Stupid contract. 
 

We’ll be paying him to podcast or play for someone else way before it’s done.

One paced, can’t kick, can’t man up. What are we thinking?

A panic move by the club because they’re sad LJ is leaving.

Looks like Hamish and Gus were stirring the pot after all, lol!

A lot of Nervous Nellie's on here last night look a bit silly now.

But he's signed and we can all be happy with that.

Go Dees!

Great news. A 6 year deal is a good outcome for Gus. Good on him

Fantastic boost before we play Freo. I predict another top performance from Gus and 25 point Demons victory. and i predict an AA jacket at the end of the season for Gus as well

Go Dees. Whoop. whoop

I spent the last few days at the snow (make jokes of that if you will), anyway I Saw the Gus announcement on Instagram and then jumped onto Demonland for the first time since Saturday night. 

Was quite a ride seeing all the gloomy posts knowing the pot of gold would arrive several pages later.

Very happy with this signing. Love the Gus!

Great signing. I personally love the long term deals for your best players...reduces the annoying noise about potential defection.

I was getting a bit worried about him leaving and what that would have said about what we're trying to build the MFC into. Very relieved.

Brayshaw is a much improved player over the last few seasons...one of our very best at winning genuine 50/50 contests.

It’s ironic, those who read into his interview with Garry and Tim, he was leaving for midfield time heard what they wanted to hear.

 I said at the time I wasn’t worried by the interview, he was open and honest. Stated in the interview he was loving his time in the backline. Throughout his appearances in the media he’s been open and honest, calling out teammates and the overall performance, imploring the team first and do your job but in needed for us to be there late in September.

He has shown over several years he’s a team first player and great clubman, but still he was doubted.

But those who jumped to conclusions, won’t learn the player/coach name and thread title will change but the responses will remain the same

I mentioned briefly yesterday that although he said he would decide at the end of the season, no-one was going to be upset, disappointed or throw him in jail if he came out and re-signed earlier. 

It was a big decision to make, I feel he spoke the truth there. The stay factor ended up carrying plenty of weight and that isn't at all surprising.

On ya GUSSY!  A true clubman.

I knew the talk about ego and being money hungry was just BS.  Hopefully us fans will not believe the media BS and trust our players next time

Just thrilled. Gus has become the heart beat of this team and his selfless acceptance of roles he’d ideally not be playing is a huge part of why the club won a premiership. 
 

I believe wholeheartedly this will provide a massive boost and significant relief for the players and will result in a much improved performance tomorrow night

LOL my teenage son’s been nagging me for ages to buy him a new guitar. As recently as last night I told him to quit nagging as it’s gonna be a while. 
I just messaged him to come straight home from school since I’m gonna buy him a guitar asap. 
His response…

I've just retracted my "like". Your sources are miles off the mark. Care to share what connection your sources have to Gus?

Yeah, nah they weren’t though. They were bang on and always are. I wouldn’t have gone with this as strongly if I did if I wasn’t sure.

So Gus why did you sign on for six years. Well I was playing chicken with the club but yesterday I released that Max had already replaced me with Ben Gibson on the Podcast. I had to move quick once that happened.

Great news.

I won’t go so far as talking of premierships won, but the midfield core we have teed up guarantees a long run of finals moving forward. And that is a prerequisite for winning flags.

Fantastic news. From a cultural point of view this is an important signing. Gus is a leader of the club and has proven himself to be a big stage player. 
We also know how versatile Gus is and so I have no doubt he will still be a vital cog in our machine in 6 seasons.

    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
