Sheedy would rather him go to the draft than give him to us. And there will be 18 other teams in the competition with this same thought in mind. Whilst the bitter man is at the helm we won't be able to get any of their players.

So let him.

Of course we should find out his long term future. After what GW$ did to the MFC all is fair game.

The MFC must be relentless in the pursuit of its own gains. It is what other clubs do.

To say "we do not have the balls" is an attitude we need to shed.

If anything the MFC "balls" need to grow...

Get in his manager's ear now.

5 mil for 5 years. Starting 2014.

The ultimate payback.

IMO RR 2013 is about getting good experienced players into our team.

2014 in our current predictment is a lifetime away.

Lets go after the getables for 2013.

If he is any good and we may not know till 2014.

The que will stretch to about 17 chances.

Unfortunately he isn't eligible for free agency for a long time. So we will have to pay through the nose to get him.

I don't really see it as payback at all. GWS didn't have to give up anything to poach Scully from us. We will have to give up a couple of first round draft picks minimum to get Patton.

While I don't really think Cloke would be worth the coin, it would be awesome knowing that we got him without giving up any players or draft picks. Hence why free agency is so interesting.

You can already see how good Patton is going to be. So too Cameron. If anyone would rather Watts than Cameron they've been wasting their time following footy.

OK, wrong thread.

Love your combative, positive, go-getting attitude as usual Sloonie.

Silly dream. He won't leave, will see out his next contract, and at that stage a move for Patton is possible.

I say try:

Aaron edwards - foil for clarke, bandaid

Sidebottom, montagna, goddard - $$$ may get them.

Beams at less then those mentioned above

Myles sewell, shane valenti, and yes even Brock Mclean.

Fringe players from the hawks, carlton, WCE, essendon, geelomg

Only spend big bucks to get a walk up star, and I think we could recycle a few more stop gaps like seller.

Clarke so far value for coin.

So 2 proven facts from this year are we (1) need quality ready to go midfielders and (2) we could do with a foild up foward for clarke like a A. Edwards or crameri or even a mcglynn type.

Fingers croseed there is a few goodbyes, more quality kids, And a few more bandaides so kids can develop properly.

Jonno has told you this definitively has he? Wow, thanks for the inside goss.

Jetstar domestic flight and a silvertop taxi to AAMI Park.

That will be the attitude going forward. GW$ will not be able to hold all these guns.

Players will move once FA kicks in. Including our players.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

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
