Brocky has some spare cash...again

Featured Replies

from herald sun today...

....DEMON hardman Brock McLean is the first to put his hand in his pocket when it comes to helping the club.

McLean paid $15000 for a guitar by U2 at the MFC annual auction on Friday night.

The tough midfielder also forked out $10000 at the club's Debt Demolition fundraiser last year....

Well Done Brock... hope your mates helped the club in some way at the auction too.

 

MFC get some great things for their auction annually...

I didn't even know this function was on! Clearly targeted at a specific audience...

 

he's single, so he doesn't have one of those attention seeking "look at me" WAG's hanging off his arm bleeding him dry...

if i was single, earning his money i would probably drop that on a guitar too, just for kicks.

what a life. at least he appears to be dorpping the cash on good causes and in 'real life' stuff rather than thousand dollar nights on the turps, an gambling it all away.

although in the end its probably all the same, you'd hope he feels better about doing it this way.

According to my sources (a mate), he was 'involved' not a month ago.

 

Can he play the guitar? Or is Brock just a mad U2 fan?

Probably looking for an EDGE :P

i thought he said when he was on the footy show about a month ago that he was single... that's the only reason I thought this was the case...

Might feel guilty about his pay packet considering how the team has been going

He shouldn't.

His contract would not be based on those terms and he is not the main blame for where the team is at.

He has already put $10,000 into the Club of his own volition.

How much money does this kid earn...Surely he can't be on more than 150-200k atm?

I don't care if he's not that quick, Brock McLean is bloody great for this club.

I'm more worried about his diposal. I don't know about buying yourself into the captaincy but he should be captain. He has picked the worst time to have his worst year at the club.

The current average player salary is $220,000, or so I have read.

I'd say Brock would be on at least $300,000.

Sounds like the money went to a good cause either way, but this report - also from the Herald Sun - suggests McLean bought the U2-signed guitar at a Reach event:

At a recent charity event for The Reach Foundation, McLean paid $15,000 for a guitar signed by rock group U2.

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
