Fancy getting Trac's name wrong. The quicker Green is out, the better.

It was a power move because he wasn’t there.

    As for the BnF, I suppose Pert got up and spoke. What was the reception for him? Can't imagine it was warm...

    "Muted" would be the word I would use. Unfortunately he then said Ben Brown had worn the No. 38. Oops.

    He pronounced it "Pea Tracker" rather than "Pea Trarker". Tricky with the nickname Trac.

    So as an Aussie he said it that way instead of the Italian way.

    That is the least of his and our problems.

    did he use the correct pronoun (he/him). If not then Pert needs to be burned at the stake

    His housemate / friend 

    21 year old - is he paid as his minder?


    Oliver won't be traded at this time, while I'm not against it for other reasons that is not about his health, I hope he puts in a solid pre season and works on his deficiencies to become an all round footballer.

    I think we do a clock work orange on Tracc and Clarry - make them watch the Third Quarter blitz in the 2021 grand final with those things in their eyes so they cant look away or even blink. Everything will be fine.

    Hi Daz & Brendan. I can’t say too much except that right now, I think a deal gets done. 
    When I announced this a month ago, I didn’t think it was possible because I couldn’t see Dees getting fair value from Cats. 
    They’ll certainly have their work cut out taking on Bailey, Claz & Stengle. 
    The stories I could tell re Bailey. 

    Have your thoughts on the likelihood of a deal changed since the events of Friday (reported that the Dees have knocked deal on the head + Brad Green saying he’ll be there round 1) or was that just posturing from the club to make Geelong stump up more?

    Sounds like Cats don’t have more, given Smith coming, so unless a player is involved and that doesn’t seem to be happening, he won’t be a Cat, this year at least.

    Then if another club doesn’t get involved, that Clarry would be interested in, he is staying.

    Very glad our stars are not looking like they'll be traded for now...I think after another full pre season and full season with them mentoring and playing with our young guns we might all feel differently come end of next year.  The star players may have a better year with more success and will be happy sticking around if the club turns a corner, or if it's another poxy year but we get a year of experience into the youth and the older star players aren't pulling their weight as much and causing problems then perhaps we'd be more comfortable letting them get traded.  

    Glad to have another year, I think it will be quite telling, lots to be excited about with the youth though getting another pre season and another year of AFL under their belts that's for sure.  Glad Oliver and Trac and Kozzie will be there to play alongside them for 2025 and hopefully beyond!!

    Probably more where I was angling. wondering whether Dees have/had been pushing for a Neale or a TDK and the Cats pushed back and this latest play was more a ploy to get the to up the offer

    Ugh just turned on wide world of sports & they're live from Accor stadium obviously with the nrl gf & that Sam McClure is there live to talk about trade week.

    Should have stay tuned. Looks like we're keeping our best two midfielders of the last 50 years and still have plenty of room in our salary cap to make a play for somebody else.

    Could be the biggest [censored] you to the media of all time if we snag someone unexpected.

    I heard it from a source 100% more reliable than Sam McClure that he will seek a trade in the next 24 hours. We will see if that eventuates. Same source has got a few wrong but got the Kennedy / Howe trade and the Toumpas choice before anyone else. 

    not sure if you want to identify "he" more clearly. Source now anything to add?

    I can’t differentiate sarcasm & seriousness anymore on this site.

    This a good enough reason for Green to be ridiculed already?

    Please tell me you’re kidding

    Given none of our supporter base can get JVR'S pronunciation correct and yell Roo when he get's it, i'm nor sure why the same people are upset when our president calls trac pertracka.

    Given our track record of draft picks at the time, i don't imagine anyone could have predicted the fat red head kid that nobody else rated would become a legend of the mfc and have the members screaming to burn the house down if he was let go

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
