The Cult of Disco Turner

Anybody hearing anything???

I mean…and we have the player they want…

I don’t think that’s necessarily true. The reporting on the Clarry situation was that if he stayed, he would no longer be in the midfield. And I’m guessing if still around Trac would play forward most of the time. But the broader reality is they’re both going to leave and we’re simply trying to keep leverage by saying we’d keep them around. And I’m sure that’s being communicated to players we hope to bring in and their managers.

Well you can understand why—he probably doesn’t want to alienate all 8 of their supporters

I don’t entirely disagree with you, but when MFC says someone isn’t leaving, especially when it comes through the media, we all know it’s often a negotiating tactic. So why wouldn’t it be the same for GC and Humphrey? Especially since the language they use does not completely shut the door. If I’m GC of course I’m saying we won’t trade him, and if I’m his manager, I’m also trying to get him more money from MFC, so of course I’m gonna say he’s a GC player.

No, sorry, that won’t work for us. Please reconsider.

I mean, even when someone isn’t struggling it’s still bizarre to stalk them. If I was at the airport trying to get organised for a flight and some moron was following me around with a camera trying to get me to answer questions it would take all of my self restraint not to punch him in the mouth.

He said he’s going to Sydney and then America on holiday?!?!? Sam McClure soon to report that Clarry is likely meeting with the Los Angeles Rams to explore the possibility of a code switch??? Huge news.

So we’re all having an incredibly productive day at work today, huh?

Whoa what’re you selling at your garage sales that people are so desperate that they’re calling you to come early??? I’n curious…I might need to swing by your next one, but I’m busy Saturday. Can I actually come by today and have a look?

I used to be an actual journalist. AFL rumour mongers are not actual journalists and are 100% not verifying their information through multiple sources.

I continue to find the whole “he will choose where he wants to go” the most irritating and absurd aspect of the AFL trade stuff. We’ve all said it a million times on this forum. This guy is under contract for 4 more years. He signed a contract. He is making millions of dollars. If he wants to request a trade, fine. But the idea that players under contract get to decide on where they go, which immediately ruins MFC’s ability to create competition amongst clubs in order to get the best possible return, is absolutely insane.

I’d like to take this moment to submit myself for the award for worst prediction of the year 2025: In a state of serious post-victory euphoria (might’ve been Brisbane or Sydney) I suggested on this forum that Trac looked the likely next captain and Kolt could be considered for vice captain… Whoops…

Look, I didn’t want to have to do this, but it is time to take a stand. If Trac leaves I’m gonna have no choice but to unfollow OnTrac5 and find a new purveyor of quick, easy, high protein weeknight dinner recipes. It hurts me, but if Trac is no longer a Demon I simply cannot and will not support his chicken fajitas or pesto chicken flatbreads anymore. (Thank you for your attention to this matter)

I’ll take it as you being a sexist moron. Thanks buddy.

Boy, the [censored] are out in full force on this thread, huh. I’m just bummed we’re losing another young, promising player.

I know everyone says the same thing every year, but I hate that the umps, who showed us all season long that they’re blind as bats, determine who wins the most prestigious award in footy.

Umpires man

The Collingwood chants with an opposing player down injured gave me 2023 PTSD. Scumbags.

Yes, I too wish that Shane hadn’t made the conscious choice to tear his Achilles tendon. It is a well known fact that you can simply train and fitness yourself to the point where your Achilles tendon decides not to tear.

I swear this club could come out and say they’re donating 10 million dollars to help find a cure for cancer and these hacks would find a reason to have a problem with it.

Guesses on how many games (or quarters) we get through in 2026 before someone creates to “Time to go King?” thread?

By the look of many of the comments here it was about 4 minutes
