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

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.

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.

    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
