So it's open season for the media to talk about our players under contract?

Not only under contract, long term contracts.

Can they go away and talk about other similar players from opposition clubs? 

Do you see all these drivle about any other club? 

 

of course, the AFL wants player movement, so that will continue to be promoted, players are going to come and go, and really good players like Kozzie will be chased every off season regardless of where they're playing. 

I understand the emotional attachment, but we just simply have to trust the club has the right things in place to hang onto guys. 

He's not going to be traded with 4 years to run on a deal unless we're offered something outrageous

Time for MFC to hatch dummy bids for several highly rated stars from other clubs... just in case they are wanting to come home, wanting to leave home, wanting to go fishing, want to start a family, want to get involved with a media career, want to get out of the fish bowl... want a set of steak knives... just bombard the industry with highly publicized feelers!!!

Perhaps a small ban on threads like this before my head explodes.

I feel we are we some sort of dying carcass on the side of the road being circled by vultures.

Fair enough.

Any danger they report on the other 17 teams?

Lots of players that we would like to have as well.

We've been linked to Josh Battle, Jake Waterman, Dan Houston, Harry Perryman, Issac Cumming, James Peatling and i am sure others publicly this season, so that certainly happens as well. I get it though, it feels closer to home when the club is getting slammed from all directions

Tomorrows the headline will be Max Gawn Could Potentially Consider Answering Phone if Rival Was to Call Just Days After Inking New Contract

You’re not doin’ headlines right. 18 words is at least 15 words too long.

To be fair, if Max was ever involved in a trade situation they could probably get away with a headline of Max Gawn?

Maybe a tattoo headline “Max After Inking” or a more wide ranging one in    “ Max Gawn Could”.

Imagine the ongoing debate over whether he could or he couldn’t.

Then some other genius could start a story over whether he might or he mightn’t.

Headline "Port interested in Kozzie Pickett after he has 21 disposals, kicks 4 and tears their defense to shreds single handedly" 

Not shocking they want him at their club given he dominates every time he plays Port.

Sorry, all we have to do is talk about Port and i lose the ability to read, write and count.

Gold. 😂

 

I read a book called Boy Swallows Universe in which the merit of the 3-word-headline was discussed. The author is clearly NOT a Port fan.

That's a great book, and the TV series is also really good. Highly recommend.

Has looked disinterested last few weeks

He looked terrible two weeks ago against Port kicking 4 goals and having 21 touches.

I would trade for Beau McCreery

I am actually concerned that the ripple effect of potentially Trac, Oliver, Viney leaving will mean Kozzy wants out.

I am sick of seeing our club be direspected and low balled in trades. I'd start a malicious rumor about them if they didn't also include a future third round pick, has to be a late one though.

Oliver has NEVER said he was leaving, nor has the club since last year.

Viney is about to sign an extension.

Trac has his own issues, and the club has told you multiple times he is going nowhere.

Just because fans are melting down over the fake news about our demise, doesn't mean Kosi is.

Four of THE most nonchalant, blasé, non-committal goals you’ll ever see

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.
