Geez i hope not, i just gave Tom Morris a huge clip in the other thread 😂 If i am banned in the next 2 hours you can be pretty confident!

I am sick of seeing our club be direspected and low balled in trades. I'd start a malicious rumor about them if they didn't also include a future third round pick, has to be a late one though.

Perhaps 3 tooth per mouth might be more appropriate for Port Adelaide

Sorry, all we have to do is talk about Port and i lose the ability to read, write and count. explains why their fans are the way they are really.

Headline "Port interested in Kozzie Pickett after he has 21 disposals, kicks 4 and tears their defense to shreds single handedly" Not shocking they want him at their club given he dominates every time he plays Port.

We've been linked to Josh Battle, Jake Waterman, Dan Houston, Harry Perryman, Issac Cumming, James Peatling and i am sure others publicly this season, so that certainly happens as well. I get it though, it feels closer to home when the club is getting slammed from all directions

of course, the AFL wants player movement, so that will continue to be promoted, players are going to come and go, and really good players like Kozzie will be chased every off season regardless of where they're playing. I understand the emotional attachment, but we just simply have to trust the club has the right things in place to hang onto guys. He's not going to be traded with 4 years to run on a deal unless we're offered something outrageous

One thing i would say is i really don't see the issue in Alister Clarkson naming Jack Viney, he was very complimentary, i am sure Jack wasn't offended by being considered a culture shaping leader by a 4 time premiership coach. by this stage of the year clubs know players are coming and going long before the media do.

They will every year, get used to it. Jeepers Dees fans are really not used to having good players.

I absolutely would, at worst he'd add some depth and help Casey be more competitive next year. His best footy is really solid.

I reckon it shows the power of forgiveness, Trac had the guts to get up and talk to the players, i'm sure it's gone an enormous way with a lot of them and it's really nice to hear that even though we can't make finals the players are happy and energised. time for a big pre season and a big bounce back in 2025.

Binman sacked him, he's on the lookout for a new PA if you wanna apply ;)

No like from Goody, guessing he is off to North.

Not only is your take on this absolute garbage, it's delusional to think a contract extension is negotiated with someone like Max since the Petracca drama started 5 minutes ago, they would have been talking about this for weeks. I would happily pay max til he's 40 for what he's done for this club, not just lifting the cup, but dragging us from a mediocre nothing club to 3 consecutive top 4 finishes.

Given Max is very likely to be the All Australian ruckman this year i really don't see any issue with him signing on for 3 years.

Even with finals out of the question, finishing the season on the back of back to back wins and seeing this game plan start to work could really set us up for a pre season! i hope we attack this game with as close to our best side as we can and beat the Pies.

I would love for West Coast to be Carlscum, we beat the filth and they both miss the 8! that'd be the dream

I was really impressed with Marty Hore, he looked really solid, beat his opponent consistently and some of his kicking really opened up the game for us. a role we've really missed since Hibbo retired.

Footy act, he will get off. Oh he doesn't play for Collingwood... yeah he's having a holiday

Honestly, the chances of us pulling Clarko out of North to coach the Dees are higher than Jack Viney leaving the Dees to go to Norf.

Geez, what is the down side to having some experts from the footy industry come in, have a look at how we're doing things and giving us some recommendations on how we can improve? Why not go out and pick 4-5 of the best footy people we can, Brendan Gale, Peter Jackson, Luke Hodge, Joel Selwood, whoever it is and say, can you take a look at our structure, give us some insight into how your great clubs have done it and help us bounce back in 2025 and win another flag. Honestly this would be a very reasonable step to take given the smoke around the club for the better part of 18 months now with several concerning incidents. Noone at the club should be immune from the review, all positions looked at and we make sure we have things right to the best of our ability heading into 2025.

Lets just be honest, winning a premiership is bloody hard work when everything is going okay, we've got issues coming out of our ears. Trading a high end draft pick for a 28 year old is not the right move, lets get our culture right, get rid of the bad eggs and re-load with Melbourne 2.0 Anyone excusing what's going on/gone on from the board down needs to leave, i think the CEO, most of the board and Richo should all be under pressure for this happening on their watch. I don't blame Houston one bit, we would have sold him on playing in big finals at the MCG and winning flags, and we've got articles about our best player wanting to leave, why would he come?

He's about the only bloke who hasn't knocked them back it seems!

Draft and develop, plus recruit role players with high character and leadership via free agency, build up salary cap space and make big moves while winning to maximise how attractive we are in the marketplace.

I heard he misses Brodie Grundy!
