I personally hate this line of thinking. Being paid well and/or a model girlfriend doesn’t mean he should expect/accept the bashing/bullying/harrasment that happens online. The world was a better place when people couldn’t say/do these things without consequences.
It’s a political nightmare for his managers to navigate as they cannot burn MFC or risk ruining their relationships long term. It’s not just MFC but every other club that watches carefully as does every parent and young talent looking for representation.
Clarry can want to move all he wants but...
I do think we will do whatever is needed to get this done late, we have a reputation of getting trades done. But I’m glad the trade period is long enough to play the Clarry option out ahead of this. Crazy fun trade period for us.
100%
Sam is well known to be hard on the negotiations, even the WB boys joke about not being able to get anything out of him at contract time.
In this case I do believe 100% Mack is sitting back waiting for the phone to ring.
Feel for him. Damned if you do, damned if you don’t scenario tonight.
And we have no idea if he is genuinely wanted there or it’s all PR to setup their next move.
Yeah, from when he was playing with MFC most likely… (edit might have gone early and Shagger was done with them before Clarry arrived)
Interesting to see SDK with the crutch too.
I’m very aware of his behaviour.
But also aware he grew up a good kid and when he was with his gf he had his head on. Things changed and his behaviour changed.
Behaviour is a function of who a person is multiplied by their environment. MFC culture being environmental multiplier in his case...
Yeah, and the same ADHD traits that help make these people elite sports people bring with that the baggage of ADHD in other areas of life

And this is what people need to be patient with. The trade period is rarely [emoji637] thing at a time and you really need to trust our club with a decent track record…
And I thought the incoming Melb drama was the Trac situation playing out with the aflpa releasing more of their findings...
Nah, I think he will fit in just fine. We might see more of that side of him because of his social profile, but he seems a good lad with his head on straight- just that younger generation we all need to get used too.
The validation you may think he is seeking is his brand. The money he will...
Kolo has been better than pretty good. Covers big and small rotations and on form is a long way ahead of SDK as a backman.
SDK struggled in defence this year and just started to look alright in the ruck when he got injured. Given he’s played in the ruck today I think his only chance at coming...
To you maybe, sitting in an office now and the collective is that Geelong got more than he is worth. If you weren't a cats / port fan you weren't following as closely and its just another trade done on the final day.
Yeah, I cannot understand people so quickly forgetting last years haul.
And this year we had nothing to lose. A player outside our best 22 wanted to be somewhere else, even if Mack was just kicking up his feet having a giggle, I dont understand the meltdown over the deal being done so late.
1. No
2. More than 25 based on this years moves so far
That being said, I'd also happily take nothing and see what happens tomorrow- he either stays or finds his way to a club that was unwilling to make a deal for 2 years straight.
Whatever our list management strategy is today (which really...
But we don't have to play fair. If the players we want after pick 30 are the types that wont likely be drafted at all, why help a team in their Premiership window improve.
We've got a great history of getting players where they want to go. But I'm happy we're not making things easy for Port...
I actually agree on 24 being spot on, but I'm in no rush. If we can squeeze out more or have adjacent moves that benefit from this being held off I'm all for it.
Nah, things shift. I don't know about the Holmes stuff, but I know someone was super hot on TDK at one point this year. And if they weren't sharing, I would have because I was hearing the exact same thing.
Just like media tweets that are hit and miss on the final result, we want people to...
