Saw Pert and Richo this week and they were heading off to a list meeting. They are all together at this time of year. Feeding all the intel back into a central place for discussion. There isn't much about other teams lists they wouldn't know about. Our guys are absolute pros

Trade Rumours 2023
The real gold is the trades where you pick up an Acres or similar for not much. I don't follow other teams that closely so not sure who would fit that bill but knowing JT they often target guys a few years out like Langdon or Lever and invest a lot of time in getting them to the Dees.

Stuff drafting a kid, poach a key forward.
Sounds like he would slot straight in at the Dees

Yze replacement
We have apparently spoken to McQ. I assume they have also reached out to Dew. I reckon either would be good

8cm in height and 30kgs in weight are fairly substantial differences. Love the Juddster but he aint a replacement for May

A small point but I think Tim Lamb heads the 'team' as the List Manager. JT is the head of Recruiting but iI believe its Lamb that carry's the can for the list as a whole.... While its collaborative it's Lamb that says 'we need a fast small fwd' and JT that finds one...

Any word on Angus?
My mail is that Angus is going well. Would not have been right for a prelim, possibly not even a granny but tests have all gone well and he is definitely keen to play on. Playing lots of golf. Good news.

Non-MFC: Finals Week 03
Despicable umpiring in every final so far . At least 11 non-decisions against Collingwood in the final quarter alone Congrats Gil you have completely stuffed the comp. You can point to crowds as I am sure you would by die hard fans are over the umpire bias/incompetence and MRO

Cool light of day
Every position is reviewed, from top to bottom along with players, game plan, strategies, list structure, salary cap. You name it. There probably isnt an organisation in the country that has more scrutiny than an AFL club.

Fairly obvious don't you think? They do one every year. Hardly likely to be public.

Campbell Brown calls the Melbourne Football Club "fragile"
This is how the media narrative works. And its not just footy. 1. John Ralph makes unsubstantiated anonymous comments from 'senior officials' at melbourne 2.Fox prints comments in their online story 3.55 different commentators who are looking for content write a story or make comments about Melbourne 'whinging', whining' their 'fragile state' etc 4. It is set in stone that Melbourne are weak mentally, are fragile etc [insert adjective] 5. Campbell Brown is a Richard 6. Media narrative created 7. Who cares
