Why delist Tynan??? 2nd year player, still 19. Makes no sense to get rid of him. He has been in good form in VFL until he went off injured last week, was on track for a game. So young, got potential a

It's revisionist crap to say Scully left because of the culture. It was always about the money.

worst. decision maker. ever

Tough, quick, unheralded, nice size and should get better. Still young with time to improve in certain areas and I hope he does well for us. IMO I think he's a kid with a bit of a future and I certainly haven't put the pencil through him.

Glad to see Jetta given another chance.

If he can be injury free I think he will be an asset this season.

You've got Gillies in there twice. Next year's delistings look interesting, but I guess that's a discussion for another time.

If we get locked out of next year's draft Nasher it may not be a problem!

So a nett of 12 changes on PL and 2 changes on RL

14 new faces in total

that's big and so far it looks quite positive and balanced

kudos to all those who engineered this - end result better than i anticipated (says he going early)

My take on the contract situation for next year

Sign Them ASAP

Watts, Sylvia (UFA),Grimes, Tynan

Sign them before end of season

Taggert, Gawn, Fitzpatrick, Nicholson, Evans

Wait and see

Davey (RFA), MacDonald, Sellar, Jetta, Davis, Couch ®, Magner ®, Rodan, Gillies

Agree with you on all but Sylvia.

If you are a UFA at the MFC there is almost no reason to sign up before the end of the year.

The world is your oyster

Wait and see what happens.

I will be surprised if any Free agent signs back on during their final year

I love Toumpas signing for an extra year. As supporters, we can't know what's going on behind the scenes at a club, but when a guy heralded as one of the best young players of his draft has seen three months of operations and is willing to commit himself, I'd say that's an excellent sign that the culture which saw Tom Scully getting out as fast as he could has been pretty severely curtailed by our new coaching and management team.

I'm a happy camper.

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.

    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
