Calling all pre-season track watchers ...
Heartily agree even though I am only 3 hours away.

Realistic 23 for 2026
If the new forward structure does not include Harrison Petty. Then the competition between him and May will be interesting and might make him a player. Then again he might be let go next year for a round one pick and May retires, and we start again as per Saturday night live Very interesting

Grading the Trade Week
Can someone who might be keeping track of movements of players work out How many places do we need to fill and what picks we might use 7 & 8. 37. Plus two rookies ? Does that take our compliment up to full ? Thanks

Grading the Trade Week
OK is our result, we did pay a penalty for inaction or wrong decisions after 2021. Probably understandable as we all looked at the cup . After such a long time. But we as a club stuffed up back then. We need jason Taylor to stay with us sign him up for another 4 or 5 years

Farewell Christian Petracca
Well a new dawn after a disappointing outcome, feel as bad as losing Barassi, so long ago. Wish both players well, I can follow Jesse more often now. I think both will be motivated for 2026, do very well, then fall into bad habits again. Both getting close to their use by date, the fault of MFC for the long contracts. We did well in dealing with one, pilloried and crucified the other, We need JT to do a lot of work and to sign for a few more years. Bring on 2026 Go Dee's

AFL Draft 2025: Picks 7 & 8
So this would mean no bid on Dean until pick 10. Yes ? Is it easier for Carlton if this occurs . We would not want to be charged with collusion I hope we can get one great kid and the other a workhorse if it is a poor draft. 2 champs like last year very doubtful

Farewell Clayton Oliver
Peanuts. We gave him away for nuthin bloody peanuts , He must have done something significantly wrong More than bending wipers and [censored] on car door handles , Who hasnโt done that ! Tell me it wasnโt as bad as [censored] Carey at norf. Sad. Very sad day

Farewell Clayton Oliver
I think the player management by the club in this instance. To allow the situation to deteriorate to this extent is appalling . We are losing a 4 times Bluey winner premiership winner for what return and paying how much in salary Appalling does not do it justice ,

Oliver Florent
Sam Kerr definitely would

Training Ground?

Yes I think so as well- Farewell Charlie Spargo
Premiership player, Could only ask you to kick 5 metres further, but nothing more than that. Wish you well at North, must give your old man a thrill !- Farewell Christian Petracca
You never know they might win 23 games in two years. Better than what we were doing ! Still disappointed if we lose Oliver !- Welcome to Demonland: Brody Mihocek
I think this allows us to extend the time in years left for Melksham, Play one or the other, perhaps both against certain other players, I doubt they will both play every game in 2026. BM was my hope 3 months ago, reading stuff later not so sure, but we have what we have. And it will not be 1.3m for 4 years, Better than a pick 72 in the draft.- Farewell Clayton Oliver
are you putting your hand up to do a better job ? I know I would not want any of those jobs. I only have a little bit of hair left now and its grey !- Bailey Humphrey
Then we should not blink, let the AFL sweeten the pie !- Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver in 2026
Blimey derkson must be a fantastic player How many games has he played in the last 3 years- Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver in 2026
Must say, I will be disappointed if we lose both (5 and 13) players. Could handle one going. But in the end both contracts were too high for just a little too long and perhaps (?). Its happened at other clubs sometimes it works sometimes it does not. I would like to keep Clarry, he obviously does not like reporters ! So he is probably not leaking.- Imploding
His intercept then pass to Fritta. Started that comeback. We were heading down a Dark hole before that. After that pure gold. James was a great demon that day- Steven King interview SEN 2.10.2025
Thanks from me. Cannot get SEN.- Training Ground?
Itโs possible the design has partly commenced the staring point is to know where all existing drainage lines are and what direction it runs. Presumably into those old ponds that were there 50 years ago. All old stuff needs to be deactivated and the new work placed Then the top levels can begin. It is not rocket scientist stuff.- Training Ground?
The design of drainage is critical design then of the oval surface and walking tracks can proceed slower But total design COULD be completed within 6 months. Construction of two ovals might take 9 months but the laying and consolidation if the turf to an acceptable standard is dependant on weather , soil type, grass type and could be left to consolidate without use for 6 months easily. None of this is difficult , design of buildings and facilities much harder, but two ovals pretty simple by comparison . Depends on how much cash is tossed in that direction. But itโs possible though doubtful that preseason 2027 could be partly there. If they start tomorrow - Bailey Humphrey
