I've been told that Petty has said no and I'm standing by that.

@Bombay Airconditioning isn't the only person on the planet who rather take Duursma than Reid. I am another.

No I believe we warmed up because Collingwood went cold thinking they can now get Schultz. He's a great ball user and he's played some really high level footy, just not for a few years. It's a genuine no brainer for mine but he's also not in the mould of the 'Melbourne contest and defence' players out list team seem to love.

Id love Jack Billings. Seems like a good culture guy and can seriously play. Just needs some love. Can't see why we aren't pushing forward with this.

I do get the sense that will be the case. However, he will be at Melbourne in 2024.

I have spoken to my contact at the club. Petty and his management met with Adelaide around 3 weeks ago. They put together a presentation based around him returning to defence. Petty ultimately said no. The dust settled. Adelaide have come back with an increased offer after Doedee's decision and Petts manager has told them he won't be leaving Melbourne this trade period. We definitely have our work cut out for his long term commitment.

Apparently some mild interest in Billings

Steven May has been hospitalised overnight but unsure on why. Hopefully the club let us know.

Megan Waters from Yokayi Show. Don't think she's actually a Melbourne supporter.

Deakyn Smith in an upset win.

Can confirm McQualter has joined

We were sold the projects background as the reason behind her sudden promotion to the role because they didn't want to release the truth around the breakdown of the former Pres and the entire executive. I think they've less head way in the last three years with more resources to get it moving. All eggs are supposedly now in the Caulfield basket. The club know that making finals, despite not winning them, means there is less pressure broadly on the need for an immediate solution.

What an absolutely stellar appointment by Richmond.

Duursma could be the rolls royce we are lacking.

I never really hear too much about the draft but I have heard we'd really love to take Zane Duursma. Though it looks likely he'll be taken before our first pick unless we can slide up.

How did you go at the top level?

Kozzy & Toby would of been the two to prioritise with AMW developing.

Just read an interview with Bedford where he said he now feels valued and the team appreciate the small things he does - or words to that affect. I still find it astounding that we put 7 years into Toby's development, only to let him slip through the cracks when he was on the cusp of a break out. It's truly painful given we could have done so more.

Denver Grainger Barras is available if we wanted some KPD cover in the event that Tommo leaves.

The games first ever legend.

Never missed an MCG game until recently. So important we got that flag for him. Thoughts with his family. Lets hope it galvanises our beautiful football club.

Absolutely devastated to learn of Ron's passing today. He is Melbourne football club. ♥️

It's never really appropriate to compare the men's and women's but Hanks kicking is better than any of our males.
