"[censored] Lachie Schultz, can we give him back?"

Good to see Trac there and smiling.

People still holding serious grudges over him speak more volume on the individual itself.

As @Jaded No More said, we need to be united as a club and hopefully we see a domino effect with the first step being Roffey leaving.

I think that’s unfair on fans. The club (well at least amongst fans) was largely harmonious until all of this mess unfolded.

If (and it is a big if) this talk about Brand Petracca, bigger crowds etc has any truth to it, then it’s a big slap to the face of the fans in particular. His statement didn’t exactly endear himself to fans either, who are understandably bruised over all of this. 
 

I’m sure time will heal all wounds etc

The only noise about brand Petracca was from the media. Trac said in his statement it was about change within the club that he was unhappy about. Let’s see how this plays out. The president is already gone, and I dare say there is a few more that will be gone too.

 

dont hang trac out to dry because we were too impatient to hear from him

They just mentioned on mmm trac and goody caught up in a sth Melbourne Cafe & seemed to be positive.

Maybe catch up at each other's places in private instead of the public 

Why? There is nothing wrong with meeting in a Cafe. 
who cares what the Gutter scrapers want to write

I have every right to be p****d off with Christian Petracca. I don’t like him, I’ve never liked him and I have perfectly valid reasons for not liking him. This isn’t a reflection of me; other DA members dislike him for the same reasons. Him putting himself before the club just cements it.

 I’m not gonna praise him for attending a match, and I think it’s sad that the focus of today’s match was his presence. He attended a W match. So [censored] what?! It’s gonna take some of us way more than one act of tokenism to regard him in a different way.

This is my opinion and I’m entitled to it just like everyone else is.

 

edit: the first of the regulars has already FacePalmed my comment. Thought I’d get a vomit emoji but I’m sure that’ll come.

It kinda feels like propaganda in a USA Disney rally.

Pull your head Trac. Stay away from social media. You have a lot to prove, do it in other ways!

When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail!  Guess social media is Trac's hammer?

I'll reserve passing an opinion on Trac's little media moment because what it means changes completely depending upon whether it is part of a fresh pattern of engagement or if it is a one-off.

Basically, same as when a young forward kicks three and takes a couple of good marks. Good to see, hope to see more, not reaching any conclusions just yet.

You don't like him but yet this was you sucking up to him only a few weeks ago at training telling him how much you all love him 😅 😅

Tracs little media moment?

You do realise he didn't put anything on social media mate. The clubs instagram account and Tayla Harris were the ones getting the photos of him and then shared it to their own accounts.

He shared it because they tagged him in it.

Your obsession with @WalkingCivilWar and her positivity is just plain obsessive. What is it you want Dazzle? The ‘Happy Clapper’? Or an opinion?

 Which part of her trac hating post was positive?

I don't want or need anything thanks. I just laugh how you can admit that you hate a player only to tell that same someone only a few weeks back how much you love him at the same time. It is a true definition of being socially fake to someone.

The guy demanded high standards and professionalism from the club and yet he's the one getting piled on.

Bizarre

Amazing.

You are an angry little ant and need to build a bridge Dazzle. Whilst I respect some of your posts, you let yourself down with the personal and consistent attacks on some and in general hard line view. 
 

Time to get work and get out of that office (or off your phone) and engage the young people.

    2024 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The move of “Disco” to a key forward post looks like bearing fruit. Turner has good hands, moves well and appears to be learning the forward craft well. Will be an interesting watch in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.
