My favourite player already, alongside Tyson. But there a few guys that could join that list. Brayshaw, Hogan, Petracca. Clarry has the highest ceiling out of our mids though and I'd argue out of our players.

big call ! higher ceiling than Hogan and Petracca ?I hope the two I've mentioned become superstars and Clarry goes even past them.

Choo Choo looks the goods, but he needs to trust his ability to kick and not always handball.

He seems to get clear then handball to someone else when I think a kick would be better.

They are attacking handballs

I think petracca  should always play half forward, Oliver is a pure midfielder

Clarry doesn't remind me of anyone, which is a good thing, as he will create his own legacy.

He has a fair bit of Cripps about him. More skilful though.

He's a hugely exciting prospect. Once he develops a tank, look out.

Prior to Goodwin, the last Ginger coach we had was Norm Smith.

It's a bit like saying though who's the better player out of Franklin or Mitchell. Very hard to say. Both superstars.

Do you consider Neeld strawberry blonde?

A blond -- that could explain quite a lot ?

Unfortunate placement, Bingers! Placed straight after a comment about Simon Goodwin could lead someone to believe that you see Michael Voss (as coach) in Simon Goodwin rather than Michael Voss (as player) in Oliver. At least, I hope you were talking about Michael Voss the player...

For the purposes of certainty (putting on my lawyer hat), Oliver (the player) reminds me of Voss (the player).

I loved the old Choo Choo bars !!!! They were great ! As were liquorice blocks ( 4 for a penny), teeth, liquorice all sorts, cobbers, not to mention fags. Which dummy thought naming them " fads " was a good idea ??? Probably the same idiot that changed the names Dick to Rick and Fanny to Franny in the Magic Faraway stories. Oops I seem to have strayed from the topic somewhat. 

I believe young Clayton will turn out to be quite a decent player.

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.

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
