I blame Tim Lamb.

I used to go always even when we were shit and it was pissing down and freezing.

This year not so much at all. It’s a horrible watch and the club is still pretending it’s just a few tweaks and we’re back baby. We’re not and I don’t much care either way. Watching Melbourne is depressing and I’m not Mrs Demons Lady giving her all for the club regardless. I’m a slightly more normal person with one life to enjoy or burn, and if I want to enjoy it spending my time watching Melbourne is just more wasted hours.

Let Trac loose to try and become the player he should be and we can all enjoy it. Like Hogan

I hate that a lot of our supporters are so ****ing predictably nuffy dumb that they turning on him and giving the club a pass as to why we are in this situation, makes me absolutely sick. Passion for this team is nearly gone, I truly hate this club right now and want the worst for it while Roffey, Pert and Goody are still here.

 

[Crusty Demon]

Send him to Tigerland. Enjoy the 7 year rebuild.

[Topkent]

Yeah I hate the club with a passion. Since about round 3 I genuinely cheered Oppo goals more than ours, didn't feel a single pulse of life for our season.

Thou protest to much me thinks

Shakespeare TK? You're full of surprises!

I’m not at truly hating but I’m about a millimeter off.

Petracca is a talent and a very professional, competitive person. A lot of stuff has happened to him, and instead of listening a lot of idiots are turning on him and making shit up about what he says and thinks.

It’s really poor. You switch on the TV to watch these people at their best. If our club can’t allow him to be his best he should totally seek another place to shine.

 

[Topkent]

Lol remember when fatty Od'd and Smith had to drive him to hospital? Bleeds red and blue that bloke

 

[Scythe94]

It's certainly going to be a long offseason if people keep suggesting scenarios that involve 'sending him' wherever we want.

It is not—and has never been—the case in the AFL. IF we agree to trade him, it'll be to his nominated club. If said club can't come to the table with a reasonable deal, he either nominates someone else, or he's back at Melbourne.

Save yourself the brain space and don't bother coming up with scenarios that involve him playing for the likes of Richmond, North or West Coast.

This is fair

But we should send him to Port for Butters and JHF, that fixes our midfield and he never has to be torn apart in surgery again

He'd have a lot more supporters backing him if he told the coach to gagf too

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Him being at rift with Gawn, May, Lever, Viney is another thing. Surely there’s more to it if he has pissed off the playing group also. I highly doubt he would be the only one thinking “our game plan stinks”, out of the playing group also.

If all the leaders have their head up their ass about the state of the club and drink the Goody we are still in the premiership window koolaid he likely feels he doesnt have anyone to turn to so demanding a trade is the only option, what would you do in that situation? Let a bunch of idiots tell you we are fine when we clearly arent? **** that, if no one wants to listen id be trying to get out of there too.

You are certifiable in the most part but I do see where you are coming from.

I want my burnt umber and light ash friends to win it all.

If they don’t, puzzlingly I am going for the Hawks. I know its Hawthorn and all but I am so impressed with what they have done this year and they are a great watch.

Imagine watching a team where everyone knew their role and gave it their best? I don’t have to imagine - I just have to not watch Melbourne

 

[Bluelegs]

How embarrassing. The Melbourne Football Club. Oldest club in the sport has to do this. Wtf have we been doing for 150 years? I hated the whole Cranbourne thing in the first place. Shared facilities. Admin all over the place. It really is a joke. Trac is a big fn sook, but he's at least thrown this into the spotlight again.

We trained at the MCG until the 60s, got kicked out by the MCC and have been nomads ever since. The irony of Junction oval being such a hole while we were there is it got a massive upgrade right after we left and is now the HQ of Cricket Victoria.

Imagine a forward line with Watson and Ginnivan and a bunch of midges searching for high frees still being bloody entertaining to watch. That's how bad we are

We should send him to North and extract a million 1st round picks plus Sheezel and another dude who I’m excited by but can’t remember his name because it’s north.

Take no prisoners Lamb!

 

[Headless]

and another dude who I’m excited by but can’t remember his name because it’s north.

Dom Tyson.

 

[Topkent]

Please please please more than anything I wanna see Trac call a media conference to demand out of the club, best day since the flag.

 

[Mich0]

Imagine have cooked up 2 pairs of gun mids who were drafted together

2 retired from injury - Trengove/Brayshaw

2 left from being pissed off - Scully/Petracca

Maybe we can try get 2 new gun mids and do it all over again

 

[Proper Gander]

Dom Tyson.

YES.

Great hair

I thought that was what you were advocating?

 

[Mich0]

Without the cooking it up part, but that will occur no doubt.

 

[Topkent]

Ohh and we drafted 2 dog shit key forwards together in Lucas Cook and Sam Weiderman
Fun game

Junction Oval would have been perfect in hindsight. We clearly didn't have the foresight or possibly money to lock that in.

Cats about to get a nice juicy grant too in an upgrade to their facilities. We're falling even more behind. Such an incompetent club.

 

[Proper Gander]

It’s Melbourne. Chill.

We will undoubtedly **** it up. It was a minor miracle that we got two gun mids and used them to get a premiership.

I’m back on board if we can spend a few years gradually but perceptively building. Say 2015 to 18 style of job. That was fun. Clawing onto a dream of top 8 when a) we won’t get there and b) if we did that’s as far as we would go is depressing
