Very telling...

I'm reluctant to believe anything that Sam McClure writes.

It's exactly what you do around here Jaded. Don't act like you don't because its hypocritical of you to the point I'm laughing at the irony in this. I've already added to this thread enough, and don't need to add anything further. Go dip deep a few pages and you'll see some of my responses and arguments. People are allowed to react however they feel. I just find it so funny when some have a complete hissy fit over a simple yet harmless reaction 😅

So that's where you learn your lessons and don't follow it up by picking the Zak Jones of the world. He's an absolute potato and a [censored] bloke to go with as well. Pass.

A hand clap reaction is passive aggression response is it 😅 Wow. Just when you think society could not get even more crazier. The ironic thing and more hypocritical, is that I've seen you do the exact same thing to many other posts that you don't agree with. Yet I don't see those guys kicking up a hissy fit unlike you.

Zak Jones as a trade target... now I've seen it all Vomit

Don't be that person that gets so easily sensitive and triggered by a reaction..

I'm calling it now. Petracca will never come back the same player after what has happened to him He has been traumatised and while it's understandable that he is not thinking clearly, his mental state may have been compromised for the remainder of his career Ironcally, he needs Melbourne right now...familiarity and an immediate support structure. Melbourne will also lower their expectations for his output next year than any other club who sell the farm to get him, especially a big club with huge supporter base.

Speaking of #5 but did the Petracca thread get deleted??

Murphy Reid has a lot of Zak Butters traits that are certainly appealing.

Thanks for the update J.

So do I.

Also, I can guarantee there would have been Melbourne recruiters watching the Dandenong vs Gippsland power game yesterday. Not only have both teams got Melbourne NGA kids playing in Mentha, Andrew, Ah-Mu and Prasad, but top end talent in Cooper Hynes and Harvey Langford. Langfords stocks are certainly rising so I have no doubt he's be right on our radar come pick 5/6. Honestly would be another that the club would like. Nothing are bid bodied midfield bulls who would certainly add much needed talent and depth. Though, I think Hynes would probably more likely be in the teams whereas Langford is certainly a top 10 prospect.

Both Riak and Mentha have at least had one nomination to attend the state combine draft. I actually wouldn't be surprised if that was the Dees nominating both lads. Riak Andrew would add further depth and development down back and whilst he is still pretty raw, he's got the athletic build similar to his brother. Mentha is proving his versatility playing down back as this is a big mantra of Jason Taylor and Simon Goodwin when it come to recruiting. Hes always been pigeoned hole as a small forward but seems hes having success as a running half back. im pretty sure we'll gave the rookie spot to fit both on our list come November. Though I believe Noah Yze didn't get an invite to the draft combine which to me doesn't come as a great deal of a surprise. I've seen nothing that stands out to me in terms of having AFL weapons that could step up to elite level. His form in the Coates League level has been so so. On another note, Tarion Ah-Mu just continues to excite me.. The kid is a monster and he kicked another 3 goals yesterday which takes his tally to 18 from just 8 games.

It won't happen. Port want two first round picks including this year. That's there starting point.

We currently hold pick 6 thanks to Gold Coast. Keep it dees and get a 12 year gun midfielder.

Tim Lamb and Alan Richardson are both recipe for disaster for this footy club.

Agree. Ralphy was spot. In a time where we should be out actively talking to opposition players in getting them to the club, the noise coming our of the club would not be helping this one bit. I take the MH into consideration but it's unfair on the club and members there there has been silence because all it does is create unnecessary speculation. Use his manager if he has to in releasing a statement out saying he either wants to stay or go.

Showed more intent and willingness then say Bayley Fritsch who could not look more disinterested and lazy as the night went on.

@Demon Dynasty @layzie Take care the both of you. Times are certainly tough and I deal with these issue on a day to day basis as part of my line of work. My DM is always open if in need of a chat.

It's all about him really. Jon Ralph was right on first crack tonight. When we're attempting to recruit players to the club they're legitimately turning away due to the Trac issue and obviously his silence. It's no wonder some of the players wouldn't have issue if he did in fact leave because they know its always been about him and his brand. The Melbourne Football Club isn't high on Petracca priority list.

Thank [censored] thats over.

Agree 100% We have a psychological issue with this mob.
