    Finally some good news. Really hoping Petty has a strong preseason and is over his OP issues. Sparrow is handy to have too.

    Agreed.

    Also pleased with Sparrow's progress.Ā  He didn't set the world alight, but I think there is a real chance that he could become a best 22 player in the coming years.

    Yep, would have easily played more games if it wasn't for his shoulder injury.Ā

    Let's get Petty fit and firing and Ā KP back or forward awaits.

    Liked Sparrows improvement and the way he was hungry when either in the play or resting on the ForwardĀ Ā line toĀ score. Goals from mids are priceless and we must get more from 2021on.

    Petty 20 yo can play forward as he has shown in the past and recruited asĀ a key backman . Great to see the loyalty.

    Sparrow an up and coming future midfielder imo will make the grade. It is good to see our future signing up. They are great kids.

    This is great to retain these SA boys. I'm hoping in the next couple of years they'll develop and show their worth.

    Good try Adelaide - eat crow [censored]

    Interesting. I wonder how far off further list management decisions are.

    I assume as the external review is being conducted, the FD just operates as normal.

    Is one happening AF? I have HeardĀ nothing of it and my email on the same subject To the chairman of two weeks ago has not been answered. Donā€™t be surprised if there is no external review undertaken.I now think that we may get a small internal review that changes a few things around the edges. Hope I am wrong!

    There is one happening, yes. If one wasn't happening, you'd be more likely to get aĀ conciliatory email.Ā

    Is that your only proof? I am hoping he has taken a break or still in QLD orĀ Ā has not even got it / read it yet. I am at the stage of believing it when I see it.Ā

    Glad Petty is signed on. I was afraid heā€™d get cut with reduced lists due to ongoing injuries. Heā€™s got potential at either CHB or CHF. Could be the missing piece of the puzzle for our forward lineĀ if he get stay on the park.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.
