Ha, and then the criticism rolls from TL to JT!

Literally, or metaphorically? 😆

Agreed! And - did that need to be gendered? 😘 I'm sure there are some F.A.B folk on here of the same persuasion!

Anyone on board the 'This Tim Lamb fella is pretty savvy and has got a great deal, when GC have chose to hold someone against their will' train yet?

Potential 3 Firsts .... still... 'Sack Lamb!!'

In terms also I really like this move. Provides the team with strong OFF-FIELD leadership which we are desperately lacking and may be invaluable when we develop the list next season and beyond. I think his toughness, character and ethiic is also going to be an asset to the team.

It needs to be put in this thread 😄 https://demonland.com/forums/topic/38236-when-will-melbourne-break-these-embarrassing-records/

Mostly here for the 'Go Dees' to neutralise any negative response to a post...

Probable interpretation of Tim Lamb waiting til 730pm...

Forum handle to positioning statement checks out.

Well maybe just maybe the coach understands this, and is holding someone important to his contract.... and damned the expense and cost of it -as it wont be on his watch, when they all leave.

Such a great visual Anyway... it's the same angst every year at this time on the forum. Why are no players of any worth committing to us publicly ---> we're a rabble Why do we always get bent over in trades ----> we're a rabble Why do we always pay over ----> we're a rabble. Lamb is the worst!-----> we're a rabble. Every team (aside from Geelong) goes through these peaks and troughs...

Why is it 'caving'? I think I know what the most pragmatic approach in this situation...

Because we are importing EPL language.... 🙄

Rumours are only allowed in the Rumour Thread™ — it’s literally named that way. Clear boundaries. Clear expectations. Inner peace. But… if the exact same post shows up anywhere else? All alignment collapses, the inner monk leaves the building, and upsetness prevails.

I mean, its almost like it's orchestrated...

All aligned for a cause... hating Trac, hating CAC, hating BH's manager... and then soon, back to hating other posters...

These are exactly the situations where we should stick to the view that the Brownlow IS a credible measure of value of a player 🤣

Thanks for sharing the update — it’s appreciated, even if it doesn’t seem to add much that’s new at this stage...

This isn't a comment about you @Bring-Back-Powell - but I find it a hilarious notion, that all these coaches have been in AFL environments for a very long time - yet only ONE of them has the capacity to a) know what elite training standards looks like and b) demand/instill/allow elite level training standards from the players on a consistent basis.

Saying “someone with poor impulse control and big emotions is ADHD in a nutshell” isn’t really accurate and it’s worth being careful with that kind of shorthand. ADHD isn’t defined by emotion or impulse issues alone. Those can show up for some people with ADHD, but they’re not the whole story and they can also appear in anxiety, trauma, depression, or just in certain personality styles or life stages. ADHD is primarily about differences in how attention, motivation, and executive functions (planning, organising, regulating focus) work. Emotional reactivity can be part of that, but it’s not the core feature. It’s a bit like saying “someone who gets tired easily has diabetes” ...tiredness might be present, but it’s not what defines the condition. So while the comment probably came from a genuine place, it oversimplifies something that’s actually quite nuanced and it can make people who really struggle with ADHD feel misunderstood...like me.

Anyone for a synopsis - I don’t have Twitter /X

reminds me of covid days... a big glass of beer in the coffee cup.

The motive to ship out isn’t their role as contest winning midfielders - or backmen its culture. Fit in or [censored] off… I wrote an article today on the difference between high performing cultures and high performing environments. SK is working on one pillar first.
