    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.

    You were ready to show him the door with a few Draft Picks…

    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.

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • 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?
