I just cannot see us getting this despite us all wanting this. Freo will not give us this particularly with Lobb in their sights. If we don't budge on this point then I think Freo will take their chances next year going head to head with the Eagles. We're going to have to get used to either taking a first rounder and a player/later pick or Jesse staying for the year and then leaving us next year when we'll get less.

That's not correct. Channel 7 only reported that Freo had missed out on Jesse. I have no idea where that CH 7 got that story. No mention of failed medicals. The Facebook page above reported on the CH 7 report an added in their own commentary about the failed medical without saying it was their own opinion leading people to falsely believe that CH 7 had also reported that. Those two "stories:" merged into a single narrative that spread without any corroboration.

Sadly it's par for the course these days with the 24 hour media cycle and everyone wanting to be the first to report it. There is no such thing as verification anymore.

I believe the failed medical/mental issues were a result of this Facebook page reporting it last night as fact. They have since deleted the original post and posted this explanation.

MAX THE MAGNIFICENT The 26-year-old regained the mantle of the competition’s premier ruckman when he won All-Australian honours for the second time in three years. He also won the AFL Coaches’ Association Champion Player of the Year Award and the Melbourne Football Club’s Keith ‘Bluey’ Truscott Memorial Trophy. His season’s tally of 1,119 is the AFL record for hit outs. Week in, week out, Maxy was instrumental in his team’s dominance of clearances at the stoppages that took it all the way to the Preliminary Final Round.

IRON DOM Tyson had a mixed season and found himself out of the main midfield set up and, on one or two occasions, out of the senior team. He put in some excellent displays on a wing in the lead up to the finals and overcame a fractured forearm in the final round to play in all three of the club’s finals. Looks to be bound for another club in the trades as early as today.

CLARRIE The 21-year-old Oliver finished second in the Keith ‘Bluey’ Truscott Memorial Trophy and though that was one rung below his 2017 placing, Oliver was no less prolific amassing 734 disposals (with a season high 40 in the Round 18 loss to Geelong) and also earning the number one ranking in the AFL for contested possessions (405). Oliver also received All Australian honours for the first time. It’s hard to believe that the youngster has played only 60 games.

Should I merge the profiles of people with multiple accounts?

Just posted on Instagram stories.

Agreed but I don't think we'll hear anything about Jesse prior to a deal in case the deal falls over. A bit of face saving for all involved.

I'm pretty sure this is close to the truth. I doubt we will publicly hear anything in regards to Hogan's intentions until a deal is struck for Neale and perhaps even until something is official between Melbourne and Freo.

I was kidding.

I'm a big advocate for the bronze medal match played as a curtain raiser before the Granny.

It was clearly 3 suits but to be fair after having a think about it he probably stayed in Melbourne for the week and might have had other functions to attend in Grand Final week. Can't wear the same suit twice or thrice now can he?

We've been on the same podcast but there is no way to prove that the other voice was Nasher or not.

If there is no rewind symbol that user has not changed names under that account. That does not preclude a user from having a separate account. I will remind users that it is against forum rules to have multiple accounts. In the past we haven't always policed this rule but if you are using another account to take potshots at others then we will act if found out. Also don't take pot shots at others whether using another account or not.

I saw that too. I'm assuming it dates back to the creation of the new forum software in 2005 which Nasher set up or I'm really Nasher.

I was on the plane home from Perth after the Prelim with the Freo boys attending the Brownlow. They each had a suit bag. Fyfe had 3.

Found it. Mods can now view Display Name history. Members can also view this by clicking on the rewind clock symbol next to a users name in their profile.

I have to find where that setting is because Mods definitely do not have that option and should.

Yeah. That's what I get. When I was testing it out with @Grapeviney we couldn't see that on his mobile. Are you using a PC or mobile to do that?

I would not be surprised if the AFL reward the Blues for their trading by gifting them Fridays again. If they do they will justify their decision by saying they will be an exciting young team. If this happens I hope they get smashed and people continue to turn off their TVs.
