Demon Disciple

Appoint him as Forward line coach

Big ego pants maybe?

He’s smartly biding his time. At this rate he’ll be the only player wanting to stay with us and we need to spend a minimum $ of our cap. Last one remaining gets 100% of the cap. Genius really.

Knowing pick 5’s luck, we’ll trade down just to get him.

I heard that Trac became disenchanted with Josh when he kept referring to his sauce of choice as Mariner.

I’d have him starting at CHF before all that.

Well if it's Trac then im all at sea, but what a thriller it would be!

I'd be looking at Malcolm Rosas even with Kozzie (he better [censored] be staying) still with us, the ball comes out way too easily once it hits the deck. Gotta get more pressure on the ball.

Picking him up in the mid-season draft and then cutting him not 4 months later just would not make sense, especially for a big bloke in a position we are desperate to fill. Gotta give him at least a year (probably should be 2 imo) and an off season to actually physically develop as well as learn our 'systems'.

I interpreted that interview as her being completely out of her depth as president. She has ridden the coattails of her predecessor and the success he, PJ & Roos built up for 3 years now, and its been on a negative trajectory since the 2021 GF. She's gotta go, so too Pert, Richardson and the coach. Not bad for 3 years after a flag.

Kate has stated that she doesn't think we need an external review on afl.com.au Wow, I wonder why she thinks that, what is she trying to hide? Now i definitely think we need one https://www.afl.com.au/news/1207361/melbourne-demons-president-kate-roffey-denies-stand-off-with-injured-superstar-christian-petracca

No, but refusal to accept reality and not make necessary changes can be and often is worse.

Will we even be able to name a 22 come round 1 next year?

We’re starting to get desperate if that’s the case.

100% this. Leadership under Roffey and Pert has gone belly up. Both need to go and pronto.

Trac’s apparent actions have made me become pretty disenfranchised with him. If it is indeed his ‘brand’ that he’s most concerned with, he has done a pretty good job damaging it himself afaic.

Don’t want McKay. Trac for Curnow & Walsh please

Up until 3 months ago that was Trac to a T

Does anyone here seriously think Trac will be in red & blue next year? Too much has occurred and trust will have been broken with the club and playing group with Christian. The damage is done.

Agree with his last line.

Any chance of getting an EGM? because like many on here, I feel as a 30+ year member I am entitled to some answers. We need transparency now more than ever.

Thing is, we’re responsible for closing said era. All through being naive, ignorant and complacent.

Trac will play more good football no doubt, but at 29 he’s at the peak if not slightly passed his best football. As much as it would hurt to see him go, it would help fasten our “rebuild” and if we look too offload Trac, then clearly we are in rebuild mode. Where would that leave the club with Clarry? Pick 5, plus a few more juicy picks, could certainly launch our new midfield brigade. And I’d much rather leaders of Gawn and Viney showing them the ropes, than the likes of Trac and Clarry, who are immature by comparison.
