Brayden Ham
I want him to come based on his name alone I think Ham will carve it up. He thrives when the heat is on ummm what else... nickname, the Radio? I feel like Pig and Ham will gell well in the backline

Alex Neal-Bullen
I see ANB as a player we would keep but who is tradable for sure. He is professional, the right age group. however his skill level is not good enough to play around the ball for long, too fumbly there would be around 10-12 players that we would not trade. the rest we would listen to offers. guys like Pruess, ANB are certainly in the latter category and have some trade value for us to improve our list

Delistings
Petty could be a player but I hope he can be a much needed forward option. So Oscar still needed as cover down back
-
Delistings
O Mac has been poor but he is good back up if we have injuries. If may and lever go down. Who plays?
-
Farewell Braydon Preuss
Well then this is poor research from the demons and pruess over estimating his abilities he has been good to have a back up in case gawn goes down but that’s it. Hopefully we have scouts around the place and know who the best ruck/fwd is not on an AFL list.

Farewell Braydon Preuss
does anyone have any idea why he came to us? he must know he can't play fwd. maybe we just offered the most money/longest deal. pretty good money for doing bugger all

Brad Crouch
cheers for the info I wonder if the cops don't like you much if they can charge you at their discretion? like a Shannon Noll-type unofficial law
-
Brad Crouch
Why did they not get charged when found with drugs? are they above the law? sent for counselling like they are the victims, bizarre

Two Metre Peter
Haven't seen him play. The sun have a lot of good talls so doesn't seem to have gotten a look in. Sam Day has come good this year (If Day was available he would be handy) and King is obviously a potential gun

Adam Saad
Add in 900K for Martin and big money for McGovern and they will be cap trouble soon. you dont sell the farm for half backs. unless their game plan is to purely score from counter attacks/HB. they need 2-3 more solid midfielders. we need to keep cap space for a goal scoring fwd and for our guns (Trac etc) as they come into the big contract years

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - HARLEY BENNELL
What a fool. nice way to repay the faith the club showed him he has thrown away his last chance.

Too old. Injuries will hit soon.

Game Changes in 2021
I’d like to return to footy in the 90’s. no more 135 min games. It’s too long. bring back 120 min games
-
Improving from Within
Bit harsh expecting Trac to improve. He is the second best player in the AFL this year. If his kicking was off at times it was because he was constantly tackled whilst kicking

2021 Preseason Training Timeline
I know, what a joke this is. it is playing with player's careers. I would also be interested in how much the AFL admin is being downsized if lists have to be. the biggest drain on the AFL is all timewasters in AFL HQ.

Well Done Christian Petracca
What a gun. I haven't seen such a dominant season by a Demon in a long time. especially the way he impacted games. We finally have a Dangerfield/Dusty type. this is a major and necessary cog in a premiership tilt imo. If we had finsihed top 4, I reckon Trac would be taking home the Brownlow and most other awards. A credit also to the coach and guys behind the scenes. not often MFC develop players as well as this

2021 Preseason Training Timeline
Why do senior players get almost 3.5 months off if not in finals? that leaves the coaches with 2.5 months to train. get ready for the changes to game plan, learn new roles etc. I'm all for the players getting a break but this seems over the top. Dec should at least be fine for people to train if they wish and attend meetings etc. It puts a lot of pressure on the players to stay fit in their own time during this off time.
-
Time to have a talk about Jayden
he already has his breakout season in 2017. looked like the next big thing off half-back he is my most frustrating player, such talent, speed, good aggression. I just don't think he concentrates for long enough and applies himself enough. not sure what the issue is. the last 3 seasons he has been inconsistent, can't be risked in the back line. in and out of the side. I'd open for a trade, especially if it could get us a big fwd
-
Mitch Hannan - wing?
dont think he has the tank. give him the challenge over the break and off season to build his endurance with the carrot of a regular wing spot see what happens. we need him getting to more contests in the fwd line anyway if he is not successful.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - BEN BROWN
If Polec leaves and Higgins who are north paying big money? They need to reach 92% of the cap. They won’t be able to attract anyone decent in the trade period with their ‘war chest’
-
WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - BEN BROWN
Very risky strategy. They don’t have much of a young core 22-26yo so once Goldy and Cunnington/Zeilbell are too old in a couple of years they will be in real trouble. im loving it! Tassie Ross by 2025 I reckon

2020 All Australian Team
Yeah I know. I was more trying to point out the criteria for the award sucks. Rowell has risen to star level already amazingly, and is clearly the best kid to come through this year. So it’ll hardly be interesting seeing him win it next year. I’d want to see the next rising star come up
-
2020 All Australian Team
No I’m saying he would play the HF role far better than butler. He goes fwd in most games he plays. I get the positional argument but I’m happy with this call

Mitch Wallis
Couldn’t think of a player we need less
