Operational and FD Jade. Green wanted this review from August 10 when I first mentioned it here and he got what he wanted. Rightly so.

She delivered the premiership but she never delivered the new facility. Ultimately that is why she joined the board. Green will only preside over the review and will hand the reins over afterwards.

Have been told in the past we like Davenport from GWS but haven’t heard anything specific.

Wish him well. Believe that will be at Richmond FC

Silly Saturday

ANB trained in match sim with Casey players yesterday so may be rested. No other changes on the horizon except for a new sub to replace Melk. It may be Laurie or Woey who both trained well in the white team.

An inherently fair and respected journalist. Will be missed. Rest in Peace 😭

Expect that a contract extension, adding 1 more year to his existing, is very close to being announced for Vines 👏

Houston, we have a problem!

Correct. They asked the question. He's happy.

Gee he would be a handy pick up. We’re talking with him.

The review will not include Alan Richardson who I believe is role has been questioned.

It has tonight been decided that a review will be undertaken post season to ensure we have the staff most capable of maximising the talent within the club. It is believed there is a lot of player support behind the current regime but there are others associated with the club who believe changes are neccesary.

We have spoken to his manager about this for 2026 and I'm certain there is a level of mild interest in him playing for Melbourne but he's said that he's very very happy at Freo. His Victorian partner and he have a place in East Freo. She's happy too.

Believe Windsor will miss with injury

Forget about it

We have lobbied for additional room at Melbourne Park as the Rebels exit and have been told to get do one. The Storm & Victory will be able to expand their footprint and rightly so given they play out of and train permanently at the facility and aren't actively looking to exit.

I don't get as much intel as I once did but the last thing I heard is that Petty is keen to get back to Adelaide.

Looking forward to playing Luke McDonald into form as is the MFC way.

All roads lead to El Hawli if he hasn't been selected before our pick.

Is it any worse than Howes, Rivers (overrated kick), TMac or Billings? Worth a look IMO.

Andy Moniz Wakefield deserves a chance.

Oliver ANB Kozzy Woewodin McVee Bowey.

Hearing its a Tom Fullarton debut that is on the cards.

Trac Viney ANB Sparrow Gawn Windsor HM - Woewodin for a terrific last quarter.
