Was it 1998 against Carlton at the MCG when he kicked 5 in the 3rd quarter? Also think it was that game where he threw off the knee brace at one of the breaks???? Help me fellow Demonlanders with my memories of such a great player

Melon, if you have them, post em up and ill have a look. Im happyto be proven wrong

Am i the only one that doesnt see it in Nairn? Had 1 good game in the U18 champs and now hes going to be pick 7 or 8??? I would prefer Josh Lindsay by a mile, his kicking is sublime, exactly what we need.

Some of this is also expectation. What do we as members expect from the club?? What do we all think the main reasons are for membership drop off? Are the surveys we all fill out taken seriously by the club? Id think not as i have written some fairly strong worded statements to some of those questions and never been followed up except for the bit where they asked about AFLW membership. We unfortunatley cant know everything that is going on at the club with player behavior issues, management issues and the Home Base at Caulfield.

I think we will all be pleasantly surprised by how we go next season. We have all called for change in the whole team, me included. Tracc and Olivers contributions over last season can be covered. And will be. Only need some improvement from a few and it will be onwards and upwards.

I'd walk away from the deal and then he stays. End of story. Bridges can be mended, get em all in room a sort it out. Tell GWS to talk a long walk off a short pier.

Who cares?????????? Big whoop???????????

I know this will be an unpopular view, but at this point, with seemingly no one on GCS list that is tradable, 7+8 might just be enough. We shouldnt be sending anything back to them, 7+8, nothing else. He doesnt want to play for us, if we hold him to the contract, we will be going through all this again in 12 months. Is that we we really want to do?????

It does seem as if some on here dont quite understand that this is the case. There is more than a few good players that will be available inside the top 15 that id be happy to get.

Couldnt have said it any better. It seems no accident that 3 most talked about players on here are the one being moved out. 1 by his own choice and the other 2 because of the issues attached to them that we all no. Its going to be be difficult to see CP and CO playing in other colours but we need clear air. If these 2 were to be still here in 12 months we would be going through the same BS again. We may not do any better next year than we did this year, but at least they will be united and hopefully get back to playing for both one another and the might Melbourne Football Club.

Don't let the door hit you on the way out Judd. Enjoy the back pocket at Freo cause that's about where you belong.

Exactly, the players available at so called pick 6 or 7 will still be there if the picks are pushed back to say 10 and 11. Academy and Father/Son pick dont make the available players disappear, only makes them available later. We could do worse than take 6+7, 2 of the better kids in this years draft. I wouldnt be happy about it but we may have to resign ourselves to the fact that if we want Tracc out, this maybe what we accept.

For those of us that dont want him gone, lets just hope that none of the deals are very appealing to us. I really dont see how any of them would be.

Pretty ordinary of you PF, you call for changes and the club to get better, well, here you go and now youre off. Unbelievable.

This does seem that we are weeding out all the troublemakers or the one who have brought controversies to the club. Im not blaming the players entirely, club must bear some responsibility. If this is what it takes to clear the air and have a playing and coaching group all going in the same direction, the so be it.
