Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver in 2026
Worst ?? I suppose as you relate to available talent...it would have to be up there. I've been through seemingly worse. Any which way its a total bust and worse than last year. Learnings ? Reckon we've learnt enough 😉 The wash up is my only real interest now and how a few players progress. I think what happens to the likes of Tracc and Ollie will/ might depend on what goes down at eos. A lot of players will need to renew their buy in... but begs the question...buy into what and whom ?? 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️

Farewell Judd McVee
Im only taking one aspect seriously. He HASN'T signed. No reason not to.... ( that we know of ) Why ? Doesn’t matter whose scuttlebutt is aired... the fact remains he's unsigned. Strikes me as odd and a concern.... irrespective of anyone's assurances

Can't recall where from but that rings a bell.- Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver in 2026
Throw in a PowerPoint pie chart and presentation and i reckon you're probably close.- Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver in 2026
One way or another eos interviews are going to be crackers!!- Welcome to Demonland: Jai Culley
Maybe we'll wait till then... cheers- Time to go Goody?
Well said you 👏- Welcome to Demonland: Jai Culley
There will never be another Gus. Hopefully Jai matures into a very handy player and finds his own style and effectiveness. He looks OK out there- Caroline Wilson’s article 2 August 2025
Thats a fair comment. I haven't said he's the best going around. But he's ours... luckeeee club 😉- Caroline Wilson’s article 2 August 2025
It's very interesting how elections are presented. Also what candidates can and can't do... and on and on.- Caroline Wilson’s article 2 August 2025
But not sufficiently to have given him the job?? Odd situation really. Very Melbourne- Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver in 2026
It happens. 😞- PREGAME: Rd 22 vs Western Bulldogs
I've actually maintained we might be better this week than some suspect. 2 particular things of interest to me. Can the zest and verve created by a few inclusions and moves of magnets be maintained. Can we hold up 4 qtrs against teams hell bent on denying us our 4 pts . We shall see i guess- PREGAME: Rd 22 vs Western Bulldogs
And we did so by thumping the BOTTOM teams, undermanned at that and whose only carrot is 'another' pick. Yet all you mention are actually valid observations. And I'll be interested ( really ) to see how those metrics go this week against a team motivated by finals. Hopefully not too many team changes and we can have another look at this (our ) setup. Looking forward to it. No expectations, just interest.- Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver in 2026
It would be quite logical ( from an outside perspective ) for Reid to move. I sense we haven't even begun to see the outrageous silliness of the Circus main tent yet. The Big Top begets big contracts. Im not thinking the Sqawkers would tip ALL their shekels into one basket..There might be internal resistance to that. Such being possibly the case Tracc ( or similar ) might be more attractive. Time, as they say will tell. Christian may well end up staying... but he'll be on a few clubs "interest-list" .- PREGAME: Rd 22 vs Western Bulldogs
Can we actually do it though ? Certainly an idea 👍- PREGAME: Rd 22 vs Western Bulldogs
The truth sucks huh !!- Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver in 2026
No real idea tbh. It's that funny time of year where the landscape morphs from what at a distance looks like immovable, impenetrable rock to fragmented and unstable . Some players won't even realise atm they will appear in different jumpers next season such is the speed and surprise of the Circus. , Very poignant that you ask WHAT and not WHO . We're short on currency currently. We need some for f/s ( before that goes ) as well as the draft ( before we're shut out by Tassie ) So yes.. WHAT is Tracc worth and to whom ?? Roll.up... roll up...- Caroline Wilson’s article 2 August 2025
I can see and will wear that critique. There is a caveat. And that's how anyone arrives at the room. There are those of the secret squirrel wink-wink handshake brigade who only interest is their own....and there are those who genuinely want to futher the club. Both have red and blue blood arguably. However one is selfish and the other selfless. I'd prefer the latter. There is a difference- BEST AND WORST by Whispering Jack
The club may wish to take heed of Dickens elsewhere... "The most important thing in life is to stop saying 'i wish' and start saying 'I will'- Caroline Wilson’s article 2 August 2025
Im not too fussed where the CEO comes from. You want acumen over pedigree. As to Board Members... you want the best of anyone ( who blood is red and blue ) I'd always be wondering .. why be a Melb Board member...if you're not 110% Dinky Di Dee 🤔- Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver in 2026
Thankyou. Feeling in me waters we might be seeing his last games in R&B - Welcome to Demonland: Max Heath
