Maybe he just wants a brownlow and knows Clarry makes that hard?

I think whoever has advised him has done a horrible job.

Agreed. He is absolutely trashing his brand right now. 

it's time to do an update of this classic
 

 

 

I cannot wait for Caro's next column. She nailed the situation perfectly "There is no leadership here" Wants bigger crowds and to increase his brand. She also let it drop. There is a board meeting going on tonight as we speak, and McKay's manager states he is happy at the Blues. I can only hope that CP5 isn't thinking straight and making bad decisions because he is trashing his brand.

I don't think there will be any love for Christian in her next column

hahaha

You're right would be much easier playing alongside Cripps or Daicos

He's not going to get it at Carlton or Collingwood

That is the funny thing. They may think making up public relations style reasons is softening the blow or making it seem reasonable when it comes across as more like Tom 'just having a look' Scully.

FWIW, back at the Richmond Praccy / family day early this year, of all the players to be out there signing autographs, the very last two players remaining out there long after the scheduled closing time were our Titan, Max Gawn, and one Clayton Oliver, battered and bruised from a bone crunching bump, and fresh off the off-season from hell. Speaks volumes about his character. 

If there is one thing I will NEVER pot the club over, and I don’t care how much it damaged our “culture” in the media, is the way we stood by and helped Clarry when he was at a low point. 
Some things are bigger than football, and players who cannot see that are frankly not good people.

Is there any reason why the latest update regarding Tracc's exit interview has been removed?

that explains why this thread disappeared for 10 minutes

i didn't see anything that broke demonland rules

Maybe our culture is spot on.

Hear me out: is it possible that Trac knows he'll never get back to seriously playing, and he and his beloved club are on the verge of orchestrating one of the greatest draft heists in history, perhaps getting revenge on Collingwood at the same time? 

I think he's working really hard behind the scenes to save us from ourselves.

Melbourne want to burn early picks on Houston? Trac tells him not to come. Gonna burn cap space and picks on Lynch? He requests a trade to Carlton for McKay and, wait for it, more high picks.

What a man

Let him go but get the best deal for him. He may be finished as a star player anyway.

A couple of unconnected thoughts.

1. Did he leak the aNB news to distract and cause turmoil to somehow further his ability to leave citing cultural issues?

2. Did Gawn and Viney sign extensions in a response to this whole thing getting beyond control

3. Were our performances pre KB this year as a result of playing group fractures connected to this

4. Is Trac a perennial ‘illness’ when he plays against Melbourne. 

5. Have you unfollowed Trac in Insta yet? 

 

Maybe he is planning on retiring and wants to trojan horse his way to the pies first, rock up to preseason with a two month load of Parma on the belly?

Deary me..

Some really startling points in this.

Garry Pert currently in an emergency board meeting discussing all the current matters including the Petracca saga.

Lloyd stating that he's spoken to some current melbourne players that have said that they think would be best if Christian left the club.

 

Dazz, I think its all over !! Club is now in total Turmoil! NO way Tracc will be at Dees next year ! Huge development!

Curious as to who you think would be a bigger star/calibre of player to leave us since Ron

Greg Wells, Earl Spalding.

Could the fact that there is an ongoing investigation into certain matters have played a role? Are we allowed to mention that if we use vague language?

1 minute ago, Roost it far said:

It’s McKay and the Blues first or no deal. 

I'd be wanting more than that. Cerra.


What if the club meets half way for Christian. Yes, we will trade you but only to a club that we believe have the absolute right capital. Maybe that’s West Coast? We were extremely keen on Reid. Maybe it’s North? LDU and pick 2? Christian won’t get everything he wants if he ends up leaving.

But he could get a brownlow

And we need multiple hard running midfielders to replace Tracc, Brayshaw and maybe Clarrie. McKay would be nice but won’t solve our problems if our midfield isn’t functioning. 

 

Just wondering how that conversation goes

“Hey Charlie (cornrow), sounds like petracca may want to come here, how would you like to go to Melbourne?”

Nup

”Hey Harry, Charlie said no, but how about you go to Melbourne instead”

Nup

At least this whole mess might cause some trouble at Carlton - haha

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
