He could also jag lotto and tour with Van Halen as their new lead singer.

He is quite musical and pretty lucky to be where he is so it's not out of the realms. :lol:

We have offered him 1 year only on minimum chips. If he wasn’t Zac’s brother he probably would have been delisted years ago


Jackson Merrett has signed on for 2018 with the Bombers.

Long and McKernan also with 1 year deals. Surprised any of them were kept on the list

I think the club have seen enough in Long to hope he develops, but next year will be his last chance. Happy to sign Jackson to keep his brother happy too. McKernan, well, good for him.

Delisted Bomber Alex Morgan has joined the Kangaroos. The 21-year-old played mostly in defence as a Bomber, but was unable to break into the AFL side after being the No.29 pick in the 2015 NAB AFL Draft.

Not me, if I could’ve chosen the first to be delisted, he was it.
DO NOT LET HIM KICK IN AFTER A BEHIND - Carlton, you’ve been warned...

Haha, if we had a VFL Reserves side I dare say Morgan would of playing there. People were stagggered at the time when we took him and it’s been a massive bust

Wonder how much of the "war chest" he's getting? Might be on 800k just to get some coin off the books. :D
