Get some practice in DE because it's nearly grand final week and we all know your explosive posting on GF day!

Thankyou for the reminder MS. No chance of that that this year due to a GF party. Hopefully it is a good game?

Star?

A good serviceable player I would have thought. I don't have sleepless nights thinking about losing Brock.

Certainly done better than Gysberts though.

I was trying to be ironic. Didn't really work tho!

Need an irony emoticon...

Just announced on SEN that Sam Blease has asked to be traded and MFC has agreed.

Not earth shattering, but official nonetheless.

No further details

to be honest we would be lucky to get much. he's shown next to nothing for quite a while.

all he has shown is that he fancys his run too much.

This has resulted in him demonstrating selfish play that often results in poor decisions.

Tapscott for Robinson?

Don't really like the bloke, but he's a tough bugger that doesn't mind the physical stuff.

I'm not sure mate, I think Blease was rumoured to be heading there too, not sure what both could net us, someone apparently interested in Strauss too but I can't remember who it was

Tapscott has requested a trade to Carlton

No doubt after he was told we wouldn't offer him a contract.

I for one will be disappointed to lose Blease. I still think he can make it.

From the same draft as Watts. 7th year in 2014.

Watts has done so much more than Blease and yet some have more patience for Blease.

What a list they are building down at Princes Park...

Mick has totally lost the plot

Feel sad to see Blease go because at his best he is an exciting talent. Must admit his last 2 games for us were stinkers and he was given adequate time and opportunity. Can't see him making it elsewhere, just doesn't have the work effort required to run both ways.

Posted

Lol I forgot he worked there.

He was the one who originally drafted Tapscott and Blease right?

BP: Trust me mick, these guys can play, mfc don't know what they're doing

MM: " senile rambling "

BP: I think we should trade pick 6 for Luke tapscott and Bryce Gibbs for Sam Blease

MM: " throws something at Mark Stevens"

BP: we should use our second rounder to pick up Cale " cement truck" Morton

MM: zzzzzzzz

Carlton is a well run and respected organisation.

Just hope we get more for him than we did for Morton/Bennell/Martin

Doubt it. It's a mutual decision to trade him which means we are probably happy with anything at all. A late pick to use in another deal or a slight pick upgrade. Bennell turned things around because he was young enough to. Martin because he's a ruckman. Anything Blease does in his future should be seen as good luck to him not reflecting on MFC.

personally id just be happy with the sal cap space and a box of twisties.

We arent really losing much. Not a slight upon the kid but 6 years for what exactly ?

We got more for Morton than we deserved. Pick 88 for memory

Broken leg in the school quadrangle. 2 years on the sidelines and behind the 8 ball for the rest of his career.

What a waste.

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.

    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
