    No idea what has been going on with Oliver and we still need to have real concern for Brayshaw.  Billings adds that little more depth.

    Steven May had not fulfilled his talent.... fast forward and he has two AA jackets with Melbourne.

    Seriously? 

    They were all good at the time 

    May was Captain

    Lever a gun.

    How is the latest unfulfilled high draft pick going in his new environment ?

    Give me a break please.

    Actually that he's not a big body is the problem I see

    May, Lever and Hibberd became first time all Australians with us champion

    So your argument is that because some trades don’t work we should never trade again. 
    I’ll give Tim a call, tell him he’s fired.

    Ingerson came from the Crows and was more than handy.

    So back on Billings...

    Any confirmation of details yet? Particularly around if Saints are paying any of his salary?

    Apparently they will be paying some of his salary and it's likely a late pick or even a swap of picks i.e. we give our future 3rd and they give Billings and a future 4th.

    Billing’s and McAdam are much bigger players then Chandler and Sparky, 10/12 cm more.

    I reckon Daniel Cross did rather well in red and blue! And in fact, he and his training regime helped to push the Melbourne football club Culture in the right direction.

    Hi

    we seem to have fixed that 26 points zone of death in 2023... we rarely got that far ahead 😉

    Looking forward to rediscovering the zone in 2024

    ...subject to the cost, business-expense-budget(aka salary cap)-wise.

    Stephen Sylvani was just on Trade Radio and said they hadn't even spoken to Melbourne about Billings. So who knows. SOS would be the last person I'd trust on anything. Based on the Vibe. Nothing else.

    It's a SOS special.... how that bloke is still working in AFL recruitment is beyond me.

    Imagine having 60-70% misses at the Giants and Blues and continually given jobs....

      Melbourne’s much vaunted finishing power evaporated at Adelaide Oval on Saturday afternoon, exposed for the third time in four years by its Essendon Gather Round hoodoo.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.
