Geelong has reportedly entered the race to sign North Melbourne midfielder Daniel Wells.
Wells, who is out of contract, is yet to commit to the Roos for 2017, as he weighs up his future, amid speculation he will seek a fresh start as the club looks to rebuild.
Collingwood is understood to have made an offer to Wells, while the Cats have also thrown their hat in the ring.
3AW's Sam McClure reports that Wells has already made up his mind to leave the Kangaroos, with the Pies and Cats the front runners.
"My understanding is that he's basically decided to leave North Melbourne and has a choice between Collingwood and Geelong," McClure said.
Wells, who has battled several injuries throughout his career, played 19 games and averaged 23.1 disposals in 2016.
If Wells goes, which will be the case. North should go for Barlow. Still very handy and a short term fix for the midfield. If Brad Scott goes, I would be chasing Brett Rattern.
why the hell would anyone want to coach that rabble? particularly when you are working at a strong melbourne club…Brisbane are destined to be bottom 4 next 5-8 years mate….might as well go be a monk for 8 years…
yeah the same guy that said Carlton wouldnt lose a game you spud
Totally agree…that is a club with no hope now…players dont want to be there….poor Dayne Beams will never play finals again…
