANB, Cumming and Peatling seems to have been convincing.

Life’s good at the top
Interesting to see how he fits in, or whether Fagan and Co have managed to create a Hawthorn type scenario where everyone stays for a bigger chance at success.

Oscar Allen would be a seriously good pick up for them
Fits the one gap in their structure

No good for the lad. I thought this might have been his break out year.
Femur stress fracture...never heard of that. Any medical people care to comment on the rarity of this.
And I'll go now and amend my fantasy team...

The Cats always think big.
Geelong has thrown its hat in the ring for Gold Coast superstar Matt Rowell but a move home to Victoria is far from a fait accompli for the former No. 1 overall pick.
In November this masthead reported Rowell had put contract talks with the Suns on-hold amid intense Victorian interest while assessing the club’s improvement following yet another failed finals push in 2024.

Dr. Google
doesn't seem to think it's a big deal, just rest and recuperation which probably means he won't be able to play until the back half of the season, unlikely to be at full fitnes this season but.

It's going to worth the lols when Hardwick starts getting asked questions at pressers though
The AFL need to step in an make it harder for players to get back to their home state. A 10 team in Melbourne location makes it too easy for those located outside of Victoria to run back to Victoria. Where as everyone else has limited options. Its an unfair playing field. I would love to see a quota placed on Victorian teams, for example only 1 interstate recruits from any non vic clubs best 10 players or top 20 draft pick every 3 years. Which would mirror interstate levels of recruitment from Victoria and other clubs.
