This is undoubtedly good news It's news that gives a good vibe... we're all happy happy. We need to understand this is a case of square pegs/ round holes making the best of an awkward situation. Do I dare say Trac's been cooking...reached into the pantry and realised he's a little short of recipe requirements !! This IS good news....for now. Let's get on with things. Let's play footy. Is this over ?? I doubt it. It's over for now. Yay Go Dees

Yeah Nahhh Won't happen...

He probably laid the foundation ;)

See above 😉

Not thinking he's a sponsor ... just sayin'

He never went.... I think. Who the f nose Meanwhile in breaking news Sunbury Police are responding to....... ( what... I can't say that ?..... wtf... ) Meanwhile Romsey Bottleshop sells out of Grange....

There is something for sure in what you're saying Bing. This is but a chapter ...in a longer book

Jumped the shark... bought a happy meal, sold the magic bullet .... traded the Thermomix .. coming back for the Steak Knives ffs So... not much to see... move along 🤔😳🤷

Let's see how he plays first. Words one thing.. Actions... Over to you Christian Welcome back... umm .. did you ever go.. umm... Smoke mirrors. Brands...advertising.... all make believe eh

Never say never ;)

Equalisation never existed.. a facade impersonating it was the ruse ;)

I see where you're going here... quite fascinating. The miraculous 'loop-hope' appears and cowabunga ... This is the AFL after all... I put nothing past them ;)

Now that's a very good question... really... I'm curious 🤔

Almost... a trade simply has to suit him .... maybe not us... you've all but alluded this just before R 😉 If if transpires...it WILL be this..

Hey Christian, how're travelling mate. Sorry don't do much Socials and I reckon my cooking kicks yours to the curb ...just saying ..capische.. cya round like a gnochi ;)

Unfortunately... I can see this. Just quietly... the AFL don't care...

In my opinion, humbly.... I think quite possibly one of the reasons it's seeming hard to nail down the reasons of discontent is that in reality they're secondary. The PRIMARY factor as I'm seeing it is to advance Trac5. Am I saying there's no dissatisfaction?.. no . I'm sure we can all find and voice something about work. There's just something very wiffy about all of this. I simply think some of thus is real, some....well.... a construct to suit (😁 and it moves 😉 ) If this is just really about his brand..his "channel" ... then ... auf wiedersehen... caio baby . And we'll just see. Go Dees

Without doubt ( well in my mind ) the most pivotal person in all of this, besides Petracca himself is Max. I sense Max is one of those who you would follow out of the trenches. He seems grounded , very aware of his surroundings and his role in them. I have no idea really if Trac will stay or go, whether indeed he should stay or go but he might want to have a few more heart to hearts with Max. At the end of the day Melbourne will continue, Christian will continue. I'm really not fussed where . Us good, elsewhere, so be it. I just want this club to sort its mess out and play decent footy. We seem a very distracted, sometimes destructive place. This needs to resolve. In Max I trust..... strangely very few /others at the Club have my confidence. Interesting times ahead

I remember a mention , or someone referencing it ( not an Xer myself ). I remember it because of the emphasis placed on "family" . This I feel has been underplayed by many. The Trac story has been very family influenced over his journey and suspect still is. My thoughts go along these lines. Personally I have no time for celebrity, and total disdain for "influencers/influencing".. ppl 'influenced' must be short of grey cells imho ... Have they no self evaluation etc. To me it's like fashion, another world of stupidity. I say all that but I do get it "eXists" ...I do get it has weight. Christian is a wanna be "star"... a major "influencer" .. he is all about Brand . He gets 'influencing' but from my cheap seats the irony is he 's being more influenced than he is others. He's got his 'mrs' pushing him along, he's got his big time sporting mates from 'other sports' shining the way and he has his FAMILY getting their two bobs worth of being in his ear. They always have. I remember way back, and when that tweet popped up thinking... who's running the show..... and that's what all this is in a fashion a SHOW.. Welcome to Trac5 coming to a channel near you etc etc. For all his talent as a footballer ( though I wonder if he'll ever get back to his 100% best ) I find his positioning a worry. I'd rather a dedicated footballer than a showman giving cameos. Without doubt there are serious concerns at Melbourne, I just wonder if Petracca might be one himself. Still much to play out. I don't want this club to revolve about one person. You need 18 blokes on a field playing good footy together. Not someone more concerned about clicks.

Can you organise the paperwork Red...

He's fine. Suggest he's just not enamoured with the club or the current mess.

Bingo. Not until season truly done and dusted do the mics get switched back on. But plenty of backroom shenanigans and texting until then 😉

It's only weird if you suppose the game is played upon a level field. It isn't and hasn't been for quite a while. Look at the preferential treatment afforded certain clubs. Also consider do these same said clubs weird unequal power in the various hallways of the chambers running this circus ? Not weird at all imho. It is what it is.... by design ;)

The point I think that bears noting is he isn't ( seemingly ) self driven.
