Great question!

Pretty much exactly how I would have expected the club to act with him right now.

I think the edit feature disappears after 24 hrs!

If he signs a two year deal with us though is it just a 'pre-contract' for Freo? We'll get to this time next year with a Horne Francis scenario where there's a year to go but he may want out. Obviously a lot can happen in that time though and he might meet a nice young lass or just realise Melb is the pinnacle of the universe.

Billy Dwight you are king of Geelong Demonland

Yeah I think the quiet chats with LJ have done their dash..

I'd probably say a ruckman in the mould of Nankervis but much much better.

I'm in

Hopefully you'll read it for this reply to your post at least.

It has been good value that's for sure.

Feel like I've had the biggest caffeine hit this morning after this news.

This thread should get a workout today!

Cheers for that. It's a real balancing act and something you can see teams prioritising when it comes to getting the right coaches for it.

Good egg!

You deserve a lot of credit my friend!

I mentioned briefly yesterday that although he said he would decide at the end of the season, no-one was going to be upset, disappointed or throw him in jail if he came out and re-signed earlier. It was a big decision to make, I feel he spoke the truth there. The stay factor ended up carrying plenty of weight and that isn't at all surprising.

And it protects the club so if they ever do want to leave which could happen one day, then it's all in the club's hands.

Gonzo we can watch this to our heart's content today with a smile!

Love you Gorg! ❤️

Quite a few here bought the silly smokescreen interview but I love you all anyway! Go Gus!

I'm sure we'll be doing our due diligence on all players like Amiss and others that could potentially be part of a deal. Have only had limited vision of Amiss but he seems like more of a leading/separation forward and not really a contested mark. We've got a few of those already but he could also be a decent long term prospect.

Is there any kind of ruling on handballing to yourself? Like does the handball need to hit hit the deck or a teammate to be considered a legitimate handball? I appreciate your take on this Macca and we should definitely aim to play team sport in the fairest manner possible. There will always be some loopholes and 'cheat codes' that players take advantage of and it will never be perfect but as long as we're doing our best to get the blatant cheating out of the game then that's all we can ask.

I'd buy that on Pay Per View. Sort of reminds me of that show in the 90s Celebrity Deathmatch!

Interesting! I'd love to get a look at some of those studies Deenooos. Are they available online? They've had the media blowtorch on them all week this week. Questioning their pressure levels, some even suggesting they pick and choose when to make efforts now. I really hope this lights the biggest fire under their A***s this Friday.
