'Bit of work to do' as Roos push Demons on Duursma deal

Forward is seeking a trade to Melbourne but as a former No.4 pick, North is looking for a good return

NORTH Melbourne and Melbourne still have a bit to work through when it comes to how – and if – young forward Zane Duursma will make his way to the Demons this trade period.

The exciting Duursma has requested a trade to Melbourne, but how a deal will be struck remains to be seen.

North Melbourne list manager Brady Rawlings still holds out hope that Duursma could remain at Arden Street, despite his trade request.

"It depends on what Melbourne wants to put forward to us. We'd obviously love to keep Zane and he has so much potential, we've seen it in parts over the last three years. As we progress our footy club, we really see him playing a major part for us, we value him really highly," Rawlings told AFL.com.au on Monday.

AFL trade period 2026: Updates from day two of dealing

Richmond have secured ex-Fremantle winger Nathan O’Driscoll in a low-cost move to bolster Adem Yze’s midfield division.

The Tigers handed over pick 61 for O’Driscoll in the only completed deal on the second day of the trade period on Tuesday.

However, Hawthorn did lodge paperwork for sharpshooter Ben King to join as a free agent from Gold Coast, while Zane Duursma doubled down on his request to move to Melbourne, and will not consider staying with the Kangaroos.

O’Driscoll, who played a career-most 17 matches this season, informed the Dockers in the past week that he would explore his opportunities elsewhere after rejecting a three-year offer.

The AFL has confirmed the umpiring panel for Saturday’s grand final between the Dockers and Lions.

Hayden Meyer headlines the selection, with Brett Rosebury, Brendan Hosking and Nick Foot named as the four field umpires.

North GM: "Second-time coaches don't work"

NORTH Melbourne has given its coaching candidates the strongest possible hint that it wants a first-time senior coach.

John Longmire’s decision this week to rule himself out of the job – following Adam Simpson’s same decision last week – comes with North favouring a new name.

North’s selection committee, fronted by CEO Jennifer Watt and GM of football Todd Viney, have not shut anyone out of the process.

But as they continue to assess applicants, they have also made it clear that premiership coaches like Simpson and Longmire would be behind before they started.

It’s understood Viney told Simpson that “second-time coaches don’t work” in their preliminary catch-up, while a manager of one potential applicant was told North “didn’t want another Malcolm Blight”.

‘No way’: Roos great’s blunt Clarko contract warning as concerns over six young guns laid bare

Dual premiership Kangaroo David King believes North Melbourne can’t justify extending coach Alastair Clarkson’s contract, questioning the club’s conservative game style and player development, despite an improved 2026 season.

Clarkson, who’s guided the Roos to an 8-8 record so far this year and put them in wildcard contention, is out of contract at the Kangaroos at the end of next season.

“As far I’m concerned, Clarko has an 18-month contract to run,” Hood said on 3AW Football.

AS IT eyes a top-10 finish this season, North Melbourne gets a chance to claim its eighth win of the season when it meets Essendon on Sunday.

North Melbourne (7-7) has won seven matches for the first time since 2019 and climbed back into the top 10 while still having plenty of room for improvement after a pair of less-than-convincing victories.

The Roos did what they needed to do in a low-scoring affair with the Tigers and can now pile more misery on the Bombers after snapping a 12-game losing streak against their rivals earlier this year.

Essendon (1-13) has been left searching for positives to carry it through to the end of the year off the back of a nine-game losing streak before heading into a bye.

Each year, players from our men's and women's visit the Tiwi Islands for a cultural immersion experience. Our most recent group saw Isaac Kako, Jayden Nguyen and VFLW player Tayla Hart-Aluni spend the week there with a focus on cultural connection, community engagement and education. They were lucky enough to watch the Tiwi Bombers take the field in a local match too. Here's what they got up to over the five days:

North Melbourne has shifted back into the top 10, trumping Essendon 10.19 (79) to 9.11 (65) on Sunday afternoon at Docklands to claim its third-straight win.

It marks the first time in six years that the Roos have won three or more consecutive games, with the result lifting them to ninth on the ladder.

Round 16 comes to a conclusion with the Kangaroos and Bombers at Docklands, followed by the Suns heading west to take on ladder-leaders Fremantle.

Essendon will be trying to win just its second match of the season, while the Kangaroos can break back into the top 10 with a victory.

Gold Coast has been in a form slump since its Darwin trip, but the Suns will hope to repeat their stunning historic finals win over the Dockers last year.

It's been a bit of ping-pong footy in the opening minute, but the Kangaroos steadied when they got hold of it in the middle.

Six-year first awaits Roos in shock wildcard charge as boosted Bombers eye upset — LIVE AFL

North Melbourne’s charge towards a shock wildcard appearance continues on Sunday afternoon at Marvel Stadium, as it looks to knock over an Essendon outfit that welcomes back several key cogs.

The Kangaroos (7-7, 90.7%) will be without star ruck Tristan Xerri as he recovers from jaw surgery, with fringe ruck Callum Coleman-Jones recalled to shoulder the load in his absence.

Roos look to bounce back in Suns clash. LIVE from 1.15pm AEST

GEELONG has made a late change for its huge clash against Sydney at GMHBA Stadium.

Tanner Bruhn has been replaced in the Cats' 23 by Jake Kolodjashnij.

Geelong (7-3) made a statement as it put the side that thumped it in the Grand Final last year to the sword for a dominant victory over Brisbane on the reigning premiers' home turf.

The Cats now have an opportunity to show that they are again among the leading contenders as they host the Swans at their own fortress just as cracks have started to appear for the ladder leaders.

Sydney (9-1) pulled off a heist against Collingwood as it gave up a headstart and only took command of the game when its injury-plagued opponents were undersized and undermanned.

AFL Saturday LIVE: Suns charging towards eye-catching win; Countdown on for Pendlebury’s 433rd match

There’s the siren for three-quarter-time at Marvel Stadium. The four points are still up for grabs. An impressive quarter by North, who refused to throw in the towel.

Big, big goal. The match is racing to the 3QT break and Cooper Trembath has stepped up with a big goal, cutting the margin to 20 points. With this sort of points difference at the final break, it will be very much “game on” in a massive final stanza at Marvel Stadium.

Three goals for the North Melbourne big man. The quarter has ticked over into time-on. But with the margin hovering around the four-goal mark, it’s very much Advantage Gold Coast. The Kangas desperately need to string some goals together.

Why Clarko was unwilling to 'jump at shadows' with selection

Unwilling to "jump at shadows" and swing the axe after a humiliating loss to Adelaide, coach Alastair Clarkson has challenged North Melbourne to respond against Gold Coast

Unwilling to "jump at shadows" and swing the axe after a humiliating loss to Adelaide, coach Alastair Clarkson has challenged North Melbourne to respond against Gold Coast.

Clarkson would have been justified in making a selection statement after the Kangaroos were blitzed by the Crows, trailing by as much as 88 points before losing by 68 last Saturday.

But only Tom Blamires was dropped for Riley Hardeman, with North (4-6) otherwise sticking fat for Saturday's game at Marvel Stadium.
