direction...leadership influence outcome

people not see the flow ?

You dont wait, you make

its everything about leadership

Your making a fool of yourself like I just said he's had 7 coaches in 8 yrs.

I agree mjt. BB is being unrealistic.

But do you always have to add things like 'making a fool of yourself'. It is possible to disagree with someone without abuse.

Some don't have it, BB.

Can't be conjured overnight.

thats at least a valid counterpoint

unlike others

but then if he doesnt have it...how is he in the leadership group

If he makes claims he ought to back them up.

Seems to me he wants it both ways.

I make more of it that he makes a stance now, seems rather theatrical and contrived.

Hes had 7 coaches in 8 years, he's probably had enough.

Granted. But not a coach of Roos' calibre.

Very idealistic, but there is no one man team in the AFL.

He is but one man, and he has toiled manfully for many years.

I don't blame him for waiting.

But I also think you are misrepresenting the situation as if he has been unreasonable.

I'd appreciate you naming one single player who has made a different decision at such a stage.

Its only lighthearted sue don't be so precious .

How about you put

<lighthearted> ....... </lighthearted>

around your remarks to make it clear to us precious types when you are being lighthearted and when you are being abusive.

Well, negotiations are precarious….he needs some encouragement? Mentoring? Perhaps, deep down, this is the promotion he has always craved, but couldn't verbalise?

I still think he's an exceptional player and must not be lost...

I agree wholeheartedly with the notion of mentoring.

Dont get me wrong....beyond my bemusement and scathing indifference is a will that he stays. But he has to want to stay and if not then what ever is

Who ever is in his his ear is doing no favours....to whatever is nibbling away at his concioussness and evoking ( for mine ) an unrealistic understanding of what awaits and indeed what are the choice.

Om dead curious as to why even broach this subject now....seems agenda driven

You have complained in the past at others, invariably Machsy, being abusive toward you - and here you are being indignant.

If you don't like this community, mjt, there is no law or academic requirement I have heard of that keeps a person here.

You seem to think we're a tribe.

We're not.

how is this even a story?

No players sign contracts this early before they are out of contract, unless they are hacks who are lucky to be offered one

I think there's an undercurrent of loyalty that you're alluding to here. The ol' playing for the jumper...

That's now a changing mindset, brought about by several 'I am loyal and love the Club' players jumping ship for coin, motivation, greater prizes, or whatever.

Chip's manager is in his ear….make no mistake about that.

Then best you leave , I wasn't replying to sue or you so mind your own business , who do you think you are telling people to leave the forum, the only person that wasn't insulted was BB 59 and he was the one I was replying to.

rpfc likes to think he is the thought police around here. Be PC or just learn to deal with the constant ankle biting.

Not wrong .
 

I'm with beelzebub on this. You can hold back until you see the direction (Watts, Frawley) or you can get in and set the direction (Grimes, Jones, Garland).

its a bit under said isnt it.

Im just curious as to what anyone..ANYONE expects of the future..or of their influence towards it

Again, why is this on the deck now ?? Other clubs 's players get through this but some of ours seem to use it as an excuse for other reasons ( my thinking )

The Dees would surely be stepping out on the best path they have since my living memory.... yet some dont buy in ?? yeah right esp as an elected leader. yeah..shred me by all means . Im not convinced he's dead set

  • 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.
