Just publish a list of every teams "wishlist".

Most would start with our list, but they can't have them. Tell them all to go and get >>>>>.

And yes, there are far too many so called footy journos. What a waste of electrons and paper.

 

What a waste of memory in data centres.

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

[rjay 24,572]

...and why wouldn't they be interested.

Mad if they're not.

We're probably interested in Butters.

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. 

explains why their fans are the way they are really.

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.

Perhaps 3 tooth per mouth might be more appropriate for Port Adelaide

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

There are no big melbourne clubs in premiership contention, journos don’t have anything else to talk about so they just whip up stuff like this

Let's see how he plays Friday

 

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.
