Jaded No More

Clearly learnt nothing from the last time we played them. They’re just doing whatever they want.

As if we aren’t bad enough the umpires are helping too

We are in big big trouble. Freo just love to dominate us 🙄

Terrible start. They’re all over us thru the middle.

Confirmed sitting next to me on the couch 😭

Did he say we lost the game at selection again?

It’s for the Starlight Foundation so I’ll allow it. Fantastic charity that does a lot for very sick children.

Weather updates from the local or @WalkingCivilWar, whoever is more awake at this point 😂

Clear two hands in the back. Mark paid to Dixon. Gotta love the umpiring in Adelaide.

Yes because we really want Geelong to lose. But also I understand the conundrum.

Spewing I missed the second half Listened to the first half on the way to dinner with my girlfriend. We both toasted to a Collingwood loss. What a beautiful night!

I think they went Billings for experience. We are already carrying a lot of young players. He will undoubtedly be the sub.

It’s gonna be Clarry and our first round pick and in return we get to never play in Geelong again.

Yes Geelong have shown interest in him. Good for them. Please tell me what Geelong could possibly offer Melbourne, in order to trade a contracted Clarry? The club has no interest in trading him. Has Clarry suddenly decided he is over the club and wants to live on a farm? Because if that’s the case then Geelong is going to have to come up with a godfather offer to pry him away from our cold dead hands. I am also interested in Charlie Curnow and a million dollars.

Gold Coast always doing the most away from home

Whats happened to Brown again? He was good for Casey last week.

Well I think they don’t have a return date yet. If they say season and he doesn’t play until halfway thru next year the fans will have a meltdown. To me indefinite means we just don’t know when he will be back. I highly doubt it’s because they are leaving the door open for a return this year. Just look at this latest videos on TikTok, he looks incredibly skinny. I reckon he’s lost a heap of weight on top of muscle and conditioning.

It suggest to me that there are no guarantees of when he will return next year.

He hasn’t even started running yet. How could he possibly be back to top condition in such a short period? It’s another injury waiting to happen and a risk the club won’t take. Trac could have died. This isn’t being dramatic it’s the medical reality. He’s had two lots of internal surgeries and two lots of anesthesia.

Temu Fritta yes

This is such a valid point. Nearly every great player goes through a down year, especially coming off an interrupted pre-season or after injuries, and rarely do fans suggest to trade out that player after one poor year. I think if Clarry didn't have the pre-season he had in terms of the negative headlines, we would chalk his form down to a lack of pre season and injuries, and there would be no mention of trading him. The only reason the club would ever consider trading him is if his behaviour doesn't stack up. The club only floated the trade idea last year as a way of scaring Clarry into getting himself right off the field. It was never a serious threat, and if they didn't trade him when he was at his lowest, why would they trade him now that he's doing so well off the field? And to anyone assassinating his character, I truly hope that you or a loved one of yours never goes through any mental health battles or mental illness of any kind.

He would have never seen it coming

This is what happens when you put a Collingwood fan boy in charge of anything.

Not a Tom Morris trash talk rumour. Having said that, can’t see Port trading him and if they do the price will be higher than we can pay. Unless Petty is part of the trade.
