"I'm sure Tex Walker's eager to try and knock me around the ear but it's all a bit of fun. In the end I am mates with a lot of these guys so if I wasn't going to get any stick I’d be pretty disappointed," he said.

Why would lever have a grudge he is laughing all the way to the bank, TeX is a sniper anyway, he had no aggression on he field, except when someone's next to a goal post with their back to him.

One wonders if Tex has the longevity in his intellectual arsenal to sustain nasty thoughts about Lever evading and evacuating the flock - hell, footballers should be free to trade like any other business, forming alliances and commitments 'across a sector or many sectors'. If the Crows' (and Tex's mentality) had infringed in this regard - it would have been 'a restriction in trade' situation and thus, highly illegal. Once Lever had mentioned such an interest in applying his skills to the Dees, there was no way, in law, that Tex's Black Feather friends could interfere.

Things have changed.

REPORT: Gold Coast

Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
