nah but it would be a Goodwin initiative, which the rest will probably follow as to not undermine the future boss

Did we offer both picks? If so, I'm glad it didn't pan out. I wouldn't even trade Brayshaw on his own for Danger.

Yeah we did..Very happy the trade didn't go through. Can't wait to see Petracca out there alongside Brayshaw.

It is around Schwab levels, I won't deny this, but I'm in good company here.

No coach would want to be surrounded by sycophants and yes-men, nor would an assistant last if this were his M.O.

Isn't it? Because at that time Melbourne were offering picks 2 and 3 lol.. It's not about what Adelaide want to settle for, Dangerfield has to agree to be traded to the club and unfortunately the way it's going it's Geelong or nothing. We are offering Adelaide pick 6 this year and 1st round next year, Adelaide are all over that but Dangerfield isn't accepting a trade to Melbourne.

It was an off the cuff comment. Pick 1 in any draft is better than a compo pick around the 13/14 mark.

SS is a scrubber.

a very good cultured, & DNA scrubber... & he would walk into our current team.

It wont just be Goodwin it will be a group decision. Do you think Goodwin could just overrule the opinion of the rest of the footy staff?

& it won't be just a milkman, it'll be a baker & a candlestick maker, were after. the milkman will be just a small part of our bigger ambitions.

For whatever it's worth, mentioned on BF by a GWS supporter that Tom Bugg is a lock to come to us.

I call BS on this. There's a GWS supporter? :P

Made me giggle... thought id post the appreciation

No a graders as we'd hope for (hopefully yet) but handy additions in their own right... Well time will tell... Surely an upgrade on a few we have now though

Richmond are in an interesting space for us. They think they're close to being a contender and will therefore sacrifice high picks for ready made players that fill their perceived weaknesses.

So maybe there's an opportunity for us with Tyson to Tigers...

They have picks 12, 31, 49... and players? what would be acceptable for Dom?

Considering our needs at the moment and the deficiencies that still plague the midfield, Dom is one of our almost untouchable players. He will still be a gun - the guy is only 21.

Ideally, yes. But I'm suspicious that Carlton's most recently departed coach might have operated that way.

Really? Brad Green doesn't strike me as that kind of fellow.

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
