If he does intend to re-sign, why up to six months? Just like saying to my gal, "I'll marry you but I'll let you know for sure in six months."

You are all more than welcome to convince yourselves that this is BS....... be my guest.

My advice...... don't bother, take a deep breath a relax. There is no need to stress about this one any more.

Obviously I can't say anything more.

I've always thought he'd stay, because it just makes sense.  However, your assertion that it 'could' take 6 months is the comment that doesn't make sense.  There's no reason that I can fathom why it would take that long.

The club has publicly stated over time that it will not over-pay a select few to the detriment of list balance. If Jesse does re-sign then it will be at a price that we can afford and not the la-la-land money some in the media have thrown around. He is a cornerstone signing that can only do good things for this club. Now to Tom Mac who I rate as almost as important.

He said 'could take up to 6 months', which does seem a little strange but contract negotiations can take time.

Call me a pessimist but I won't rest easy until he has put pen to paper.

I tend to agree. I mean no doubt there will be back and forth but he has the whip hand.

In any case lets' hope it happens. It would be huge for the club. This is a big statement but i don't think there has been a more important signing for the dees. Ever.

Jesse said he wanted to wait for the CBA the details of which are known by Clubs and will be announced in next month. He, his manager and the club have always said he will stay.  So for Jesse to 'confirm' that and restart negotiations now is no surprise and anyone could make that educated guess. 

And, contract negotiations started 12 months ago so both parties have known the ambit claims for a year now and it doesn't take 6 months to work out the finer details.  It sounds like someone (your source, not you) is reading the tea leaves around the CBA announcement timing and hedging their bets by saying it will take 6 months.  A claim by your source that an announcement by EOS would be a lot more convincing! 

Edit:  Just read other posts.  'Abe' has asked about deal length and terms etc so some info on this would add some credibility that the source isn't just taking an 'educated' guess.

I'm so used to negativity at Melbourne I had accepted he was leaving and actually convinced myself he wasn't that special and we would be better off with a trade than keeping him. But now.........

I pretty much read this as - he intends to re-sign so now come the finer points of the  negotiations and there are lots of i's to be dotted and t's to be crossed so it may take some time. News gets out pretty fast and I think it is about managing expectations.

If that was the case the Club would announce it, not leak it via a 3rd party and by an anonymous source on a fan forum! 

Why would the Club want to restart speculation and have negotiations take place under the media spotlight. 

Because that is what GNF has now done.  Its like throwing fuel on a fire!!

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
