Trac has recently got really involved in welfare work and helping the unfortunate

He has recently toured some of the most down-trodden and needy institutions in Melbourne

He will dedicate tonight's gnocci recipe to North

    Sorry if I disappointed you, the convo was not fake

    I figured this post may reduce the pile on for someone just sharing info of interest, which people are free to take or leave.

    Worth noting again.

    Thanks for sharing your version @Egg2883

    Sam McClure loathes Melbourne.

    Who hurt him at Primary School? This is deep seeded pathological hatred.

    I remember when that [censored] who is a Carlton supporter was fooled by Clayton Oliver pretending he wanted to go there to get a big deal from Melbourne. He quadrupled down on this even when it was pointed out he signed a huge deal about a month later.

    Sam McClure obviously didn't watch our win on the weekend. What a d*head

    And I’m questioning the validity of that conversation.

    If you don’t like it, don’t post it. 

    Wait what?

    We're now telling people not to post or pass on any information they may have been told because it simply doesn't suit your narrative?

    Seriously, this place has the lost the plot with the amount of sensitive and insecure individuals that cry at the drop of a hat when a journo reports some of late regarding our players.

    It's up to you whether you want to believe it or not but to completely slam someone purely for passing information is genuinely pathetic. 

    Thanks @Moonshadow for passing on the info. And yes you are 100% spot on being a normality that players do meet with other clubs and tour facilities. Clearly @adonski has heard similar rumours of him touring North facilities so there mudt be some smoke somewhere. Doesnt mean hes going there though.

    Happens all the time. I know for a fact Scott Lycett from Port Adelaide did a medical and toured our facilities last year but but no one from the media barely reported that. He turned us down eventually citing that he felt his body wasn't going to stand up to another rigorous year of AFL footy.

    Interesting. Would have been handy to know for those that rubbished us for not chasing Lycett or another ruck...

    Where the hell did I say that?

    I asked a question relating to the timing of the visit and how it got past the media. 
    Comparing Trac to Lycett is laughable btw. 

    At no point did I say it shouldn’t be posted. Only that if you post rumours you should be prepared to have them questioned. 

    You can post what you want but if there’s no proof then prepare to be questioned for it.

    It was. I was told he failed the medical. 
    Goes to show you how inaccurate info spreads.

    I posted that an employee of NMFC had told me that Trac had done a tour of their facilities. That's it.

    If I had known that for you I had to record the conversation and ask him for id as proof of employment, then I would've done so. I'll remember to do that next time 🤦

    It would make sense give they're one of the very few teams that could actually afford him/have some chance of completing a trade, i just don't see why he'd leave us, for them to be honest.

    Wants and needs. Needs trump wants. He therefore has to and will stay. 🤞

    I’m not going to reveal my sources, so don’t ask, but Christian did a tour of the Yarraville-Seddon Eagles facilities last week. He was very impressed by what he saw, including access to the Westgate, and public transport options on both the Werribee and Williamstown lines.

    His reservations are parking around Anderson street, and the lack of blockbuster movies showing at The Sun cinema. He does however rate the cinemas Choc Tops.

    And he doesn't get the whole 35mm thing.

    I have no doubt they did. Doesn’t mean they told you the truth. 
    I’ve been told plenty of BS from people in the know too.

    Can i propose we change the title and focus of this stoooopid thread:

    Petracca will stay as even if he wanted to definitely go, what sort of deal would satisfy us? And is a satisfactory deal even possible?

    We can always hold him to his contract anyway

    We've already lost a topliner in Brayshaw, a handy utility in Smith and I can't see us getting much for ANB (who is one of the first players written down on the team sheet)

    I feel the media is just pushing 5 articles a day on this when they’ve had no new info apart from the original disgruntled report.

    Goodwin again said today that Trac is staying and will be here for 5 more years but that wasn’t reported anywhere. Instead, more rubbish hypothetical trade articles on him leaving.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
