CJ article in the hun

On the subject of this two year contract offer, I heard Liam Paickering who I think is CJ's manager on radio and I'm sure he said that Melbourne never made a 2 year contract offer. It was only for one year.

So did we or didn't we?

If we did, was this communicated to the client or was already too late?

Hopefully not. I for one would have been disappointed with an unconditional 2 year offer. He's had a long time and delivered little.

HE'S GONE, GET OVER IT, HE WAS CRAP ANYWAY!

    I think it's pretty obvious that CJ's point was that he was made to work exceptionally hard for his spot when others (under both Bailey and Daniher's coaching) were given a seemingly free ride, regardless of how bad their form was.

    Aside from that, I think a few people are underestimating the impact a close mate/teammate being belittled and disrespected in such an open manner can have on the rest of the team. Chris Johnson isn't what was holding this footy club back, and making him somewhat of a scapegoat isn't going to solve anything.

    He wasn't offered more than a one year deal, wasn't given a clear picture of his future at the club until right before trade week, wasn't given a game despite clearly deserving it, then finally told that the Match Committee weren't sold on him. How can you blame him for going to a place he was actually wanted?

    I hope he succeeds at Carlton (even if I hope the club falls over and dies in the arse).

    belittled? didnt previous article say that Bailey called out to him" go and tell your teammates you dont want to play with them" then as cj walked over Sylvia told him to f off. time to grow some cj, stand up , hurt for the jumper

    I despise carlton so no amount of cash would ever entice me to put on one of thier filthy jumpers. C.J could not cement a spot in the bottom side. What does that tell us all...He may not be that good or his attitude is all wrong. Maybe some of both.

    The club is bigger than one man so let us think to the future and may we thrash carlton and thier dirty VISY Money.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
