  1. The issue will this is that everyone wants the space to be utilised and that the current status quo needs to change. dees are putting forward a shared public and MFC space. This is exactly what the council wants. Can’t see what the objection is other than funding.
  2. Most people that gamble know exactly the risks and rewards and enter into it like adults. Like everything in life some people take it to the extreme. You can’t completely regulate for those at the edges.
  3. You do realise gambling isn’t illegal? The world is full of vices
  4. What do you mean part of the mcc? Do we have an ownership stake in the mcc? How does this work?
  5. It still not clear why the mcc would be investing in the Caulfield redevelopment. What benefit are they getting?
  6. Also poor by Brisbane fans. Sydney is a 1 hour flight. They sell out the home games. Surely they can get a few thousand to the game
  7. Isn’t there infighting amongst the melb racing club… I think this is holding up a deal
  8. I thought he was more of an outside player getting the ball from libba and trelor
  9. Her interview wasn’t terrible and it wasn’t the only reason she departed. In reality, 12 years in any organisation is probably too long. She had an amazingly successful stewardship since she took over. GF followed by 2 x top 4 finishes is an outstanding record. I would have expected a little more progress from HQ relocation however I can’t imagine that the infighting at the Melb racing club is helping our cause. Time will tell if her efforts at Caulfield Racecourse will be successful. She volunteered more than 12 years at the club. time, effort and tears. we owe her a massive thank you and well wishes.
  10. Brad doesn’t instil too much confidence in me
  11. I can’t see a way that a Clayton Oliver trade is done. firstly, his trade value has diminished. Last year he was worth 2 x 1st round draft picks however this value has dropped to only 1 x 1st round. secondly, like petracca, clayton is on an extended multi million dollar contract. Again, there is too much risk for other clubs to spend that much money on a talent that might never reach his peak again. dees are unlikely to agree to only 1 x 1st rounder and won’t agree to subsidise Clayton’s wage at another club.
  12. Interesting that you make a call on a guys career after 1 year… I’d hate to be your partner and things got bad for a year
  13. We ended up getting to 244 pages… thankfully it didn’t go as long as Jesse hogan 484
  14. The rumour that he wanted a move so he could get more instagram followers was probably the most bizarre
  15. You do realise there’s something to this story. Morris had every right to report it
  16. Brayshaw would have been a good captain 😢
  17. How on earth does Zorko and Ryan get AA honours. Selectors have no idea
  18. Tough when your top midfielder doesn’t have a preseason and 2nd best doesn’t play for half the season. Not sure how many clubs would have done much better without their top 2 mids
  19. Seems midfielders are being picked with speed and ball skill rather than bulk.
  20. North finished second bottom. No possible way xerri gets AA
  21. I actually like the way Carlton play when they have a full side… can’t stand the rest of the top 8 barring GWS.
  22. I’m not sold on Mcvee in the middle. Windsor and tholstrup aren’t even 20 and aren’t proven midfielders. Picket also hasn’t proven that he is a reliable midfielder. If trac or Oliver get injured then you are left with viney:

    14th

    I’d rather finish 14th than 9th… a top 5 pick combined with a bundled pick at 20 will help us secure 2 very good mids.
  24. The forward line is the least of the problems. JVR, petty, turner, Pickett, fritch, macadam and Jefferson. The issue is the midfield and delivery into forward 50
  25. Will be 33 next year… not sure he will play until 35. Hopefully front ended contract
