5 minutes prior to that ...

PB's wife: you knew I was looking forward to that car! You've embarrassed me. You go right back and apologise and buy it!!! Or no nookie for the next ...... forever!!!!!!

For a recently newlywed like Bell the ‘no nookie’ approach may have currency. However after several years of marriage it may become an empty threat.

I think so too. Still learning who is what here.

Won't happen again with that muppet.

If I am the ‘muppet’ then you have misread @Deestroy All’s diagnosis...

Posters can whisper sweet nothings in our ear straight from their [censored] but Land has a long memory and it isn’t kind to those who do so. #rpfcrememberstrolls

Are we all sure we have all the information?

I don't think so.

That's the only other thing I'm sure of.  We don't.

Here's the bit that gets me:

Freo (apparently) had told Jesse's management that they would do the deal, involving their pick 6.  They then proceed to trade that out so that deal cannot get done.  WTF?

 

This is the bit that gets me angry.

Sell the trade they have for multiple larger numbers and then say the deal is off. That is Primary School etiquette

From this post I can only assume you are unaware of this poster’s history. I will suggest that you treat the info he shares with some circumspection and leave it at that.

But hang on mate. Dangerfield is coming isn't he?

I'm feeling content - no lose situation.

Trade with Fremantle will happen at a reasonable price and we'll on trade for May.

Trade doesn't happen and an exciting experiment with Jesse at CHB in 2019.

The dogs may bark but the caravan rolls along.

And what did you say.......?

... that tackler is a Nigerian prince whose father the king has been imprisoned by military plotters and his $100m fortune has been frozen by banks. And PB has been specially selected to gain 10% of that for a small favour ...

I just told him how amazing Jesse is and that he should just do the deal and leave the thinking to those better qualified for it.

Bell's comment about due diligence didn't refer to checking out the player.  I supposed  Bell was just  trying to use big 'business-speak' words instead of simply saying that they won't continue negotiating because MFC is asking far too much.    That seemed to fit the context in his press release and the point made by SFebes.   

Signs of a person who is not very confident in the decisions and actions that he might take or gets involved in, yet still insists on punching above his weight.

Projection level  -  Infinity

Spot on.

It's funny isn't it and a pretty good microcosm of the fetid, stagnant pool of rumour, half truths and calculated lies that passes for reporting and 'news'  this time of year.

I mean the opinion of a middle age bloke who had an affair with a teen, is called toot root by everyone because of his out of control drug habit, has been barred as a player agent and is in total disgrace gets oxygen. Crazy.

Maybe Jesse was not very impressed by what he saw at Freo

one wouldn't need to be einstein

i can't fathom why jesse would want to go to freo of all places even before this fiasco

Hogan may not like what he saw at Freo , however it would be easy money for him to make !!!! . Reminds me of the old days at Demonland , when we got smashed by 186 pts players laughed about it, one player got dropped. If that wasn't easy money for playing for a club , I don't know what is .

This article provides nothing. No direct quote or even a vague reference to an ‘unnamed source’. Just a hunch on the part of the journo. Yet based on this most of you are piling back on believing Jesse will be a Docker by Wednesday. 

I’m telling you right now. They’ve gone cold on him. Bell isn’t bluffing, they’re no longer interested.

We’re stuck with Hogan for 12 months and this will all happen again next year.

My interpretation was a more basic version of the same: dumb footballer trying to use corporate [censored] speak and mincing his words.

and why trade the pick that was already agreed upon ?  as from what been said a deal was done for 6 and a second round pick  in principal then freo  traded pick 6 !

And if you are wrong you will have Peter Bell as your avatar for a year.

Being stuck with Cale Morton was a lot worse. No doubt about it

    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

    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
