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

Carlton is the club that I can’t work out…several top 10 picks plus the likes of Martin, Saad, Cerra and Hewitt on presumably big coin…

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.

    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
