Even Tom Morris is saying if Bailey is to be part of a deal he has to come out publicly until then there is no chance

I think it might almost be time for Humphrey to post another slightly passive aggressive cryptic post on social media.

If he doesn't request today, I think all hope is out the window. We need something else to lift the spirit back up! Do it, ffs. REQUEST! 😂

edit: let's spam his instagram post with msgs like.. HURRY UP AND REQUEST THE TRADE! 😂

I reckon if one of the stronger Vic clubs had the currency to satisfy the Suns then Bailey would be making stronger noises publicly to come home. If he ends up staying I guarantee that come the trade period next year and the big Vic clubs have their ducks in a row they will easily be able to pry him out of GC.

Probably means he doesn't like us then 😅

I have said if BH isn’t cleared to us, it will be a culture killer for the Suns.

I choose to believe Pick 24 is just a stalling tactic as we wait for Humphrey to set up an elaborate "I want to be traded" spectacle, in the manner of a gender reveal.

He will launch a red and yellow dirigible into the sky above Moe and then get Xavier Duursma to shoot it with a flaming arrow a la the bloke at the Barcelona Olympics. The airship, filled with hydrogen and pigment, will explode in a red and blue conflagration that can be seen from space.

When asked why he finally relented, Craig Cameron will utter the immortal words: "The humanity."

If it was going to happen then it would have happened by now. Players only openly request trades if they think it's likely to get done.

We’ll be here all week (or at least until Wednesday night).

100%

Every player that has been traded or currently in negotiations have all nominated a FC

Fair to say Hump has no real interest with us and knows Hawthorn have no currency to bring him in now that Merrett is near

Surely we are telling him that.

We should contact Tracc and his entourage and tell them to tell BH to come out and say he wants trade to us.

Tell Tracc if that swap doesn’t happen welcome back.

There is no other deal.

Your boss may not think you getting much work done but I for one think you're producing terrific content!

Listening to Morris, it is very obvious that he is getting all of his info from the Suns. The chatter of 7&8 for Trac and 24 is all framed as 'Suns will do it if they get 24 back'. It's only about what is good for the Suns. It seems that Melbourne aren't leaking, which is good because a) leaks to the media suck (our toilet blogging BBQ enthusiast aside) and b) there is still the chance that we play hard ball with Humphrey being the end target

Well done demonland, a whole lunch break wasted catching up.

Thank goodness for illegal durries.

If he was as desperate to get out of the GC and return home for personal reasons then he would have publicly requested a trade. That hasn't happened and will not happen. Dees fans need to come to terms with the picks.

Anyone else feeling similar vibes to this scene in the Neverending Story, when the childlike empress is pleading with Bastian to 'call my name' otherwise their world will disappear and there will just be nothingness?

IF BH wasn't still an option this trade would have already been done.

Melbourne over recent years wastes no time in getting trades completed to open options for further trades particularly around picks.

Except Curnow, Merrett, Simkin.

They have only privately expressed interest in a trade.

Oh wow. Yes. This is prime Xennial (Generation Y/X cusp) content.

That's weird, Beelz; I don't think I posted that? 🤔
