Pete Ryan who is one journalist I respect highly has released this article.

Melbourne are well aware there will be suitors but are in open dialogue with Pickett’s management and comfortable their premiership forward is happy with coach Simon Goodwin, his teammates and the way his career has been managed. Sources close to Pickett also confirmed he loves playing with Melbourne.

All true but he hates living in Melbourne. Any chance we can make a few modifications to the City?

    Hi 58er,

    Didn't mean to come across as negative,

    I suppose another year of speculation sounds exhausting,

    In relation to your response, GC from 2011 to very recently were rot,

    As were we from 2011-16,

    So yes retention was difficult,

    And you're right,Jackson, has been the only player of note in the past few years to leave, probably because we haven't been rot,

    Hence why arguably at the peak of our powers, it would be strange for 2 premiership players to leave, when money is a non-issue.

    I'm presenting a hypothetical based on Pickett leaving (whether he is intending to I have no idea)

    However last year's French Farce (LJ apparently taking up until the last hour to make up his mind) still lingers.

    If Pickett has already made his mind up to leave, I'd rather play Chandler instead (or Laurie).

     Ever heard about LJ episode. 
    Think it's really that no one was advising him and delayed it because he was scared? 

    Club  have Exit interviews every season on the first 3 days after season finish so don't believe the farce you advised!

    That's  before Trade period snd I deny case the MFC presumed in its planning LJ was leaving. Whst snout his Manager ?

    He was drunk and using voice to text. Give the guy a break. 

    Much the same way 'Robbo' writes his stories. Has anyone seen 'Robbo' and 58er in the same room? Just saying...

    Fwiw Byron Pickett's son Bryon Pickett jnr (Kozzie's cousin) has just moved down to Melbourne this week and I believe will be living with Kozzie and Trent Burgoyne.

    And if Liam Henry is definitely coming to a Victorian club next year, as Ralphy reports, even if it isn’t with the Dees, he could still live with Kozzie.

    If that's what you think will make him stay then you're all crazy

    Hmm distinct lack of different font colours and sizes and random italics throughout the post 🤔

    Also the abandonment of ‘,,,’ instead of an actual ellipsis means he was doing it as a diabolical attack on the sanity of yours truly all these years.

    Media is loving this. Constant speculation about which club or state he goes to.

    Luke Jackson Mark 2.

    Who is next? Rivers is OOC.

    Other clubs cut deals around this time why cant we?

    Pay overs for both if necessary. 

     

    I agree Kozzie is worth a small fortune, but we do no want to get into Colonwood's situation regarding salary cap and offloading other top rated players.

    Is Byron Jnr a decent footballer?  Has he moved to Melbourne to play footy or to keep his cousin company?

    And track watchers, how is young Burgoyne going?  Is he seriously close to the last spot on the list?

    He’s a likely father son option for North Melbourne I believe.

    If we rookie Trent, I hope it's more because we think he can play and add something in a role. Keeping Kozzie happy would be a bonus.

    Pickett will struggle to get to Port as they have no first rounder after doing a horney franger.  They would have to give up a big name to get Kozzi in.  Has there been any other suitors mentioned??

    I reckon he stays.

    There is a term you have used there of which I am unfamiliar.   Presumably not a person of high libido from postcode 3199?

    • NON-MFC: Round 05

      Gather Round is here, kicking off with a Thursday night blockbuster as Adelaide faces Geelong. The Crows will be out for redemption after a controversial loss last week. Saturday starts with the Magpies taking on the Swans. Collingwood will be eager to cement their spot in the top eight, while Sydney is hot on their heels. In the Barossa Valley, two rising sides go head-to-head in a fascinating battle to prove they're the real deal. Later, Carlton and West Coast face off at Adelaide Oval, both desperate to notch their first win of the season. The action then shifts to Norwood, where the undefeated Lions will aim to keep their streak alive against the Bulldogs. Sunday’s games begin in the Barossa with Richmond up against Fremantle. In Norwood, the Saints will be looking to take a scalp when they come up against the Giants. The round concludes with a fiery rematch of last year's semi-final, as the Hawks seek revenge for their narrow loss to Port Adelaide. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Geelong

      There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
