Very Jaded

I don't see the big deal with Adelaide dropping Rachele. He's a young player, and the Crows obviously have given him things to work out that he isn't doing. It could be things that to the naked eye are impossible to judge, like two way running or pressure acts etc. It's definitely not unusual for a young player, especially one in a role where it is difficult to always be making an impact, to be dropped. I highly doubt they would even entertain trading him.

For his sake I hope he gets a deal somewhere else where he can be best 22. While not a perfect player by any means, he's certainly good enough to play more regularly than he has with us.

Thank you @WalkingCivilWar as always. Your training reports are one of the few truly fun and positive reads on Demonland. And a special thank you from me to you for all the love you've shown Clarry!

When Woey was traded to Collingwood I was still in high school. My best friend at the time was also a mad Melbourne supporter and Woey was her favourite player. When he was traded, she no joke took a week off school because she was so distraught. She was hysterical. He used to be my neighbour, and she went to his house and left him a note to say how upset she was he was leaving. It was giving stalker energy. I have lost touch with her many moons ago, but whenever I see Taj running around I think of her and wonder if she's smiling watching another Woewodin run around in red and blue.

Oh ffs Did any of these clowns stop and think that maybe, just maybe, Trac was putting on a happy face and telling his teammates he was doing ok when asked? How many people do you know who put on a smile, while deep down they’re struggling?! It is entirely plausible that Trac felt a sense of responsibility to maintain the upbeat tone that he’s so well known and loved for amongst his teammates. It’s entirely possible that when his mates asked how he’s doing, and of course they did, he said he’s fine. Maybe he wasn’t ready to tell them how badly he was struggling, or maybe he didn’t know himself how badly he was struggling either, until he had time to process.

Sure, but where does Carlton get 2 first round picks from, including one in the top 7? Their future first is not worth a punt either. Plus they have to convince McKay to leave. He’s got like 6 years left on his deal too.

Would have to trade one of McKay Curnow or Walsh as part of the deal to free cap space. I can’t see it happening

I asked a genuine question. Who has come to the party with a trade that would satisfy the club? Surely you were told something to make you believe he's as good as gone.

If he doesn't have his charge reduced at the appeals board, then I reckon you are spot on 🙃

Or is that a negative?

So who came to the party with 3 top 10 picks?

Thank you Staff. It was the get together at your house that, if you believe Max, changed the course of history for this club and propelled us to win a flag. You have been instrumental in achieving that premiership, and will forever be a MFC great for doing so. Wishing you all the very best in the future.

He was wearing the wrong black and white stripes

Absolute tragedy. RIP Sam.

Christian Petracca endorsed this news on social media. Good enough for me

And Petty up forward, oh my!

Does it take one to know one? Asking for Jack.

I have no doubt they did. Doesn’t mean they told you the truth. I’ve been told plenty of BS from people in the know too.

It was. I was told he failed the medical. Goes to show you how inaccurate info spreads.

Where the hell did I say that? I asked a question relating to the timing of the visit and how it got past the media. Comparing Trac to Lycett is laughable btw. At no point did I say it shouldn’t be posted. Only that if you post rumours you should be prepared to have them questioned. You can post what you want but if there’s no proof then prepare to be questioned for it.

Incoming meltdowns that we gave him too many years in 3...2...1.... Well done Jack. Never in doubt. Red and blue forever.

I hope it's also a celebration of Maynard getting a well deserved smack down.

I'm quite partial to Paris in the spring. Kosi and I are therefore both leaving.

I hope Punt Road End's server is big enough to handle a daily ALL CAPS meltdown about his non selection

Is your coriander Kade Chandler approved?
