Tracca

Still haven’t been contacted yet about changing seats. i cancelled my reserved seats membership for me and my daughter, and have been put on a wait list for adifferent bay. No idea when they will start the call around for these

I’m sorry Dazzle but you sound like Tom Morris here. Please don’t report things as fact and as if you are in the know here. at no stage has Clayton’s family become disillusioned with the club, both Steve and Michelle Oliver have said quite the contrary. There was no blindsiding at all, Clayton’s management teed up the meeting with Stanley. understand you have heard this third hand from some random guy in Shepparton which is not really near Echuca, but you are reporting this as if it’s fact. Your knowledge around draft and u18s is outstanding, but you’ve missed the mark here. Said it before but the personal connection I have with the family, your source couldn’t be more wrong. pert on the other hand I believe will be gone.

That’s weird because I know Michelle Oliver quite well, she works with my mum and has said quite the opposite and the family love Melbourne and Clayton wanted to keep his options open. There has been no disgruntlement ever

will find out soon enough i guess. but lots of people spoke glowingly of him last night

i felt like he did have a few Shandys thats for sure lol

lots of people spoke well of Pert. So im not buying the commentary around him trying to shop Clayton

its not me with any loyalty to the club, i simply said there is no way a CEO of football has done the ring around. there is numerous, 3+ player management roles within the club, and the CEO is definitely not one of them

Again you are jumping to conclusions. Let’s wait and see what happens tonight then happy to stand next to you with pitchforks

Hang on a sec….. where did you hear we did the call around? That is all driven from the media. There is zero chance Gary pert called anyone about list management decisions.

Whilst I agree with you re all of this, remember all of this is from the media, none of it is fact…….yet

Clayton literally shared his interview from the deebrief as well. The part about trac and coming back to pre season with the dees. So does that mean he is staying now does it?

How are we pathetic? apart from not feeding into the media [censored], nothing has changed from the last day of the season until now. What if we were never trading Clayton? This is all a media beat up, until the club speaks tonight and if claz is there we should all take a deep breath. agreed our PR team are useless but let’s hold our horses here and not shoot the club for not responding to rumours just yet

My take is the external review has said get rid of bad apples. And we have told clarry to start looking around

hes not going anywhere , and has never said anything of the kind

I went for a job interview/meeting with another company, not necessarily to go for the job, but to find out what they are like, how they work, whos who ,and just to see if there is something there. There wasnt. Clarry is more than entitled to do that if Geelong have said come for a chat we may be a club you could be interested in if something were to happen. I dont think there is any harm at all in that.

much happier going to the draft. we could get another mcadam with pick 37... stuff that. Logan Morris was pick 31. use them all

thank god we did, imagine getting pantsed by Darcy Fort in a grand final

I wonder if you are the bloke with his family that sits next to me lol. we had these 4 kids behind us that were pies supporters. M53

i rang today as well to change my reserved seats, the lady said i have to go onto a waiting list again, not sure if this is normal or not, but i told her if i cant change my seats ill cancel my membership cause im not even sitting in a designated dees spot, its basically a few rows of dees members and then reserved public seating. last year it was fantastic, this year we have had so many close calls to knocking opposition supporters out who think its their right to sit in someone elses reserved seat. lots of fun but im gettingtoo old for this now. give me a dees bay anyday

Whilst it was frustrating and scary for 3 weeks there, internally trac and the coaching group were not worried and what he had literally publically said is demanded professionalism on and off the field. Any die hard fan that has been upset because they have listened to the media vitriol around holding the club to ransom which is total bs, needs to take a deep breath

hahah this is fantastic

but he hasnt put himself before the club at all? he voiced dissapointment with the clubs direction, of which a president has already stood down because of it, with more to come. id say its a good thing

The only noise about brand Petracca was from the media. Trac said in his statement it was about change within the club that he was unhappy about. Let’s see how this plays out. The president is already gone, and I dare say there is a few more that will be gone too. dont hang trac out to dry because we were too impatient to hear from him

that he was never leaving? he had plenty of other suitors

Nah I saved it from those nutbags, just.... was getting harrassing phone calls for at least 2 years. I kept it going albet it was a niche group of us chatting, I wanted to keep tims legacy going for as long as possible. Then decided it was time to just let it go and have Demonland as the main source of forum chat. The segregation of members and community is exactly what happened with our cheer squads years ago, didnt want that to continue. And am glad i shut it down for that reason as there is a lot of posters that have come back to land.
