Has there been any word of Clarry playing up this off season? I wonder if this is playing a part in things. Especially if we’re going to pay half his contract for 5 years and flip him for nothing. Although I tend to think we’d probably get a pick in the 30s.

Not to my knowledge, I think King has probably come in and just been given the full story regarding his behaviour. Compound that with his form dropoff and it's an easy decision.

Yep, when your play no longer outweighs the issues its bye bye. If Goodwin wasn't around im pretty sure we'd have flogged him off to the Crows two years ago.

I've heard stories of him getting pretty rowdy at the races

What exactly is his personal situation? Wants more cash?

Then pass on Humphrey, in that case.

Morris saying he didn’t believe the narrative about it being a bad draft and it was just an information loop.

He said he went and checked with scouts and recruiters who proceeded to tell him it’s the worst ever.

He misses Moe.

So we are to trust Tom Morris over scouts and recruiters who get paid to do it for a living and told him it's the worst ever. Ok.

He wasn’t contesting what scouts said, was just relaying it….which is his job to do.

No we have room for one Mummy's boy still, vacant since Jackson left.

 

[MarcMaverick]

He misses Moe.

To prank call.

 

[schmuttt]

We need to push incredibly hard on this.

 

[Bluelegs]

Not writing this off quite yet. If he nominates us it will get done but that's the hard part.

 

[Scythe]

incredibly hard

Billings on trade radio speaking well but it was flagged that he got no feedback while he wasn’t in the 1s, was told to just keep doing what your doing.

Also said that development is an area where Melbourne can improve.

Additionally made reference to 'not being one of the flag guys or one of the high draft picks'. Bit of a hint at how Goodwin prioritised players (but we already knew that).

 

[Scythe]

There's definitely been a bit of a shift on the Humphrey front. Just need to do everything to make sure we're front and centre

I gave Billings plenty of feedback

What an indictment on Chocco and Goodwin. I caught that too.
