I’m over yesterday it’s a loss we can’t win em all. We will be back.

 

all this talk of Angus leaving, why don’t we try and get Andrew to come to Melbourne? Mark is well embedded at Levin Health and They won’t be leaving Melbourne at all.

I've always wondered this as well.

But he seems heavily invested at Freo and looks like he'll be their next captain in waiting.

No way would Andrew leave Freo given where that side is heading.

Tim Gossage, 2 weeks ago, mentioned on SEN that he knows the Brayshaw’s well and Angus would be open to move to WA in order to be close to his grandparents. Also, his girlfriend is dead against a move to Perth.

I ask these questions with curiosity...

What's with the notion that brothers always want to play together? Maybe Andrew is super happy forging his own identity and path.

Do the Saints and Sun board constantly talk about the King brothers?

What about the Ah Chee's? Or the Reids?

There was a little vibe going on here for Nathan Jones' brother for a while.

I feel its just us supporters being quite romantic. Mind you Andrew would add plenty of value.

Jackson for Brayshaw anyone? 😇

Andrew would be moving to the reining premiers so it’s not as if he’s losing anything from a success point of view.

being 30 myself I know I’d rather be with my immediate parents than my grandparents.

think the sticking point will be Danielle. If she won’t move over there I doubt he will make the move!

 

fingers crossed

I’m only saying this for the brotherly pull and that Andrew’s parents live here. And he’s a bloody good footy player!!

Be very interested in hearing Angus's opinions on the way that loss came about.

The "wants to play with their brother" argument is the same as the "wants to play for the club they supported as a kid" argument.

I.e. a discussion point that refuses to die among media and supporters, despite fact that it almost never happens.

Scott Selwood and Brad Hill are the only examples I can think of in living memory. Considering how many players with brothers at other clubs get shopped around every trade period,  that's got to be less than the law of averages.

His whole family lives in Melbourne apart from his grandparents. Worth a crack in my opinion

Probably the best young player in the game

no way to fit him in our cap with Jackson this year and Clarry next year etc

zero chance unless we let a gun go

Posted

Brayshaw leaving Freo would be like us letting Oliver go 3 years ago. 

And the only way we get him through trade and afford him in the cap is after Jackson leaves…

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. 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. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    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
