Let me guess, that last one was Yze magic? :P

Haha, I think you've nailed it.

    Seems a perfectly realistic thing from my standpoint..well within reason Id say Graham

    Yeah I think it was mate. That thread got outta control in the end. I had a light-hearted crack about Daniher's triple supannuation bonanza and it all turned to custard after that.

    There's a lot of people over there that plain and simple hate each others guts sadly.

    I think the most salient point you have made in this thread is the one in your signature.

    I'm surprised Yze_Magic didn't make a comment asking why Cameron Bruce didn't individually donate $10,000 to the MFC? :lol:

    Either way the MFC players DID donate some money (they should be applauded for that) and for Brock McLean to donate $10,000 more of his OWN money shows a lot about his generous and loyal character. The bloke has made a few mistakes but overall I think he is a pure CHAMPION! I believe he must have Red & Blue pumping through his veins too!

    I know people say its not a good thing to do but I would sign up Brock McLean as a Demon for the rest of his career and seriously consider him in the race to become a future MFC Captain just for his kindness and genorosity.

    He's a pretty good player too... ;)

    You've got my vote! If Brock wasn't out for the season with injury i'd say the coaches would've put him straight in, but as it is i think he needs a full season just in the leadership group.

    Well done Brock! No point trying to cynical about his motives, just accept it for what it is, $10,000 from a passionate supporter. Whether he can afford it or not, $10K is a hell of a lot of money from someone who is not obligated, for any cause.

    exactly. should also be noted that whilst a.f.l players get paid very well, they also have a short amount of time to earn the money they do unless they have other career paths, which many don't. brilliant gesture from brock.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
