  • Demonland changed the title to Tracc Wants Out?
 

It was flagged in here a few days back so there is no point at abusing Tom ambulance chaser Morris.

What a cluster # ck this " Club" is

    Great club 

    Said in another thread that there were some unhappy players at the club. Trac was one of them.

    Regardless of what some people on hete think that every single player is happy at our club and for the coach, well they arent, that's the reality. 

    Some are happy, some aren't. That's footy clubs for you.

    The club handled the Trac situation poorly and the family are still not on great terms with the club.

    From a players parent I bumped into a few weeks back.

    The report is that he’s unhappy with the club (but not Goodwin) and if he were out of contract would request a trade tomorrow. 

    If true, this is a “sack whoever it takes to appease him” situation. This club will fold if Trac leaves. It’s not just who he is on the field, it’s who he is off it. He’s connection to our supporter base, he’s marketable, he gives us relevance where we might not otherwise have it. He has, until King’s Birthday, been so incredibly passionate about this club. If changes can be made to make him feel more comfortable, then we make those changes. Stuff concerns about putting one player above the rest. Exceptions get made for people like Trac.

    Trac has always struck me as the type who has looked for an excuse to leave

    As much as I hate to hear this development, I can understand his concern. The Grundy experiment, the recruiting of 2nd rate players like Billings, McAdam etc, no reward for players going well at Casey. Might be the kick up the [censored] the board and coaching committee need to hear. 🤔☹️

    But I thought everyone was happy and loved the coach and club? Welcome to the reality of a football club. Would hate to lose him but understand the frustration. 

    Change is needed and must happen rapidly.

    About the most of it. There's always a mystery club. Straight swap for Nick Daicos or no deal.

    Apparently Max Gawn told him to ‘man the f up’ and get back out on the field when he was injured, and that Goody gave him a spray because he went down to the rooms instead of staying out on the ground at quarter time

    if he wants out, he wants out

    no point having a player who doesn't want to be there

    Well Morris did say he hasn’t got a problem with the coach… I’m not sure what he means by direction of the club. If it’s to do with finishing 13th I can confirm that 66k members are also unhappy with this

    That’s what happens when you get back to 17K crowds on Saturday night prime time

    Would get some great draft currency and setup up our rebuild. Not saying I would trade, but if unhappy- then so be it.

    Source?

    Even this report says he’s not upset at Goodwin per se.

    So potentially within the span of 12 months

    Brayshaw - retired

    Oliver - linked to Adelaide 

    Viney - linked to North

    Petracca - possibly requesting a trade

    What the bleep has happened to this football club?

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
