Brodie Grundy was traded to the Swans for pick No.47 and a future second-round pick, which the Dees then turned into trading those two picks for Tom Fullarton (pick No.47) and Shane McAdam (future second-rounder). Rate this … ? Tim Lamb… ? Like to reply.

Shhhh 1 any update on what’s going on with the AFL’s audit of Geelong’s salary cap? Hmmm it was talked about then … radio silence. Hey if this was the DEES, it would be an ongoing story everywhere. Shhhh 2 Tanner (Bru#hn)

Buckley brings BIG TIME PRESENCE into the club. Not sure how the back room shadow men of the Board or coteries could accept that. He’s my preferred choice. Media would treat him with a degree of respect. Not much but at least some !!!

The issue of Casey and our home base won’t be resolved soon, given Caulfield hasn’t even been ticked off yet. So while continuing the process of Caulfield do we base ourselves at Waverley for a 2-3 year period? Start by getting all departments under the 1 roof while Caulfield gets built

Let’s go !!!

Three early options being discussed 1. Nathan Buckley as head coach, Jimmy Bartel as GM of football. 2. Corey Enright head coach, Ken Hinkley as GM of football. 3. Cameron Bruce as head coach, Adam Simpson as GM of football.

Mcvee is a keeper and should move into more of a half back role next year to use his skill. ANW returns and must be marked to play small lock down defender role

Luke Hodge. Gerarrrd Whateley. Even the mad suggestion that the leaders are now disrupted and that Gawn should “consider his options, to chase premiership glory with another club in the window over the next two years” !!! What the ?

Libba punch … zero Darcy punch … zero Curtis punch … 1 week Wow.

Actually the MRO is very consistent. Nothing to see for Cats or Pies players. Moore Mihocek Dangerfield And … Tom Stewart Tom Stewart - launched himself. Duty of care? The potential to cause injury doesn't count this week!

“Believe there is a certain journo, his name begins with Jay (and yes ends as Clark) who is absolutely over the moon with Dees sacking Goody… and his mate Warner (or Mick as he might be called) are media gutter [censored] of the highest order. Jay C is the type of bloke to probably kiss the mirror good night before bed”. Love this post after the Goody dismissal

@Demonland Media like Eddie Maguire say Melbourne are this incredibly unstable club … having sacked a 9 year coach. In that time: North - 4 coaches Carlton - 3 Essendon - 3 Gold Coast - 3 St Kilda - 3 Unstable ?

I rate White in the late 40s in this draft. He has upside but there is still plenty of talent in this draft that should get picked before White. Let’s hope he lasts through to at least the 3rd round or after.

He’s a good player with his pace and footy iq, playing either in the midfield/rover role or as a defender. Impressed in Vic metro game as well but likely to be a 50-60 draft pick.

Why Melbourne’s decision to sack Simon Goodwin was the right one (which shouldn’t denigrate his achievements & legacy)👇 nine.com.au/sport/afl/news… @FootyonNine @wwos

Chaplin coaching. We have had the Reverend … now the Chaplin !!!

But amongst the pile of excrement , these two are also trying to disrupt even more Not Damo. Not Caro. Not Clarky. Not Tommy Morris. Yes it’s Whateley the cats lover and Luke Hodge … suggesting Gawn should look to move to a club competing for a premiership in the next 2 years Where does that leave the skipper?" What does Goodwin's sacking mean for Max Gawn and the rest of the Melbourne leaders? @WhateleySEN | #AFL

https://nine.social/107A Sam McClure The future of the Melbourne Football Club remains unclear, after the club parted ways with premiership coach Simon Goodwin on Tuesday morning. Sam McClure joined 3AW Drive to have his say on the sacking of Goodwin and what’s next for the Demons. “I think Melbourne with their kids list wise can turn this around pretty quickly if they get the coach selection right.” McClure said on 3AW Drive

Dogs $1.02 Dees $25 Chaplin might not even trouble the wins column in the next 3 weeks

Agree @Little Goffy Thanks to Simon 🏆 From all of us Dee-minions

Dees Let get Ange … we will be premiers in year 2 … then sack him !!! !!

Ps. Garry Lyon and panel appointed Mark Neeld. Do not let him anywhere near this selection process !!!!

I guess it took the board 7 months to find a new CEO, who then couldn’t start for a further 4 months. So maybe they think they will start the search for the new coach now and have them appointed by … before round 1 2026 hopefully 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
