I will now use my number five jumper to wipe my arse with. Or maybe I'll wait til I see who gets the number five first..

I thought he handled himself ok in that interview and didn't take any low blows at the club on his way out unlike Robbo who can't seem to keep his mouth shut.

He didn't want to be at the club, that's fine, we moved him on and were compensated fairly.

Time will tell who has the last laugh!

in one breath his saying late last year was tough and everyone really had to make sure they stuck together and in the other his saying towards the end of last year he wasn't happy and made his mind up to leave.

he knew that because we succeeded in only winning 4 we'll be adding 2 gun mids and he won't be getting a game in two years.

see ya mate.

I suggest quickly following up the brock interview with this one:

Yep good call.. Im feeling alot better already. Infact I don't even recall a guy by the name of Brock? On a diffrent note has anyone seen the series of 'Joke Watts' clips on youtube. Although It makes me very angry the back ground music still makes me laugh.

LOL at those Joke Watts clips. They are hilarious. God he looks like a mistake in those videos. But we'll see . . .

I thought the interview was a credit to Brock and his professionalism. Well done Brock, and thanks for giving your all during your career at the Melbourne Footy Club ............ but I'll stop short of wishing you well at your new club, because they are almost as putrid as Collingwood in my reckoning.

Did anyone else think it was interesting that in this interview, both Dr Turf and more importantly Brock, more or less admitted that the club was tanking at the end of the year? Add to this Robbo's comments that were quoted in the Herald Sun on the weekend, and you have 2 players saying (In a round about way) that the club was tanking. Is it possible that this could lead to possible remifications? Or have the AFL created a rod for their back by steadfastly (and ignorantly) denying that tanking exists?

My dream scenario is Melbourne beating Carlton in a premiershpi with Brock looking on in despair.

Brock McLean - the man who wanted to lead our club, but whenever was given the opportunity, went missing.

Carlton can have him.

Jimmy Bartel tagged Lenny Hayes in the GF. Is he walking out on his club... no because he did what the team and the club required of him.

Perhaps Brock, if you could run 100m in under 15 seconds and kicked it to our forwards on the full, they would have given you a more creative roll.

Anyways, no hard feelings :rolleyes:

Yes your words are close to the way i think, The sad part about this is that Brock just wasn't playing good Football.

So he had Bugger all to fall onto.

Next Years Carlton Game will be a Great Day......

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
