What about Herring Island? Are we aloud to build on that?

Our stubbornness to have a facility in the shadows of the MCG is killing us. Does anybody really care if our training facility is or isn't in the sports precinct? From what I'm hearing we could get approval on a number of different locations but for some reason we have to be next to the MCG. I agree Casey is to far out for a permanent base but if there's a number of closer locations then let's get moving.

I think it's healthy to change thing's up with assistant coaches, I wouldn't mind seeing Ooze as the forward coach and a new face bought in as the midfield coach.

Could be a nice little salary dump for us, 500k isn't huge money but it might free up enough space to go fishing.

It's not silly at all and we'll worth a look.

I wouldn't be surprised if West Coast are the one's that have made the God father offer and have been the team he's going to the entire time.

Yes please

Not sure what has happened, he was in ripping form coming off a big pre season. He just hasn't been the same since his time off from covid and being suspended. In saying that I do feel he's slowly working into some better form but he's definitely not at his best. Most people will be against it but if Tex keeps up his good form I wouldn't be against trying to get him in this off season.

Oh plz, Brayshaw is an absolute jet. There's zero chance they'd give him up and you want multiple high picks thrown in too haha 😄

Everyone can beat their chest and demand high draft picks and certain players but the reality is if he chooses Freo we're not going to get the compensation we deserve.

We've got one!

I'm also heading up for this game, taking the family up for the weekend but attending the game on my own. I'm happy to hear any advice RE parking, ticketing etc...

Really interested to hear how Rosman, Laurie & Howes play?

Any news from the AGM?

I'll say 54k I think a lot of ppl are still hesitant to be around big crowds or comfortable watching from home. Also Wednesday night doesn't help.

Completely agree Picket, I went down last week and sat on top of my car so i could get a decent view. This Saturday I'll go to the same venue for the AFLW and be allowed in as normal. Surely they could have a ropped off area to let the handful of track watchers in to watch training.

Listen to #38 - Selwyn Griffith AFL Head Strength & Conditioning for the Melbourne FC by Prepare Like a Pro on #SoundCloud https://soundcloud.app.goo.gl/tKzNd For anyone interested this is the stoy of Selwyn Griffith the man taking over from Burgess.

Great listening about Darren Burgess and his time at the club. Enjoy

Can we not play in Alice later in the year to collect our 700k?

The boy's are training now (captain's run), Trac moving freely and looking good I've been told.

When he was drafted Goody & Jason Taylor said they could see him playing time as a genuine midfielder, I laughed at that comment. I'm not laughing anymore! Give him another 50 games and a couple of pre seasons and this kid will be a star of the competition.

Spargo's not going anywhere, he's been fantastic this year.

Every time I enter my barcode it tells me it's cancelled, bloody frustrating.
