Weird that Sidebottom was cut out as well yet finished top 5 in the BnF then...

 

Sidebottom looked disinterested in 2021, hence his relegation. McRae got him firing again.

    So Grundy was dropped from the leadership group because McRae doesn't rate him, but Sidebottom was dropped because McRae rates him... Makes sense.

    McRae doesn't pick the leadership group by the way, it's done by vote.

    New coach that doesn't rate him, and took them from a bottom 4 to a top 4 team. McRae knows what he's doing.

    So the guy who didn't even make a GF knows more than the guy who coached a flag in 2021?

    If a team asks for a top 25 pick and we get pick 27 there’s no way in hell we should suddenly offer 19! 

    Once they have Tom Mitchell lined up they’ll do the deal for 27

    I suspect the difference btw 25 and 27 is that we might offset this against the portion Collingwood pay of Grundy's salary, e.g. rather than 300k they might chip in 280k or similar.

    They can try that. I’d say watch for the Friday afternoon news dump on Grundy

    If he's such a terrible leader why did Collingwood give him a 7 year deal on $1m per year. Rendell is just denigrating Grundy because he wants to leave his beloved pies. Very transparent

    Quick query.  Bowes is a salary dump and cats get pick 7. So it’ll mean they get a player and a much lower draft pick. So why do the Pies think they hold the bargaining chips. 
     

    Lamb should offer pick 27 and not blink.

    Pies legit are completely cornered here. They can't keep him on the books past trade period, they're over the cap with Mcstay and Hill now. It's awesome. This is the best consolation prize for a crappy end to the season

    I heard it on SEN at the time and thought it was a clear backhander by Rendel. Was unnecessary and sounded targeted to me, he repeated the comments several times

    Glass houses, Matt!

    What the [censored] has leadership got to do with it ?

    We've got good leaders! 

    We want Grundy to play good footy . Simples !!!

    Exactly right. We are not bringing him to captain. We are bringing him in as backup to the best ruckman and captain in the league thanks

    Just quietly, I think we might be bringing him to play the lead role, with Max playing the supporting role.

    • 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.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
