Consistency of production and contested ball winning. Well worth the risk for his upside for mine!

I doubt he would drift this far back but Noah Hibbins Hargreaves would be an unbelievable pickup with this selection.

Haters won’t like this but here’s a home truth. The Kennedy centre has nothing that, aside for a whole heap of administration space, that Casey doesn’t. Same indoor kicking area, same pools, similar size gym, elite training field and it’s a distance from “hawthorn”.

I don’t see a great deal of pace between W. Ashcroft, Neale, McLuggage and Dunkley? Pace on ball is a myth. Pace on the outside is a reality.

JT seemed cold on L.Pickett. Genuine or by design?

Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves has a highlights reel of particular note. I think he will develop into an Isaac Heeney type who can play forward and midfield to a high level.

Feels like a missed opportunity for May to show he’s up for the fight and isn’t wasting a minute. I respect the players leave period and May has a young child but it would of been great to see him in at least involved in one of the three sessions.

Completely disagree with this take - Fritsch is a fantastic field kick!

About as good as we could of hoped for. Not a bad thing being off broadway when trying to adapt a new game plan under a new coach.

Gotta be Turner for me too

Plays like Salem to my naked eye.

The racecourse trust exists to create vibrant, inclusive and accessible public spaces for diverse communities. The MFC pitch is that the ovals will be available to the community when not being utilised by the club. The MFC will also attract it's supporters to the precinct who it's hoped will use spend their dollars in the area.

Looks powerful and ready to go. Shades of De Goey but also Jarrod Berry.

His messaging on Clayton in front of the camera was entirely different though? Perhaps you are right. Most likely you are. I don’t want you to be. I want to see a strong and ruthless Melbourne. I’m not giving up, and it’s not because of walking Trac but because there’s a human element to the situation with Bailey which I believe Gold Coast will at least consider resolving.

You haven’t exactly filled us with confidence regarding the potential of the father son and daughter selections

Then why say we would walk him back, it’s a fresh start under King and the coach has his back. At some point, the talk has to stop and the action has to start. I believe in King and I believe in Guerra.

If you could sell Demonland for $1M, would you rather do it now or next year 😂

Why did they bring his manager on to trade radio? There’s nothing as sexy about A 21 YO wanting to come to Melbourne as their is Essendon’s captain wanting to go their arch rival or Carlton’s two time Coleman medallist happy to play basically anywhere but Carlton. There isn’t any intel until GC relent. There are reasons that they could, should and would. To that end, the deal is live until it isn’t whether or not you think it’s high chance or not.

I’ve been travelling today and haven’t followed anything up since I heard the interview with his manager. Personally, I hope we hold onto Trac if they’re aren’t willing to release a homesick player who has real personal reasons to come home. He hasn’t been wooed by a huge contract, he’s very close with his family. Just do the right thing FFS.

In any normal scenario it would be very hard for the Suns to sell to their few thousand supporters Humphrey leaving. Having Trac inbound offsets the loss, particularly where the player is leaving for personal reasons rather than being wooed by a huge contract. It just makes sense. We also lose - he’s a generational midfielder (per Tim Lamb not me)

His managers comments. General consensus is he’s a brat and should be traded now if he’s going to pull the pin next year anyhow.

The implosion on the Suns Bigfooty is entertaining reading.

I don’t see how it isn’t obvious he wants to play for us. His manager in not so many words said as such. The fact he wants to come to Melbourne and not club X adds more weight to the request.

Oakes was considered with his wording and said everything he could without making it very difficult for his client to assimilate back at GC.
