Talks between Jed Anderson and the Kangaroos on a new deal are โa fair way apartโ, reports SENโs Sam Edmund.
Anderson finished third in the clubโs best and fairest count after averaging 21 disposals, five tackles, four clearances and four inside 50s per game in a career-best season in 2020.
North announced 11 delistings at season's end, however, there has never been any fear of the Kangaroosโ commitment in keeping Anderson on their list.
โThere have been a few whispers around about Jed Anderson, because the contractโs been in place for him to sign at North Melbourne and he hasnโt signed it,โ Edmund toldย Whateley.
โIโm told (on Tuesday) that the two parties are a fair way apart when it comes to a new deal.
โTheyโre working through it, is the official description of it, but thereโs plenty of work to do at the moment.
โWill another club swoop? Absolutely they could.โ
Rumours swirled that Carlton could be looking to add Anderson their midfield stocks, however, Fox Sportsย reports that he is not on their radar.
