Sure mate. I did mine 25 years ago so good luck with that. I don’t remember much

You’re asking someone to bother summarising 282 pages of thread because you haven’t kept up. It’s kind of a lot to unpack mate

Without being silly about it, we have to give a list spot to someone. We will have massive turnover this year as it is, have to keep some of them!

This 100%. Now is the time sadly. I was receptive to moving Oliver and Petty last year and taking six first rounders to the draft last year which, in hindsight, might have avoided a few of the problems we’ve currently got but might have made some worse. We just have to get used to this kind of rapid fire player movement and put together a decent environment so we can make it work for us the other way - Increased player movement isn’t a one way street.

One last thing and this applies to Nibbler too - if you’re that keen to get home, demanding to go a single club is a bit rich. If you’re prioritising family, then a job’s a job and you can’t care that much where you do it.

Richmond have plenty. We’ll have the two thanks chaps and you can have the one.

Go for Harley. Kozzie is clearly gone at some point and West Coast are all over the shop - no way Harley says no to coming home at some stage. Boom, we have our Trac replacement and about a million draft picks. The family thing is real. Frequent interstate trips to see them aren’t helpful - they’re actually a giant pain and doesn’t help with the day to day support young parents can need.

Methinks head office has had enough of this rubbish and is sending its mouthpiece out accordingly

Um, yes, was an attempt at satire

Bet that will be a walk in the park for her.

Rumour has it Pick 5 asked to be traded at its exit meeting this week

Just a really nice guy, always had time for a chat when we were at our local coffee shop at the same time. Wish him nothing but the best, and he deserved better from us.

Yeah, maybe don’t open the AFL app today if you’re already upset about Kozzie

Stopping it before it got out of hand would be one option they could have gone with

Not sure. i think clubs will be so dazzled by the idea of having him that they will talk themselves into thinking it’s a Melbourne thing not a Trac thing, and that it will go away when he moves. Good luck to them

This is astounding. If remotely true it sounds like he’s basically lost the plot

Depressingly true

God, why would they do that to themselves? I’d have thought the club would install parental controls on their phones or something with a block on fan sites lol

Jesus wept, get a grip. Greg Wells is as big a departure as Christian Petracca?

Not sure if serious. Please tell me you aren’t

Oh yeah because competing with Cripps instead will definitely be easier

Yes.

He’s not thinking about you mate

Was Tim Kelly 3 x firsts? I can’t remember. If so, that’s surely our baseline

That’s not what I said. He’s one of the best players I’ve seen at Melbourne in my lifetime, and certainly one of the biggest game changers. But if we wants to leave, and we think he might not ever recover to his absolute best, then we should absolutely let him and sell high
