    Morris really needs to reevaluate his Sources or else he won’t last another 6 months…

    He should never have resurfaced from his misogyny. Typical AFL boys club mentality still living in this industry

    You were pretty with him the other day. Said it needed to be aired and change would happen as a result. Are you back pedalling SWYL?

    Not at all. Changes are happening 

    Morris needs to find better sources, not for one minute did i think Tracc would leave. 
    Does the Club need to improve on and off the field?

    Yes it does…

    I agree, we need changes, but you were very laissez-faire about Morris and by extension Trac [censored] on our club.

    It needed to happen. All of that.

    How about driving change without airing dirty laundry?

    I don’t believe Morris was Lying. But his sources are rubbish. 
    And i have no doubt Tracc has been frustrated with the Club for a number of reasons, but i do believe that those frustrations are being sorted right now. 
    He doesn’t have to give a running commentary on his feelings to the public, just because you want it

    All he had to do was get his management to act exactly as Peter Rhode did on behalf of Kozzy yesterday. 

    "Melbourne has been assured by Kysaiah Pickett's management that he is content at the Demons despite continual approaches from clubs..." NewsCorp.

    Then it becomes a non story.

    But that didn't happen. Instead the club was dragged through the mud.

    Glad his management said no and he's working to rebuild relationships and the club is looking to get better too.

    I hope he stays, playing it through the media was not the right strategy.

    Only because you believed it.
    Tracc is rehabilitating after a life threatening injury, he is entitled to say nothing 

    He is a long Contracted Player 

    To keep his heart rate down, he probably has his phone and computer turned off

    Where did I say Trac needed to say anything? He has a management team. Just like Kozzy. They could have fizzled it. They didn't.

    What a cockroach 🪳 that Morris is, trying to create "story of the year" and continually doubling down on his sources.

    Absolute tool of the highest order.

    The more worrying thing is where this leak came from.

    Not going to label anyone but it's either come from one or two parties.

    I hope it's not a leak from within the club.

    I was surprised at how civil Goody was towards him in the midweek presser last week!!

    So just reading an article about this, I'm thinking trac wasn't ready to talk to any players about what he was going through & the players probably didn't realise just how trac was feeling.

    When trac revealed all the other day now the players know & I reckon they'll put his arms around trac now & check in on him a bit more

    I saw Caroline Wilson go on a rant about the clubs communication. The bottom line is the club has a responsibility to the player’s privacy. It isn’t up to them to talk to the players group about Trac’s state of mind unless he explicitly gave them permission to.

    Really? Old Time Demon for sure. Nice bit of sexism. She's a good reporter that writes some things that make Melbourne supporters annoyed from time to time. Her gender is irrelevant.

    I reckon Trac would have said something pretty quickly if the same level of negative press was being associated with the CP5 online brand he's building as is the MFC by virtue of his silence. 

    His management could shut this down in 5 seconds flat if Trac wanted it, he wouldn't even have to speak himself, he's making an ongoing choice not to do so.

    Maybe so, we have no idea what the reasons are. I think last years offseason has a lot to do with it, but that is only my opinion. As i said last week, he has basically told the Club to get its act together, which I think is a positive

    Something he's very entitled to do, but this isn't the way to do it. the speculation will now continue until Trac is traded, or trade week ends if he doesn't speak, and personally, i suspect that's what he wants.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
