I’m quite certain Tom Morris was doing the club podcast until he was booted. He’s from Fox Footy, dresses like a trust fund baby and doesn’t shave.

Tom Browne is the lump of wood from Channel 7 who has the presentation warmth of Professor Snape. Not sure if Browne supports Melbourne.

Tom Morris it was - http://www.melbournefc.com.au/video/2018-03-15/inside-melbourne-episode-1

Upon further Googling, Morris ran St Kilda's social channels in 2015. He now works for Croc Media and Fox Footy.

There's a propensity on here (and elsewhere) to denigrate every journo who utters something that supporters don't like.

It's very childish.

And even the most clueless journo knows more than just about every individual who posts here.

 Don't know sue but there is something missing in the story.

The MFC seems too methodical and calm from day 1. Almost like they started the trade for reason  of their own.

But surely the bold bit above is entirely consistent with what I postulated. I don't see how your next sentence follows from that.   The story I postulated seems to be complete and self-consistent to me.  So I won't defer to your nose smelling something fishy for the moment.   Let's see what happens.....

Just shows how far Browne has been shut out by demon insiders.  He now relies on other media outlets or guesses.

Is a demon supporter and early this year he was doing the club podcast, then kept leaking stuff which is pretty low.  Got the boot from the podcast.

Clearly is now a persona non gratia! 

Wasn’t that Tom Morris?

Hi end Cheeseboard perfect for both hard and soft cheeses!

I camembert the suspense much longer.

Actually no it's fine. I'm fine

If he stays, I hope he's emental-ly prepared and emotionally invested in the club.

If he goes, then may it be for a feta trade price than Freo think is appropriate.

Tom Browne saying Hogan will leave this year or next. Not sure I want him in the team when he has one leg back in WA.

MELBOURNE want pick 5 and a future first round pick from FREO

How does that equate to wanting the highest trade deal ever?

As for 5  and  a second rounder, such a result would create a clear credibility issue somewhere, particularly as we gave 2 first rounders for Lever.

Mahoney would have to walk the plank on that one.

Don't forget that Hogan is a restricted free agent next year (surely hes in top 25% of earners at club). So if freo and the media think we will get him for nothing next year they are wrong.

agreed. and the big journo's, even Sam Mclure, have gained high powered positions by being good at their jobs.

I agree with the gist of your post. I was probably over the top. Definitely, journos would have better sources than myself.

That said, there have been plenty of journalists dressing their opinions as fact, particularly during trade period. Particularly on trade radio there are presenters who show stunning ignorance when it comes to footballers, their attributes and trade value.

if we let hogan go for a first and 2nd rounder then i think it takes away all of Mahoneys good work in the past. he has a history of over spending.

The feeling this thread is giving me is like the effects of a real strong mull cookie that you want it to stop but it just keeps getting worse.

What has Tom Browne’s record been like in the past? 

Has he got a legitimate source or are these just his opinions dressed as fact?

He wrote a book about "school days" i think

They have been following the kid around like a bad smell since he was 17. Of course they still want him & there excitement levels were getting out of control when there was actually a possibility to get him this year. 

Like we did with Lever?

if you listened today, Barrett refused to give any air to the "failed medical rumour", or other rumours he had not heard from a reputable source. The only time they state their opinions in when they are guessing what pick a player is worth, and that were fans get angry.. but they are more than entitled to discuss what a player may be worth

Is that a contradiction or am I just fatigued with this whole thread ?

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
