Absolutely. There's been smoke there for a while but delusional supporters still don't want to believe that there is nothing wrong with the club.

The footy department have the biggest 3 months ahead since the pre Paul Roos appointment in getting the right people in the door through the door whether thats coaching or recruitment. 

There are a number of factors why there are players that are currently unhappy, but when it's your star player, you take on his feedback and do whatever it takes. 

Gut the place, and put some fresh voices around our team and give them a game plan that is going to play to their strengths that will stand up in finals and win.

 

EXACTLY GUT THE PLACE starting with The President, Coach, the ENTIRE football department and then some. 100% BUYING IN ON THIS !

One can only laugh at the demonland cheer squad brigade who  will continue to defend the club at all costs. Watch them now blame Petracca in all of this haha. 

Some supports really need to wake up. 

I'm sure that some of this will be to do with the type of footy we are playing as well. 

I think what concerns me more than this Trac news, is the implosion of the supporter base. 
 

Continue with the personal attacks on people on here, with the attacks on the coach, President, and the players etc. 

 

Not necessarily a blight on you @middleagedemon, as you have many friends. 
 

it’s time to stick fat, support and galvanise. 
 

Just saying……

He may not want out but I'd get it if he was frustrated.

Nasty knee in the back sidelined him for half a year.

His mate Gus out for good.

Max has been struggling with injuries.

And not a few others struggling for form.

It's not the club of 21 . Wouldn't be as  easy to return compared to then.

Club is rotten off the field. Every chance this is viney and petracca away of saying the off field needs to change or we leave the club. 
 

Goodwin, Richardson, roffey, pert and the board all need to go.

Yep

Yeah I've heard a bit of this as well. Nothing overly positive.

WCW, what is your take on this?

From what I saw at training and from what I’ve recently been told chatting with the property stewards and one of the trainers and a couple of the boys re Tracc, this is very likely a huge bunch of BS, just like pretty much everything Morris says.

Of course Tracc is struggling with not being able to play and the extent and seriousness of his injuries, but that doesn’t mean he wants out.

 

I know it’s not what the soggy biscuit group wanna hear (NOT referring to you, Ollie fan. You’re one of my faves on here) but that’s my take on it anyways.

It’s ok we’ll always have our covid cup 

Dude why even ‘support’ this club? Go find another hobby.

I’m sure what Tom Morris is reporting is true, Trac’s public comments since the incident have been pretty telling. It doesn’t take Sherlock Holmes to work out there might be some resentment and bitterness at what happened and that’s totally fair. But a contract is a contract, bad luck!

Jeffo wants out?

Yeah from shizen disposal into forward 50 would be my guess!

FWIW all of the young boys that have recently re-signed said they love our culture. Maybe they're talking about the YoPro sponsorship.

On the plus side. If Tracc, Clarry and Viney all leave we'll have 7 or 8 first round picks.

Yeah but by the time they will be ready I'll be DEAD!

If anything this makes a Clarry trade more likely. They’ll get rid of him to clean house

I guess the players don’t really appreciate contest and defence as much as Goody.

North would not be speaking with Jack Viney unless there was some small chance it could happen. Viney would have never dreamed of leaving Melbourne unless there was some smoke there, he’s too proud a man.

Hnmm a distinct but DISTURBING possibility. If he goes, cheezus there will be a LOT of Members INCLUDING ME Totally peeezed of. Seriously if he goes then our culture is poisen. Coz many other players stuff up and come out OK on the other side! Why can't we be the same. Sorry but if he goes, cheezus ARMAGEDON awaits!

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
