New CEO - Gary Pert
He will be better than Paul Macnamee. And won't leave mid season to play legends doubles at Wimbledon

Alex Rance
Most overrated player in the last 10 years. Yes he is a good player but the way the football media goes on about him makes me wanna spew.

Changes vs Adelaide
Agree on Garlett, our structure early wasnt working and we ended up bombing to jeffy out numbered quite a bit in early rounds I would like to see him now we are getting better inside 50 entries. Either way happy to leave spargo in as he has done everything right and current forward dynamic is working

FIXTURING, HOW UNFAIR
I get annoyed at playing teams with extra days break. We play in NT on Sunday, then we play Doggies who will have played on Friday

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - CHARLIE SPARGO
Happy to not have Jeffy at this stage. Spargo has shown in one game that he is polar opposite to Jeffy in terms of hardness and willingness to chase/ tackle. Jeffy does it one game then 3 games he goes missing , been an issue his whole career . You know what you will get with Spargo even though he has played 1 game.

The Game, the Press and the future
6 players minimum on either side of the line who cant cross that line, sounds like netball rules lets put bibs on them and call it a day

50% off Melbourne Gear at New Balance
I can live with the sponsors logos on the front , and know why they are there but I hate the massive logos on the back of the hoodies jackets etc , stopping me from making a purchase . Excuse me now, I've got a cloud to yell at

End of year delistings
I wouldn't classify stretch a list clogger still very young had a bad year but shown he is capable no chance of going. He is also what we need run and decent skill.the rest i agree with but unfortunatly i think Vince Kent and Wagner will still be there

Our Failure to Crush Teams
100% agree Hunt , Vince, Tyson, Jones, Harmes, T.Mac, Lewis, have generally had a least one awful clanger per game that either costs us scoring a goal or gives the opposition a goal. It's a concern that of all our list there are only 4-5 players I trust with ball in hand. Jetta, Watts, Brayshaw, Salem, Oliver (who only kicks it 2-3 times a game)
-
Josh Kelly
Bumping this thread. Is there any reason why we would not be going hard for Kelly, I think he is as much what we need as lever? If he wants to come home I think we should be throwing an offer to him. He has old school mates in Salem and Hunt at the club, salem in particular is close to him.

Welcome to Demonland: Jake Lever
yep and it will be their headline news for the next 24 hours and be topic on their talk back , sen commentator says this blah blah blah sell generated news getting worse and worse that station

Welcome to Demonland: Jake Lever
I too am reluctant to pay top $$ for him. the floating third tall type defenders can be found out really quickly . I don't know enough about lever and don't watch enough adelaide games jut general consensus is he is a future star but Colin Garland was great for 2-3 years playing a similar role

Welcome to Demonland: Jake Lever
well a long way from a done deal but we would need to give up something to get him. Crows would be after our 1st rounder and a player of starting 22 quality. Is he worth a top 10-20 pick and a player of say an ANB quality (who they might entertain given their lack of midfield depth).
