Is anyone able to shed some light on what this means for Fish in respect to being ready to go for pre season and/or any lasting impacts.
Google search tells me it's the same injury as Cripps around this time last year, so hopefully not too significant - it seems a fractured tibia is the one you...
His presser today was a shocker - looked very rattled, and some of his responses lacked coherence in respect to the questions asked.
The rhetoric has completely changed from 'we're not going to make excuses' to spending half every presser rattling them out.
The club locked itself into backing...
Turn pick #1 into pick #9, pick #14 (Crows)
Trade 2 X 2nd rounders for Kennedy types
Draft: RCD, Rozee, McHenry, Collins
Trade: Lloyd, Brodie
FA: Wallis, LeCras
Names obviously interchangeable but that would be a fairly big off-season and vastly address our midfield stocks.
In respect to guessing what a player may be thinking or planning, there is no difference.
I couldn't imagine the club wanting to trade Weitering, but Boyd and Schache have shown kids aren't unsusceptible to seeking a trade if they're not settled.
Out of interest, I have looked at Melbourne's best 25 this year and listed below how long they have been on their list.
Interestingly, 19 of the 25 have been on their list 5 years or less. Comparatively, this will be season 2020 for us.
Melbourne's best 25 by years on list:

Personally, as a supporter, I needed to hear that interview. I no longer have unwavering faith in the club, and it is naive to not believe this year has raised legitimate concerns.
Bolts' pressers have by in large been disappointing this year, giving supporters cliches instead of honesty...
Sharing his personal approach and insights is hardly a private lesson, I'm sure many of our players would have mentors independent of our football club.
Judd has already imparted all his knowledge on our club, it's up to the likes of Murph and Cripps to continue that teaching, not Judd.
I'm...
I still look at Mitchell following Simpson, Hodge following Fagan and question why no Hawks player have followed Bolton, given his strength is meant to be in development and building relationships.
I know some think this irrelevant but there's been a clear improvement in the Eagles midfield...
Bolts says there is a strong comradery among the players, yet one play that stood out was Dow making a desperate smother on the wing; despite several players being close enough to acknowledge the effort, only Murph did.
Soon after Dow could have made another desperate effort but instead chose...
Yesterday's presser was a concern and a real sign of the pressure building.
Refuting the Lions as a bottom four team because 'they've had a lot of close losses' takes me back to Malthouse's 'they're a very good football team'.
All year he's pushed the rhetoric 'we won't use injuries as an...
Weitering has gone past 50 games, and is playing worse. Is this a concern? No because ultimately he's still young and inexperienced. When would it start to be a concern, maybe around the 80 game mark?
Issue with this is it implies Lewis brings more leadership and experience to the table than Rowe and Cripps, he doesn't. These two for us most definitely belong in the 'experienced' category, making it equal.
If you extend it to '80 games and under', which is really no less relevant than 50...
If there is an exodus of sorts next year, they will struggle to get value as we saw with Lions in 2013. It'd be prudent to ask some questions this year.
Why do they need to be ranked. He's been unfortunate to hold the mantle during a poor period for the club, yet has been the preference during two separate regimes and several very different playing groups. While many have jumped shipped, he has stayed. Nothing in that suggests a poor leader.
