Genuine chance of happening apparently.

Rumour is talks, and potentially offers, have happened.

Yeah 100%. Don't know how much of a chance, Walker may decide he wants to stay at the Crows, but just heard the Dees were keen.

    I love this club and I have no reason to doubt our management, given it's been impeccable for a long time now.

    But I would have had a very hard time reconciling getting Walker to the club, no matter how good a player he is or how badly we need another established key forward.

    Thank goodness that is off the table now. The man is a cultural cancer. He can enjoy his empty trophy cabinet at Adelaide.

    Haha of course. Would have been surprised if he didn't stay a 1 club player, but thought a slightly longer contract might have tempted him. For reference, the rumour came directly (not directly to me though) from the team bus after the Geelong game.

    There was no team bus…

    ‘Nev’ I quoted your post in it’s entirety. The selective quoting was in relation to when you deleted parts of another posters larger post to suit your narrative. No need to get your knickers in a twist.

    I also heard a rumour from a bus driver once - but when the bus went below 50 the bomb didn’t explode, so me, Keanu and Sandra just got off at our stop.

    I thought I saw footage of Bowey getting into his car and driving himself there. Would make sense so as to minimise spread of covid, flu, fan gossip, etc

    Sorry, who’s getting outraged by trivial stuff?

    Wait, what?

     

    YOU were outraged by the trivial matter of Tex having a crack at Lever for leaving, and considered it a "strike" for which he was given a chance to come back from.

     

    Take a look at yourself mate. Laughable.

    Was there a specific reason why he lost the captaincy? Or was it just a decision made to 'focus on footy'?

    Sorry layzie, I don’t know and to be honest I don’t care. It is my hope that this thread closes so that his name is not a focus on DL anymore. Of course that is just my bias that the MFC and TW should never be spoken of in the same sentence (like I just did……spit!)

    I realise you're only being serious*, but there are problems with this scenario.

    1.  He can't play for us this year so won't be part of 2022's back to back.

    2.  If he plays in our 2023 premiership team, we would have gone back to back to back.

    3.  If we don't win it this year but go back to back in 2023 and 2024, Tex will be about 45 years old by then.

    It's all too difficult to envisage and therefore unlikely for mine.

    * This post is equally as serious.

    Maybe stone was meaning the threepeat?

    I said it was an “incident”. Do you know what “incident” actually means? It’s something “incidental”. Would you have liked me to call it a “happening”? An “occurrence”? A “whoopsy”?

    It was a slightly-newsworthy incident (and remember, incident doesn’t have to mean “big deal”) of a captain publicly potting (twice, mind you) an ex-player for changing clubs. That’s all. I wasn’t “outraged” by it. Just another dumb-arss feather in his dumb-arss cap. But as is typical of you lot (people who think anyone who has a problem with Tex Walker is an “activist”), you’re far more eager to be outraged than anybody, but the hypocrisy is absolutely lost on you.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
