Quite seriously I don’t know why anyone in the middle of their career would go to Geelong. They are at the edge of a cliff. I get being close to 30 and wanting a quick shot at success. But Gus would be waaaay better off going to Carlton or Freo and pushing for success for a long time to come. 
 

But he would be best off staying in Melbourne where he bloody well belongs.

I think Gus was keen to play more midfield minutes and assumed that had to be somewhere else - but then saw what Jack Viney delivered on Thursday night and thought ‘Actually, I don’t want to play against that. Sign me up!’

He is also one head clash away from retirement. Chances of said head knock dramatically increase in the middle given the way he plays. I think he is enjoying his role at half back / wing. He is a genuine midfield utility and can play across 3-4 different positions.

There is a rumour about to be released that Gus will announce his Re-signing with the MFC on the Gus and Gawny podcast either this week, next week or the week after. 
l’ve got no further info on Jacko, other than to restate that OD has said he is definitely going - so put your money on Jacko to stay.

LOL!  Yes, facing Viney, Oliver and Petracca in their prime is the stuff of nightmares so Gus should stay (which I think he will).

It would be SO Gus to announce he's staying on the podcast.

No news on this week’s podcast unfortunately on the contract, Sticks Brayshaw did get a hole in one at Royal Melbourne last week though.

Gus has previously said he'd break the news on the podcast. 

I'm sure he wouldn't if he left, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's announced he's re-signed on the pod

Which hole, which course 🏌️♂️

Whenever I watch Gus n Gawny I'm convinced that Gus will stay. He's so emotionally invested in the club, and Goody seems to understand what he means to the club.

Could we change the headline by adding " and Luke Jackson has just re signed with the Dees for the next 7 years"

Why would he? Performance means nothing when you're cruising on a 6 year deal on big money.

Happy times

He had stringer contained and then moved to cover others. He wasn’t the problems today

Did a fine job on Stringer early, potting performances like his today is splitting hairs.

Thumbs down on the coaching stuff for not throwing him into the middle later on.

Agree. If we had 5 players that were ok v bombers, Gus could put his hand up. He contained Stringer and did his role across half back.  Serviceable.
He suddenly seems a liitle slower across the ground and likes little 15 metres short passes only.  Coaches also have forgotten that he can go into the midfield.

    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

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
