I'll go one better

From the Melbourne Football Club FB Page in the final team announcement comments:

See? It's all a storm in a teacup. It was even reported on SEN.

Why was he listed as omitted then? They would have known that 'omitting' him would lead to articles being written and further scrutiny. Sorry. Don't buy it. He was dropped.

He may have been Picket and yet, if I'm honest, I could imagine him costing a game like today through dumb decisions.

Mate, that is one terrible source, believe me on this.

I wouldn't know that guy from a block of Gorgonzola, but my point was that at least I provided a source so that people could make some sort of assessment of the post, rather than "some girl on a supporter page said..." which gives us absolutely nothing to judge it by. I could equally have provided quotes saying he has been kicked out of the club, walked out on the club or was simply dropped for poor form.

According to bigfooty, Watts is off to Richmond

Bigfooty? FMD Moneider96, there are blokes on that still not happy that Fevola isn't getting a game

My initial impression was that it is very unlikely that PJ and Rawlings would be telecasting their views on current players and other team's players

If he was reported injured then why was he warming up with the team pre game.. Funny huh?

But believe what you want. Just posting what I saw on FB

Why is there a need to say I know him or have met him and he's a great bloke?

We are discussing his ability as a footballer.

And I have addressed that aspect!

At the risk of 'Rebuttal'

Dazzle what's your spin on this??

As was i and dud u see the surname of the poster dazzles?

Sure did mate. If she says that her father is a friend with Rawlings then I see why he couldn't tell a mate whats going on?

And I have addressed that aspect!

Dazzle what's your spin on this??

Needs a fresh start. Either way wherever he goes he will continue to coast and cruise through games. He will be another Colin Sylvia/Travis Johnstone where we won't be crying over letting him go.

Exactly, Its irrelevant that hes a good bloke.

As I said above, I wouldn't know this guy from a block of cheese, but at least I provided a source.

Yeah and as I've explained the guy is a known facebook troll. So your source has 0 credibility.

You were better off not quoting your source on this occasion.

Its on a private/closed group facebook page so not sure it would be cool to name the source.

The validity of his statement isn't the point. The point is that you are able to judge the quote's worth because I have given you a source. The fact that you are telling me the guy's opinion is worthless validates my point that if you are going to throw out quotes from anywhere, you need to provide a citation so that others can judge the validity of that quote, as you have done with this one.

And some who still debate Watts vs Nic Nat I bet.

That, my friend, is the never ending thread

Trade bate?

Bate was traded (or delisted) many years ago.

Unrelaible source (bloke in pub) but he was spouting after the game today that Howe, Watts and future draft pick beening offered to Gold Coast for Benell. Appartently Gold Coast interested, Watts not keen on Gold Coast though.

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    The Dees were blown out of the water early by the Fremantle Dockers before fighting back and going down by 19 points in their final practice match of the preseason before Round 1. Remember it's only a practice match if you lose.

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
