I’ve got more confidence of Gaff being a Demon next year than the Dees of playing finals this year. (And I have zero inside info on either scenario, well besides being let down by the club for the last 12 years).

I’m not sure why posters feel the need to attempt to big note themselves by claiming inside information on player movements. Common sense would tell me it’s only August therefore there’s no way Gaff would have 100% committed to any club at this time. 

Posting in all capitals and using excessive exclamation marks doesn’t make it anymore credible either.

Homework tonight is to figure out how we can get Gaff.

Have it on my desk tomorrow morning.

Maybe make some tough decisions.  Jones and Lewis to coaching roles.  Frees up salary cap.  Offer $1.2m a season if that is needed.

It’s a start. The rest can take a leaf out of your book.

Lewis is still contracted for next year isn't he? That means he will still be in the cap.

Yeah, in Parliament.  Rl. 

Or heads of business.    Maybe the heads of the Church?

All the kings horses, and all the kings men ?

 

Or could that possibly be, the collective minds of the common folk.?

Not if he retires before SC census date this year. Example: Cyril at Hawks.

Can free up cap space. Lewis as an assistant coach in 2019 puts his wage under the FD, I believe.

Don't quote me on that though.

Norf supporters on BF think they are getting Gaff this year and Josh Kelly next year.

You’d have to be seriously desperate for cash to go to North over Melbourne or even Essendon. If Gaff picks North good luck to him. I don’t want anyone at our club who cares only about money. Winning and success has to be the main motivation if you come to Melbourne, as we have lots of great players we need to fit into the cap going forward.

Can see it now.

"Who has the best midfield?" threads, with norf supporters talking up some nobody side into second, so they can then type a novel about why they are number 1

 

"Cunners, Zeibs and Benny J cutting the packs open, and feeding the ball to Gaffer and Joshy K. Wow, we will be invincible!"

 

Norf suporters are my favorites.

Don’t think so.  Cyril retired and the articles were all about how much salary cap freed up.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. 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
