Give my boy some love.
Incredibly underrated and rarely beaten and continued his fine form this year.

Adams papers were marked the moment Tairon Ah Mu tore him a new one in an intra club match.
Will be delisted at the end of the year.

5 minutes ago, whatwhat say what said: yr take on what 'tied' means is different to mine i would guess
i'd say they're 'in' the nga for gc17 and the bears respectively, but 'eligible' to be selected by those sides or their father's team
last i heard hodge was leaning towards the bears - play with his mates, stay at home in brisbane, etc. etc.
i hate that the likes of he, white boys, and blakey at sin city are able to go to an academy when their development is decidedly not outside the normal pathways for sons-of-guns

Preseason Q&A: Kalani White (Suns Academy)
Tied to two AFL clubs, Kalani White has garnered advice from some of the league's top talent. We chatted to him during preseason.TWO CLUBS, one gun prospect. Kalani White faces a difficult choice in his draft year, tied to a pair of clubs via father-son (Melbourne) and academy (Gold Coast) eligibility.

44 minutes ago, whatwhat say what said: that's not 'tied' tho is it; it just means that they're 'in' the academy
ah mu and prasad are in ours, but not 'tied' to us
They are tied as both White boys will have the option of nominating Melbourne under father son or choosing the Suns through their academy.
Its similar to Cooper Hodge who is tied to both Hawthorn and Brisbane Lions academy.

1 hour ago, Older demon said: I heard Tom Morris on SEN this morning, and with all the other footy news, he had to go straight to the MFC story. Not Vossy and another loss, not North and their 3rd win. It had to be his story.
Tom, I hope you are on Demonland and can read this. From his discussion, we now know
He has a copy of the recorded phone call.
Had to run it past SEN legal before writing, and in doing so, let us know the meeting was recorded without the club's knowledge or consent. If it gets leaked, is he the only person with a copy and the obvious leaker? Why would you want to record a group chat that the club has organised unless you expected some goss
He thinks there is more to run with this story. Does this mean that, as the only person with the confidential information, he is going to milk this story for all he has?
Who leaked the story to him, and did they get paid for their complicit behaviour? Has Tom ever paid his informants for their information in his breaking stories
Is the said individual the person who has been leaking stuff to Tom for the last few years?
Did he think for a moment that he was doing the May family a favour, or that it was in the public interest, or was he publishing for his own advancement?
I would have thought an individual who was sacked for a comment he made to a closed group would know better. He must have, from his own experience, known the damage disclosure of a private meeting can cause.
Cmon mate..
You're more fixated on Tom Morris reporting the story then the actual story in itself.
Tom Morris isnt the issue in all of this. People having gripes with the media and thinking there is a media witch hunt against the club, probably tells you that its time to take off the rosy red and blue goggles on this one.

1 hour ago, 640MD said: Just a question. Probably somewhere on another thread, but
When do Kalani’s brothers come up ?
Right now they are in the under 15s junior level.
Both are tied to Gold Coast Suns junior academy.

So apparently, just listening to Caro on 3aw.
It was the the senior leadership group on behalf of their partners went to the the Melbourne bosses and asked what were club were doing about this as theere were concerns around this.
It was a well intention meeting but badly went off course (Her words).
Alan Richardson ran the meeting and said things he shouldn't have said regarding nature of confidentiality.
In Caro's opinion, the meeting should have been lead by Paul Guerra and not Alan Richardson even though Guerra is inexperienced in his role.
Confirmed that someone at that meeting was recording the whole thing and Tom Morris has a copy of thos recording which was provided to him by a player partner.
Someone then leaked it to the players association and were concerned what took place and the breach of confidentiality in the meeting.
It was then put to Tom Harley who then spoke to Paul Guerra and has chosen to say that this is a Melbourne matter and should be only be dealt with by Melbourne and not the AFL.
Caro concerned that someone chose to record this.
Steven May and partner are not happy with what being said in the meeting.
Whoever has recorded it, has leaked it out and made May and his partner aware of this matter.
Caro also said that there has been "teething problems" between Guerra and Steven Smith. I think that was based around Guerra being new to the CEO role.
No mention of Steven King part in any of this.

Teams meeting is a popular and regular avenue to conduct any online meetings of all forms. This happens regularly across many big organisations and companies.
I manage a team in my regional area in the industry i work in and we have weekly teams meetings, one to one supervision and even ones where i have had to be a witness to a disciplinary one one with a staff member with HR included.
Some folks need to get with the times here.

Yep, Howes has been great this year and underrated in terms of doing his role.
He kept Will Hayeard quiet last week and won a crucial contest in the last quarter which shows he is starting to have the belief at this level. He has hardly been beaten this year.
By the end of the year, Howes will be closing in on 50 games which is where we start to see players hit their straps earlier on.

I reckon Daniel Turner may play forward this weekend. I know for a fact that he has been told by King that he will swing between back and forward this year depending on certain match ups as he rates his versatility and marking ability.
It may not even happen this weekend but dont be surprised if there are games where he ends up forward.

You really do need to question the psychological state of the players.
Two weeks in a row now that they have gotten to 20 point lead in the last quarter and completely crumble under pressure.
Imagine their supporters...

12 minutes ago, Stiff Arm said: I disagree, Dazzle.
Without knowing the details of what was said, it sounds like a highly uncontrolled and unprofessional event with no means of really knowing who might be listening in. Can you imagine the ramifications if someone had recorded the conversation? And that's still a possibility.
Apparently no welfare people involved, getting sidetracked and divulging highly sensitive information about alleged dv. It's a balls-up!
Was Sachi Dade made aware of the call beforehand? Did she consent?
Sounds like someone needs to get their rrse kicked.
Even a low grade manager in most workplaces would know this rings alarm bells, let alone senior management of a very public football club
While I don't usually like club leaks, in this case it's probably necessary to pull a few heads in. One person's leaker is another person's legitimate whistle blower.
If this is true, maybe it's time up for Richo?
I think the club had good intentions of trying to keep people informed especially as there was some pretty wild media speculation regarding the situation.
Maybe the club thought they would get on the front foot for both players and wives as Sachi is friends with a lot of the players wives and girlfriends.
Clearly the way it was communicated may have breached confidentiality which in itself is an issue for the club.
But as I just said above, if a player of a partner had issue with this then raise it internally with the club leaders and deal with it internally instead of running straight to the media.
It is seriously concerning that as we speak, we still have people within the club leaking to these media sources.

2 minutes ago, BDA said: The AFLPA and AFL were made aware so it appears that the relevant authorities have been notified. that's fair enough
So why the need to tell the story to that grub Morris to publish in his s*it rag newspaper. that's someone with an axe to grind not someone with the best interests of steven Mays partner in mind.

That's my gripe as well.
If they had issues with the club then raise the issue with the club leaders internally and deal with it in house instead of running straight to the media and out of all people, Tom Morris.

The way I look at it is the club got on the front foot to address the matter and keep staff in the loop especially as their was media speculation around Steven May
I dont see any wrong doing here.
What i do have issues is clearly there are still snakes at the footy club whether thats player or partner. Get to the bottom of it, find out who it is and get rid of them.

Blake Howes appreciation thread.
in Melbourne Demons
The only realistic part of this post is you continually finding little ways to pot him at any cost. We know you have a history to hating on him.
Shut down Jack Higgins in round 1 who is a quality small forward of the game.
Had to play on a much taller Jye Amiss snd beat him comprehensively in round 2.
Shut down Will Hayward who has been a solid player for Sydney for the last 8 years.
Keep hating, hes doing his job exactly how King wants too and hes now officially in Melbourne's best 23.
