Very Jaded

To be fair I think we should acknowledge the trauma he went thru. Thinking you’re going to die, having surgery without anesthesia, being in isolation, having complications and then also needing to have your appendix removed, is incredibly traumatic. And like Gus and Clarry, Trac has a lot of his identify tied up in football, so to have it taken away for such a long period of time would be very difficult. I hate the way he/his team have gone about this, but I also think that being alone with your thoughts is a dangerous thing sometimes. Feeling scared, weak, and vulnerable would heighten emotions, especially for someone already so emotional. And just as he might blow up quickly, he might also calm down quickly. I’m of middle eastern descent, I know a thing or two about being a hot head. Italians are the same. I think in time he will regret his handling of this situation, just as I’m sure the club has regrets of their own. There are definitely two sides to this and both would have valid arguments. In the end there are no winners if Trac insists on leaving. We all want to see our club succeeds and there’s no doubt Trac playing good footy for the MFC makes that more of a possibility.

I think being a 20 year long joke bring them down a notch personally

Isn’t it a shame that the filth traded their first round pick for Shultz 😁😁😁 Pies could never get a trade done, unless they’re willing to trade Nick Daicos.

Morris clearly has direct contact to either Trac or his team. I hate that smarmy misogynist, and there’s probably more to it, but the fact that he chose to discuss what appears to be very fixable problems, is interesting. Sounds like Trac and his team have realized there’s no chance a trade will happen, so they’re softening their positioning as to, in Morris’ words, not walk back with tail between the legs.

Really hope he announces his retirement early enough in the week so he can be honored on Friday night. Same goes for Tmac IF he chooses to retire, which I hope is not the case! Will the club also do something to say thanks to Nibbler?

Yeah seriously, what would the point of the move be? He spent years in a rock bottom Melbourne team, experienced success, and now he is walking out to return to the bottom? The likelihood of North winning a flag before he retires are close to zero. It would be a different story if a contender was chasing him, but I can’t see him leaving for an extra year or more money at this point in his career. Not with the strong connections and history he has to our club. He’s not just a bit player, he’s our VC and he’s got a family legacy here.

Surely this is not true. Also if Pert lives in Noosa, he should have been over to Trac’s place every night singing him a lullaby. Not letting resentment fester.

So basically, our poor communication has led to everyone spitting the dummy, Trac and teammates. Whoever is responsible for that needs to have their head on the chopping block. How could you let [censored] fester to the point where it explodes and you have a player of Trac’s quality wanting out? But as the panel says, the likelihood that any team has anything even remotely worthy to give us in a trade for Trac, especially a team he wants to play for, are close to 0. Looks like a long summer of building bridges and mending broken egos.

Wasn’t he there? @WalkingCivilWar was Hunter on the GC?

George is definitely going to be our new social media manager and going by Louie’s size, I reckon he will be lining up in the ruck as early as 2028. Now we just need a FF and a FB.

Thank you and all the DA members for all the amazing work that you do in supporting our club, no matter what.

He liked it too, just couldn’t fit it on the same screenshot

Yeah pretty deluded to think the club came to Max yesterday and were like “Max we need some good news, want to sign for 3 more years please?” I am sure this decision has been discussed between Max and Jess and the club for weeks if not months.

I have no doubt there are clauses in his contract relating to serious injuries @Binmans PA I don’t think he would want to rehab another ACL, but my god he’s a resilient man. His ability to recover and play injured is remarkable. Would anyone even suspect he was playing with a fractured ankle the last two weeks?

That’s worse than Baby Shark At least get on the GWS bop Leo.

I haven’t seen anyone say anything except “please stay” or “please come to x club because that’s who I barrack for and I’m a loser” 😂

Totally fine to have a different opinion. But he literally inferred that Gawn is a poor leader for extending for 3 years and not going year by year, and collecting a paycheck, which is a [censored] take and completely bloody unnecessary for a warrior of our footy club! It’s never what you say, but how you say it. In a week where our club has been in the news for all the wrong reasons, would it kill supporters to be happy about some positive news?

Look who liked Gawn’s post of his re-signing Paging @H_T

Where’s the pile on on Collingwood? From premiers to missing the 8. So sad.

He was swimming on the farm doing recovery and the girls were watching on

Can I suggest that you go barrack for St Kilda? I reckon it’ll suit you.

He liked a post that Viney made earlier today. But let’s not make this yet another thread about Petracca.

Are you seriously ok? Gawn with 1000 injuries (1000, really?) is the best goddamn ruckman in this game, by a very large margin too. He is currently ranked better than in any other year of his career. He’s also a brilliant leader. What the [censored] sort of idiotic take is this? You don’t think this man can contribute to our club for another 3 years? Both on field and off the field? Would he not be an amazing mentor to all the young guys coming thru, especially in the ruck? [censored] go away!

Jack Viney liked the post 🧐

Congratulations on the literal sh!ttest take of the season.
