STAR CAPTAIN\u2019S SHOCK REVEAL AFTER ESSENDON APPOINTS MCVEIGH<\/p>\n
GWS star Toby Greene has revealed he will meet with newly appointed Essendon coach Mark McVeigh in the near future, as well as with Geelong as he weighs up his future. <\/p>\n
Speaking on his weekly podcast with Rolln Media, the Giants captain revealed he would imminently meet with the Cats, who he has long been linked to, as well as the Dons\u2019 new head coach.<\/p>\n
The 32-year-old remains out of contract at the beginning of the Giants\u2019 off-season, and while he genuinely remains torn on whether he stays at his club of 15 years, an opening has emerged that the red and black could take advantage of.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ll start thinking about it (my future) properly over the next couple of weeks, and that\u2019s what I said to the Giants yesterday (Tuesday) … I\u2019ll work out family stuff and what we want to do,\u201d Greene said on his podcast.<\/p>\n
\u201cI thought about it last week for the first time really; I sort of put it to the back of my mind the whole season. As much as people might find that hard to believe, that\u2019s the truth.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf I was definitely going, I\u2019d say that now and be upfront to the Giants and make it easy for them … I\u2019ll meet with probably Geelong this weekend, and \u2018Spike\u2019 (McVeigh) has reached out since he got the job. He asked if I could catch up, and I said I\u2019d catch up with them … we\u2019ll see how that goes.\u201d<\/p>\n
While the Cats are currently reported to have a three-year deal on the table, McVeigh previously coached Greene during his eight seasons as a coach in western Sydney.<\/p>\n

GIANTS\u2019 PLAY FOR STAR RUCK AFTER BIG MAN\u2019S EXIT<\/p>\n
GWS is reportedly exploring the idea of a trade for Western Bulldogs ruckman Tim English, less than 24 hours after the departure of tall Kieren Briggs.<\/p>\n
The Herald Sun\u2019s Ed Bourke revealed on Wednesday afternoon<\/a> that are seeking Giants will \u201cgauge\u201d English\u2019s interest in a move to New South Wales, despite being contracted to Whitten Oval until the end of 2029.<\/p>\n The report comes after his wife, professional netballer Rudi Ellis, departed the Melbourne Vixens last week to join the NSW Swifts last Saturday.<\/p>\n Any move would massively open the door for St Kilda ruck Rowan Marshall to seek a fresh start at the Bulldogs, with Luke Beveridge\u2019s club reported by Foxfooty.com.au\u2019s Will Faulkner<\/a> to be a live chance of acquiring the Saint.<\/p>\n It comes after Foxfooty.com.au<\/a> first revealed back in May<\/a> that Marshall is expected to request a trade away from Moorabbin.<\/p>\n Veteran Giant Jesse Hogan was delisted on Tuesday evening after six years at the Giants, while Briggs is bound for Richmond\u2019s Punt Road on a four-year deal as an unrestricted free agent. <\/p>\n Additionally, Jake Stringer has indicated his desire to return home to Victoria to leave another void that needs filling in Adam Kingsley\u2019s forward line.<\/p>\n GWS is looking for top-end talent to add to its list after confirming the departures of Briggs and mercurial forwards Jesse Hogan and Jake Stringer.<\/p>\n McRae: Daicos heading towards captaincy | 05:23<\/p>\n SUNS \u2018FRONT OF THE PACK\u2019 FOR HOGAN, HAVE INTEREST IN HAWKS<\/p>\n Jesse Hogan looks on track to continue his AFL career at a fourth club, in a fourth state, with Gold Coast at the \u201cfront of the pack\u201d to land the 2024 Coleman Medallist.<\/p>\n But he\u2019s not the only player the Suns hold interest in, as they weigh up whether to accept Pick 7 as compensation for Ben King\u2019s looming exit to Hawthorn.<\/p>\n Hogan was delisted by the Giants on Tuesday and has met with Collingwood and Carlton, but the Suns lead the race for his services according to AFL Media.<\/p>\n \u201cHe\u2019s met with four clubs, three of which are Collingwood, Gold Coast and Carlton. The Blues do have interest in him; they\u2019re taking a look but there are key forwards ahead of him in their list of priorities,\u201d Cal Twomey said on Gettable.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m not sure the Pies go there at this point. The Suns have maintained interest in him for some time and are looking for a mature key forward, and he basically comes for free now.<\/p>\n \u201cI think he might also meet another couple of clubs in the process, too.\u201d<\/p>\n Meanwhile the Suns must still decide whether to force a trade for King\u2019s expected move to the Hawks and, potentially, interest in two young guns could become involved.<\/p>\n As it stands however their interest in young talls Aidan Schubert (pick 23 in 2025) and Noah Mraz (pick 35 in 2024) would be \u201cseparate\u201d.<\/p>\n \u201cThey have interest in Aidan Schubert and Noah Mraz … I\u2019m not saying they\u2019re going to take up that interest, or that Hawthorn would let them, only that Gold Coast has interest,\u201d Twomey said.<\/p>\n \u201cIf they got one of those players on board they could do a trade after doing the compensation (for King), that\u2019d be separate.\u201d<\/p>\n It would seem unlikely the Hawks would want to give up either Schubert or \u2018Honeybuns\u2019 given the impressive starts to their young careers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Star captain Toby Greene has revealed he will meet with a second rival club, as he weighs up…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":869289,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[43,44,85,41,39,42,40],"class_list":["post-869288","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-headlines","tag-headlines","tag-news","tag-sports","tag-top-news","tag-top-stories","tag-topnews","tag-topstories"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/869288","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=869288"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/869288\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/869289"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=869288"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=869288"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=869288"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
