Thanks for the late tip Red!

Was a maiden after 6 starts, who could tip it?

Btw, I don’t bet and don’t tip, for fear of anger when most tips lose, as they usually do.

    This Rumour smacks of Adelaide getting upset that they missed out on Petty also there are rumours that Goodwin maybe in their Sights as they are disappointed with their coach  if this is so Clarry will be overjoyed he doesnt get along with Goodwin 

    Huh????!

    They are extremely close.

    They are extremely close.

    I think that was sarcasm.

    This Rumour

    It was never a rumour, it was unfounded speculation (not unlike the rest of your risible post).

    Not the clearest example of the use of sarcasm, though. So unclear that I’m still not sure it is sarcasm.

    You are unsure it was sarcasm? Ok.

    Yes I’m unsure. Sarcasm is usually unambiguous but that post is confusing. Perhaps @Ferghus31 can explain? 

    Tom Morris is like a defective parrot. He only knows how to repeat the same thing over and over again.

    I didn't back it as I priced it at 12/1

    Centre Square a horse I am in with Clarry, won the 3rd race today at Ballarat.

     

    I've never seen so many people happy on this thread about news that doesn't shed light on his future with us, doesn't have an effect on the team and doesn't effect the people who liked it in any way whatsoever!

    Congrats though Mr Leg.

    Imagine if Clarry did a Tyson Stengle, the media & footy world would go into a frenzied meltdown

    Would love to know how Geelong could legitimately satisfy us in a deal for Clarry. There’s simply no way they could appease us.

    Max Holmes and their first pick

    Geelong did a serious number on us at the end of 2020 (stirring the pot for Viney, outbidding us for Isaac Smith's services, and then jumping the exposed MFC draft order to claim Max Holmes), which has had significant repercussions on our second wing recruiting ever since. See Billings and Hunter and Freeman. 

    I say we turn the tables and make a bold play at uniting party-boys Oliver and Bailey at the MFC. We have better draft cookies than Geelong, and a starting midfield/wing line-up of Gawn, Clarry, Trac, Viney, B. Smith and Langdon would be one of the greatest ever assembled, with Pickett, Rivers and hopefully Judd running through.

    Where’s Caleb Windsor in that line up? Don’t mind Bailey Sniff but much  prefer Caleb who is, and will be, an absolute gun.

    As long as we get out of most of the contract you’re massively over valuing Oliver’s current worth. 
     

    Put it another way, if he was at another club what would you offer to get him to Melbourne?

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
