Norm Smith's Curse

Heard today on the golf course of whispers that McAdam is considering his future and is no certainty to play on.

DOnt want to be a Debby Downer but I also heard today that McAdam is contemplating his future.

Gees Goodie is looking fit? Captain Coach?

Did we approach Cam Bruce? He has some coaching runs on the board.

This wasn't really the media though - Houston and Tracc are managed by the same management so he would have more inside info than we got.

I just hope everyone arrives with their shoes this year if we have a preseason camp!

Haha come one we fielded whole sides that were not at AFL level. Sure he is skinny, seems slow and can't kick long distances but he has a pulse!

Put last pick 9 was Sam W.

It's as impossible as Petracca to get a trade even if either player wants one.

No keen to go after he was shopped.

I heard a few weeks back that Clarry was keen to go, havent had an update since.

People who expect other people to publically name their sources are ridiculous. Ive had two sources in my time and neither of them would have stayed a source at all if I had outted them, one former employee of MFC and a guy I play golf with every fortnight who knows people through sports management. Naming the would have just strained that relationship and their own employment.

I have massive massive concerns about both Fullarton and McAdam. You can be slight if you are quick or can kick. If you can't do either of those it's a struggle.

Ive heard he cleaned out said locker due to old socks smelling.

Can't blame Lamb when we pickup no one. It was own goals that caused all that.

Andrew Brayshaw coming home?

I mean the take away narrative from that press conference was 'we were a chance to get Houston but due to our own goals and inability to manage leaks we will concentrate on pick 5'

There is one ten seconds passage I that interview where he looks like he is having a turn. I don't get how Green only says our midfield will have Petracca and Oliver in it next year, not why they had concerns, what was done to alter their situations, or any of the details. Goodwin comes out with some spiel about enjoying the process as if everything is fine. Gawn says he can't say but he is annoyed his opinion gets made public. Lambie comes out and tries to diplomatically talk for the whole club like he is personally responsible for everything, all while refusing to really explain what Petracca's issues really were or give anh details of why Oliver was discussed with other clubs. And then had to basically admit we are not a destination club. This reminds me of the time I went to a Casey game and the only drinks they had were VB cans at quarter time.

Clarry was Def open to a trade.

I think we do a clock work orange on Tracc and Clarry - make them watch the Third Quarter blitz in the 2021 grand final with those things in their eyes so they cant look away or even blink. Everything will be fine.

21 year old - is he paid as his minder?

Well they were wrong about the Clarry situation being clarified during the BNF.

What if the strategy all along was to pretend our stars are connected to big trades while secretly going for a super star? lol

Big Maxie: 'I can share my opinion – which I’m not going to share now – and in fact, I’m getting a little bit annoyed about how many of our opinions are getting out, so that is quite concerning and something we will need to address.'
