Mr Controversial! Hope 2 see you at Buller this week GNF ;) Just saw the forecast :) Look out for the mad man watching the game from the bar with The Dees beenie on

Not booked in sorry Yeats. Received a speeding fine driving back from Buller last Sunday morning to go to the game, now almost out of points. There were three car loads of Melbourne Supporters in convoy, but I was the unlucky one to get nabed. Dam it!

You couldn't really argue with that if it happened. He deserves it after trading away all those draft picks.

The funny thing about this thread is that 3 times this season I have made posts of yet to be announced facts of interest. On each occasion the moderator has deleted my comments as they know they are fact not rumour!! Go figure.

I have been in the same boat.

Few of my mates who aren't Melbourne supporters have been saying they reckon Cam Bruce is heading to the Gold Coast

Well that is compelling proof! Bruce is gone. I reckon if Bailey knew, Bruce would be out of the side. He sure shot a rocket up C Johnson's backside.

News just in!

Brother told me that on Mark Fine's SEN show that is currently on, Mark said that "4 players from Hawthorn, Essendon, Melbourne and Collingwood" have signed with the Gold Coast Suns".

SEN's definition of "big names" is often quite skewed.

My money would be on Bate, as his demise has been rather rapid (e.g.- told-the-club-he-was-going-and-hasn't-been-seen-since type of demise).

Honestly can't see why they would want Bruce at his age, and with Bock already signing on, I don't think they'd be chasing Warnock now.

Just glad all of our key players are safe. Thank goodness we got Frawley on a 4 year deal. I can see bloody Kevin Sheedy all over him like a dirty rash next season, if he was uncontracted.

Kevin Sheedy will be after a lot of MFC players come next season.

My money is on Bate as well. I can see him going over - he's young so we'd get a solid draft pick depending on how much GC pay him.

Bater has been of good value though... let's not undermine that. It's all well and good to say, "Ahh well he was too hot and cold anyway. No loss." But he's a solid, strong and powerful unit with a BOOMING 70m kick!! High-ish draft pick and a good contributor to our club.

If he goes... good luck to the guy.

Could be Bate, but there was a rumour a few days back having Jones as the man departing MFC for the sunny GC.

Bate would be a big loss...he's still in the best 22, and I've no doubt he would force his way back in next year.

I guess we'll all just have to wait and see who it is!!

You know what'd be really funny after all this hype??? It ends up being Rhys Healey and they get him for free.

I'll take a punt:

Hawks - Campbell Brown

Dons - Brent Stanton

Dees - Cameron Bruce

Pies - Paul Medhurst

We should make guessing the above players a contest or something. Winner gets bragging rights for being awesome/lucky/a footyhead

I also reckon they'll get David Armitage, Jarrod Harbrow, Michael Rischitell and Jared Brennan.

I don't think Bruce and Medhurst are good options. They need experience, but they also want guys who will be there when they are pushing for finals. Those two are a little close to the end of their careers for me. THat being said, both would be good choices for a ready-made leadership group, so who knows?

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
