Dees chasing Jimmy Bartel

Lacking some punctuation, sorry God!

I’ve heard mixed things about him as a person, but purely from a football sense, I would strongly advocate for him.

 

Yep. While you probably wouldn’t want Jimmy involved with your sister or your daughter, not many better to have inside your football club.

 

What role? He was on the GWS board. Is he looking for a post on our board? Is he a possible presidential candidate? If Green is pres then does Bartel fill Green's old board role by looking after all of the club football?

What an odd post.

You'd be a strong advocate for him, but have heard mixed things?

What is going on today? Demonland is bizarro world.

"Dnalnomed!"

Sorted.

He's probably referring to his split from Nadia.

Aside from that, you would imagine he'd be a great get for the club.

Three time premier with a brownlow under his belt do not grow on trees.

This would be the most important signing of the off season if it happens. 

 

I rate Jimmy, was hoping he could be enticed to take Brad Lloyd's role at Princes Park 😁

Would be handy to have at the Dees ...

If Jimmy doesn’t make the cut could we employ Nadia to help Brand Petracca?

Why would anyone be dirty on him for splitting with Nadia? 🤨
 

He’s just incapable of keeping it in his pants whether in a relationship or not, hence the comment about probably not wanting him involved with your sister or your daughter. Never come across a bloke with an eye as wandering.

Which has absolutely zero bearing on his ability to do his job well.

I agree, unless of course we found a star somehow but outside of pick 5, it’d be my next!l if we pulled it off.

Interesting. 

What's interesting? Just more negativity. Bartel would improve the club. No doubt.

Jimmy's punctuation is spot on, apparently....

I'd trust Mach on this one...


Make no mistake, we will hear an announcement on Bartel’s future, in the near future. #ETdoesitagain. #WhatHasETheard?

Probably my favourite non Melbourne player, and he's built a good off field acumen since retiring. He'd be a great get in either a leadership or footy admin role. Make it happen Dees!

He’s leadership would be immense

Is that future at the Dees? 

Would love Bartel involved at the Dees. He’s footy IQ and leadership would be a huge addition. And he’d help with culture.  

Add also with Sloane, Bassett & Teague.  That’s a good group to replace McQualter, Stafford and Plunkett.

A Geelong mole to get them Clarry?

Glad I'm not the only one thinking this way.

The last one was Byrnes, and somehow during his time with us the Cats came across the intel about us taking Max Holmes so they sneaked in front of us to steal him. Then he heads back to Geelong and they win the flag.

I wouldn't be giving them any more opportunity to pick up IP from us.

It's pretty stupid though don't you think?

Don't get an ex player from another club because they might steal intel?

It's only the Cats, they're cheating in every way they possibly can in my view, and it goes back a long way. Fords, farms, now Cotton On.

Have a look at Ablett. Could barely get on the park in the end at the GCS. Gets back to Geelong and all of a sudden he's fine. I think his shoulder strapping even disappeared after a while. Was clearly playing dead to get back to the Cats.

They've been into Clarry for years, I wouldn't put it past them to offer him a contract and say play dead for 12 months and we'll pick you up on the cheap. That's my level of distrust for that club.

If the comment was made for every single club, then yes, that would be stupid.

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.
