  1. Of course he didnt go to talk to Freo. thats people trying to connect dots that dont exist. im sure he went home to visit family and friends in this day and age you dont have to fly to freo to discuss ontracts. still think hes gone but his visit got whipped up by the media
  2. "It's not my thought process at all. It's not really a money thing, it's just (about) where I want to be." gone
  3. With the points you made, you are right- it makes no sense. wjat you didn't include was the draw of family, an intangible that depending on the individual is impossible to measure in dollars
  4. Him going to Perth probaly has nothing to do with the eventual decision. A distraction from the real considerations.
  5. I think the club also know he's gone but it was agreed by all parties to not announce it until the end of year. It's not in the clubs or jesses interests to play the year with that info public. the line "delay till after season" has been used to get us to trade week where a deal will be done without the media drama of a season out committing to leave the MFC. tjeres no way MFC haven't at this stage put their best offer forward. Thats the point that the "he's staying" camp conveniently gloss over
  6. I firmly believe he is gone. A massive loss but no point worrying about it. his father is ill and has been poorly for some time. Money can't compete with that. It was clear in his presser a month ago that the questioning on this topic made him uncomfortable. Only the people refusing to accept it couldnt see the way he mumbled those answers. there is no advantage to him delaying the contract. The CBA excuse is baloney. theres no way Melbourne havent offered massive coin and a long term so what else is there to discuss that is so far poles apart that it had to be postponed. Further to that, if MFC have offered everything they can and Jesse still postponed , we'll connect the dots guys. You would delay talks for a year over contractual technicalities. hes gone,
  7. i wonder if harmes was ever a demonland wanderer or poster pre afl career?
  8. The game plan has swung far too offensive. will not stand up
  9. we can only hope that is the case. i would imagine its very much Roosy's show in the box. wont take anything away from Roos's efforts with the club but game day he is left wanting. i dont think many on here will dispute that. anyway plenty of film to look at and hopefully tweak a few things and bring in a couple from casey. i if trenners makes it then he is going to provide a nice injection of leadership that others at casey dont have.
  10. yes seriously. of course there were blokes with bad days at the office but our game plan was totally carved up and we didn't react to that. that makes players reactionary. has happened to me in the past. when you are being told to do one thing that is clearly not working it makes it very hard and you just end up chasing jumpers.
  11. Petracca showed he has the skill. the game was a bit to quick for him at times but his touch was A grade. not worried at all. people get sucked in by media hype far too easily.
  12. Roos is really a very non reactive match day coach. out of stubborness or just lack of ability, i dont know , but his refusal to adapt to the game unfolding in front of him has cost us many times now. im not sure the players were to blame today. the game plan got carved up and without leadership from the box it left them unable to adapt and the carnage which ensued made it hard for the side to stay in the game. an opposition side picking apart a game plan will make players look slow and reactionary. im not so keen to put all of this on the players to be honest. of course ill agree some more on field leadership will help but in a nutshell our game plan has been picked apart and no answers were provided to the players. hence so many lefft in "no mans land" on turnovers
  13. Thats exactly what it was. It was teh plan from a fortnight out i would say. had merit as long as petracca earnt the spot. not sure he earnt it over oliver but he was showing form . naive to think the decision wasnt part marketing.
  14. Perhaps a bit of a financial decision as well. Debuting Petracca at our etihad home game will help the gate takings is maybe part of the consideration, knowing historically supporters stay away from etihad a bit
  15. Cows, Dorks, ex-druggies, the rubbish, leppas pride, the boos, handbaggers, gnats, duckers. ? what are you? 12?
  16. I want to like this Twice. burgoyne, Jetta, Garlett and maybe others do far far more for aboriginal interests than Goodes. Divisiveness serves no one
  17. Site Administrators is there a possibility with the current software to put a 6 hour block on offending posters as soon as these weak ass, [censored] for tat defenses of fragile egos break out so that informative discussion of the topic at hand can be allowed to carry on unhindered. This garbage that's allowed to play out is a cancer to every discussion it invades. The rest of us aren't interested in watching these social misfits defending their little online kingdoms. We just want to talk football. Site admin, please look in to it. Freeze the offending posters for a few hours so by the time they can post again, the discussion has carried on beyond them.
  18. That's fine, Pitchy , I get it all the time. It's an old photo
