I’m fine him for now. He’s been seeing the academy guys more than anyone. Draft day should perfect for himNot sold on Kall Burns taking over as List Manager. Time will tell I guess.
Nah Kall is great. Multiple clubs have had a crack at luring him in the last 24 months, he will do very well in the job.Not sold on Kall Burns taking over as List Manager. Time will tell I guess.
Former Essendon hard nut Ben Hobbs could find a new home at Gold Coast next season as the Suns weigh up a move for the delisted midfielder.
Hobbs, 22, was cut by the Bombers after 18 games in red and black this season and is desperate for a second chance at the top level.
The Herald Sun can reveal Gold Coast is considering Hobbs in either the draft or more likely the supplemental selection period after a training stint next month.
But there are no guarantees as the Suns are also looking at former Cat Ted Clohesy.
The tough nut played 12 games in three years at the Cats and is also on the hunt for a new opportunity.
Hobbs could help provide some midfield depth at the Suns after 65 matches in four seasons at Essendon, but is aware his AFL future remains a line ball call for 2026.
The Horsham product averaged 15 touches and 1.7 clearances a game this year playing largely forward.
The Sun lost midfielders Sam Flanders and Brayden Fiorinias well as forwards Malcolm Rosas and Ben AinsworthPLAYERCARDSTART8Brayden Fiorini

But the club is on the lookout for another midfielder, pending on which players it takes in the draft including prized academy talents Zeke Uwland and Dylan Patterson.
The Suns are expected to make a genuine tilt for the premiership next season and threw a career lifeline to former Bulldogs’ forward Jamarra Ugle-Hagan after failing to play a game at the kennel in 2025 amid some personal issues.
