Timothy Reddan-A'Blew

Broke a looooong break from TV footy shows to watch F/C tonight cos maybe some kudos for Saturday. Seemed like the set-up was, 'Here's Melbourne's problems' and the ensuing discussion was, 'Here's Melbourne not having problems'. Back-peddling writ small.

Is this it? https://www.news.com.au/sport/afl/dees-can-only-trade-trac-to-one-team/video/05928aef5f9fbf663db1a18e244cba53

Post it someone?

There needs to be a Double Ha Ha emoji.

Get on the Club website to see Ben's farewell and Max's contract extension words. We are lucky to have chosen this Club to support.

He continues as 'Talls Coach' with the women. Not hard to imagine him continuing and advancing in our AFLW program.

Says it all:

👏

Ouch!😄

Carlton, surely? Precedented. (Or, in yet another universe, 'A Judd back to West Coast')

Too much more growth in the apparently mutually comfortable familiarity you have built around the training track this year, @WalkingCivilWar, and we're going to see you named in the forward (note emphasis) pocket! Boot Studder Emeritus is a Walk-up, at least.

Grate (sic) follow-ups to this everybody. I'm surprised, though, no-one has speculated that Trac's issues are over his celery. Or maybe he's still ginger from his injuries?

(to yours, D-c, as representative of several others, and sorry, all, if mentioned elsewhere) Young Ned Moyle, languishing in the Suns Twos, and who doesn't mind productive time in the forward line, evidently, would have seen something he ought to have liked, first hand, on Saturday, in a 'team-and-mentor' package.

Surely someone has something to say? Since 4pm-ish on Saturday? (Footnote: Goody's unambiguous presser statement that keeping Petty, Turner and Van Rooyen together has been a deliberate approach, for '10 weeks', to create what finally blossomed (and is clearly expected/intended to continue to flourish) on Saturday. So, also, Jefferson really does need to kick the door down)

Jack, you ought to collate your Before and After pieces, perhaps with clippings of those little graphic media tipster summaries (e.g. Friday's Age - 0 to 14 against us 😄), somewhere for posterity.

Boys going bananas in the last quarter.

That's cos of everyone's unusually close focus on the *cough* 'football' at the moment.

C**k up! https://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/1628768/live-stream-port-adelaide-v-melbourne This turns out to be North v Hawthorn! Our game is tomorrow at 11.30!

Bring On The Girls. 🙏

@Demonland, can we have a 'Paywall!' button?

'Leppitsch in' or 'McQualter out' 🤔 😁

Re discussion of TMac herein: In interview he made the clear observation that he had changed his attitude for 2024, with a purpose in playing on (reasonably successfully it now seems) - and his ongoing guide through the year - being 'to have fun'. So, a decision to continue will be his more than the Club's, I suspect, and the question will be, 'Can I expect 2025 to be fun?' (indeed, 'Am I having fun at the moment?')

Wants out. Something about culture.

It was indeed, @Whispering_Jack!
