Interesting listen. Sam McClure tried to get at who the leaker was with the ‘are you comfortable that the board leaker has left the club’ question.

Yes the board leaker has left the club…

Hope we can all glean from that who the real Demons are…

There is no doubt from his response that they know who leaked the documents. Now we just need someone to leak that name 😉

Confidential board documents + No longer at the club =  B-----tt

At least he waited until last season was over and we won the cup before spilling the beans.

Could have seriously set us back years or even a decade if he had done it during 2021 and possibly we lost our coach.

Small mercies.

I think we all know who has recently left the board in acrimony.

Luci, after listening twice, nowhere did Pert say the perpetrator has left the club. That’s just a conclusion that the posters on here have drawn (which may yet turn out to be correct), but we shouldn’t be putting words into Perts mouth that he didn’t say.

In my defence, I didn't attribute the 'no longer at the club' to Pert.   And you are quite right Pert didn't use those words nor directly answer the question.

I took Pert's response (to the question 'that the person is no longer at the club' @ 7.10 minute mark) along the lines of it is ...something that we dealt with...its not reflective of events in recent times...he has never seen the organisation as aligned as it is now... (my abbreviating and paraphrasing) as an indication the answer was:  that person(s) is/are in the past.

But sure, I can see how Pert's comments could be interpreted differently.

At the Coterie season launch last Friday night Mike Sheehan interviewed Goodwin.

Right up front Mike addressed the media issue and leaks etc and how Goodwin and club were handling perosnally over the last few weeks. Goodwin said "...We all know where the leak came from..."  and I've move on type of response after that quote, the journalist in question didn't even call me for a quote/comment. etc.   

He seems to have had great support and Roffey in her speech had a quiet level of fury and contempt at the articles and intent. She can be on my side anytime in a fight.

Lots of people in the room were nodding, so maybe most insiders know and lets get o with 2022.

maybe I was the only one in the room that didn't know.

While Pert didn't say the person had left the club, he chose two key words in response to the question as to whether the person who leaked had left the club.  He said the situation had been ''dealt with'' and that he'd never been at a more unified club.

It's patently clear they're gone.

    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

    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
