Port Adelaide great Kane Cornes has suggested three potential landing spots for Demons ruckman Braydon Preuss.
With Max Gawn and Luke Jackson both sidelined, Preuss battled nobly against one of the league's best in Brodie Grundy in Saturday's dominant win, collecting 12 touches and winning 24 hit-outs.
Since moving to the Demons from North Melbourne, Preuss has struggled to find game time at AFL level, with Cornes suggesting three clubs should look into luring the big man away from Melbourne.
โI was looking at Braydon Preuss play on the weekend and I was thinking this guy is too good not to be playing and his future is not at Melbourne,โ he told SENโs Whateley.
โIt was questionable why they gave him a four-year deal in the first place behind Max Gawn, but then they go and draft Luke Jackson whoโs playing ahead of him and was pick three.
โSo, clearly the writing is on the wall and thereโs a club out there that needs him.
โWe just spoke about Adelaide, they could do with a ruckman because theyโre getting beaten by Josh Dunkley in the ruck.
โLook at Geelong, they had a crack at Todd Goldstein, though itโs probably not pressing for Geelong with the way that theyโre going, but is there interest there?
โThen thereโs Essendon โ is Preuss a viable option for Essendon? Tom Bellchambers is banged up so what does their ruck situation look like?
โPreuss has got a lot of footy left in him heโs played seven games in the last two seasons and heโs too good to be sitting in the twos behind an 18-year-old and Max Gawn.
โI think heโll find a new home and he should in this trade period.โ
Preuss has played just 16 games since being drafted in 2016 and has become a viable backup ruckman for both Melbourne and the Kangaroos.
