Didn't take long http://www.news.com.au/sport/sports-life/eddie-mcguire-fires-back-at-melbourne-over-collingwood-succession-plan-sledge/news-story/d727e679786886eebeb73e6446c8798d

Not only that, but Goodwin's strength is building relationships... something Need seemed to go out of his way to avoid. Let's hope it's the Roos/Clarko method and not the Hardwick method.

Me too. I'm more excited by Hibberd than Milkshake but I think milkshake has more to offer positionally ie wing and midfield. Hibberd, you would expect, will play HB

I'm pretty sure he meant 3 games live

In a trade week radio podcast last week. I don't think he actually knows what the word means. Said we were targetting older players with leadership, and then called it scattergun

Seems less comfortable talking off a script, as he did at the start of his press conference, but answered questions with ease.

Suprised GWS don't have more included, but that is a seriously handy team

If we can get him as a DFA, no worries. Wouldn't want to give up much though. I wonder what @Mach5 thinks of him?

The mods have already said they have removed any reference to this until recently as they thought it was a personal matter

Jack Viney is one of 4 players to undergo post season surgery. Had an op on his hip, while TMac and Pedo both had shoulder surgery and VB had ankle surgery. Will keep Viney and TMac out of footy training until after Christmas http://m.melbournefc.com.au/news/2016-09-14/preseasons-on-hold-for-dees-under-the-knife

He already has... for us again. Said Goodwin trying to get in any senior player with leadership qualities I.e Thompson and Dal was scattergun

This is the problem. Going by recent phantom drafts, would be Weller and ainsworth for Hogan

I knew it wasn't you and wanted to head off the 'must have been saty' brigade. Gysberts could have been a good footballer, if he had the drive. Would love Viney at Gysberts height

Yes, and that was what was new about GNF's post. I am not saying he is right or wrong, simply stating that a decision either way in October is not out of his timeframe

And it's was Jesse who said it. Something like, "Hopefully it'll be sorted in the next 6 months, if I re-sign or whatever"

Within 5 months, not in 5 months

I still remember someone (not saty I don't think) who, when this photo came out, said "But you don't know how many reps and sets he had done before it!"

If it were 2 on 2, probably. Will depend on how we recruit. I hope Daisy gets the recognition she deserves in years to come. Has been an absolutly dominant player in a period when women's football has only started taking off.

I see what you mean, but yes. At least one of those games is a loss, and to do it over 4 games, while polling more than a player who has only played in wins, and therefore is more likely to poll, would be seriously impressive

To be fair, if a player is in the top 5, 4 games in a row... they are prob ably going to deserve it.

Like Viney, Jones, Tyson and Oliver?

So they've resigned hurley, heppell etc, and are in the race for O'meara and hartlett. Would love for them to be pinged for salary cap breaches in the next couple of years

Yep, have all year also

Apparently Norf have upped their offer in the last day or so. 2 years at 550k each. Reckon he'll stay

Plus need to get Hill and McCarthy in
