Tommy with more scary scary stuff. Tommy is a bit of a nuff nuff Donr be like Tommy

Bodes well.. A new lease 👍

Unfortunately John.. we haven't lost perspective at all. We're just voicing it.

I dont think this is given enough weight. If.. and I wish to emphasise IF... there was some sort of schism surrounding Tracc and others then this can not be reduced by the current events. Bit like trying to unsee something. You just get the idea that lots of rods have been made for many backs. The Melbourne that exists today thats evolved out of the mess that we've been is more than likely a different animal to the one that created the situation that predicated Tracc to where he is now. I truly wonder if someone's mindset wasn't quite firmed up some time ago. Im guessing of course 🤔

Someone is leading this merry dance. ( hint...not King ) Tracc knew when King might become available for a chat. If it was his preference to clear the air and reformatva position at Melbourne..... wouldn't you wait... talk... think about... 🤔 .. then maybe get on planes ?? Tracc's priority is Tracc

But Luci... it IS just that... justa game... he's just a player. He's not the Messiah, not even a naughty boy. It's just Petracca looking out for Petracca. Personally I'm more concerned and interested about Melbourne. He doesn’t seem to be wanting anything more to do with us. That's fine. I also am not in the camp that thinks he's the difference ( for us ) between a flag or not. I dont think its either the club nor most of us here who are making the 'song and dance' about it all. But put yourself on a stage, you will be critiqued. We're only watching the opening shows but I bet the rehearsals have been going on for some time.

Id be disappointed... but wouldn't blame the bloke. His job is to coach not to poach.

I understand the comparison but for mine they're different animals. I would be absolutely gobsmacked if Tracc ever played for us again. He hasn't ventured on his "Aussie Tour" to just look... he's out and about to BUY .

Definitely something to this... how much weight.. no real idea. But it does fit in with the whole "brand persona" . Look i really dont care if this is him or not. My evaluation of players is really only that which they bring to the team, our game , dynamics, synergy etc. I already can cook so he's really not that interesting to me other than footy. Canada is often described as 9 Provinces ...and Quebec. Melbourne.... a team of players and Tracc. You either get it or not.

You think he might not like the company of his wife. A long time on flights.. The amount of time actually touring facilities and/or yakking to ppl specifically about offers would be minimal compared to travel time etc. Hell,, it ain't all work on these junkets 😉 Time to take in a nice restaurant or this or that. I don't see the big deal personally. Don't you like your wife or something Daz ? 🤣🤣

This has underpinned Melbourne's pick upgrades for a few years now.

The $$$ has gone up. We either up our ante or look elsewhere. I dont think we need to match top whack.... but probably need to sweeten our position.

The only use of getting a few relative 'prime' picks would be to use them to go buy a player. We need players.... some good ones.

Or you can 🚁

He can stand in line behind half of dland...

Might be on a good bet there ....

Reinvention on the fly.... Stories of convenience.. The only hard facts about the 🎪🤡🎪 is what you see at the END !!

It could be announced tomorrow... ( it won't be ) No one's training in it for 2 years. Right atm its irrelevant to anyone playing in 26/27

As a contrivance. Not the real issue or cause. Wasn't any lack of facilities...more a lack of factories... ones making brown paper bags 😉

Character assassination ?? Character....correction ?? 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

I dare say folk forget how this game is played

It's fine.... we found a problem with the bilge pump. Our best ppl are working on it as I write. Been some talk about too many lazing around on the poop deck but those at work in the focsle assure me we'll avoid the icebergs... Some wally carping on about him being the King of the world or some such is hatching a plan.... all good 👍 😉

I think a lot of ppl are only looking as far as the waves lapping the shore. The 🎪 🤡 🎪 is only rehearsing at present. The top line acts have yet to get into the ring. Dont be dismayed by the picks that are obvious and by that the ones clubs have currently... let the mind wander. Once trading really starts those magnets will be chucked around like a 5yo on the Rotor. Going to be more fun than the Mad Mouse after a thick-shake It's not about deals that CAN be done today....its going to be the deals that are enabled .....later. Of course many will be distraught by then... but thats all part of the show. Pray continue....
