I really do like the way Bailey takes the conversation so that rather than feeding the journos by offering up speculation, he deals with the mundane aspects regarding the number of turtles and fish caught :-)

What does turtle taste like anyway?

    I fail to see how these comments relate to the subject at hand.

    Really disappointing post for mine.

    I feel the club have handled the situations with great compassion, class and dignity.

    Too bad some supporters do not exhibit the same qualities.

    agree

    old dee that is fairly ordinary posting

    OD has been a bit depressed lately...

    And from that particluar post - I fail to see how us saying "Wonna we are going to cut you and move on" is showing the kind of ruthlessness that builds clubs and wins flags.

    He has lost his dad and is from the other end of this great land.

    Have a heart and realise that every situation is different - hard and fast rules just leave you bruised and battered.

    The club knows that there's no point trying to force him to stay or come back early, while he's in a stressed state and still grieving. When he's feeling strong again he'll return better than ever. I think the MFC should be congratulated for the way they've handled this situation, and hopefully he'll come back soon.

    Dean has a great sense of humour, he is one of us now, red & blue thru & thru.

    PS Best of luck ozzy.

    Coach Dean Bailey, who worked closely with Wonaeamirri and even invited him to live at his family home in an attempt to help him through his problems, said he didn't know exactly when he would return but was buoyed by his improved mindset.

    "He caught two turtles and I think it was about 12 or 13 fish yesterday," he said on Friday, when asked for an update on the 31-game player's progress.

    "He's having a good time. We'll see him back soon.

    "I can't give you a definite date. All I know he said the two turtles were good and the 12 fish he was a bit disappointed in.

    "His whole aspect to go back was to reconnect with his culture and we've given him the time to do it.

    "He's going to be an important player for us going forward."

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
