Questions for CC - Interstate Demonlanders Especially



Recommended Posts

I'm going to a function next week where MFC football manager Chris Connolly is the guest speaker - normally procedure is a speech followed by a question & answers session.

Now if anybody lives interstate (Not Victoria) or overseas and would like to ask Chris a question ... I would be happy to do it on their behalf. I will post the answer back on Demonland ... baring in mind I can't guarantee how many questions he will answer.

Sorry I have to say this - please show some common sense with the questions

There is obviously some questions I cant ask Chris ... and I think we can all work them out. ;) Please keep them constructive.

Importantly please note the function is the 18th November so if you do want to ask a question I would get it in early.

Hmmm... well, lets start with the obvious.

Mitch Thorp - how are his injuries, how is his attitude, how is he getting along with others at training?

Are there any more delistings being considered?

Is the club now confident enough in it's overall talent base to start taking risks on injured kids (such as Ben Griffiths, Callum Bartlett)

Is there a longer term plan for managing the GC/WS drafts - is the depth back again next year? How's the father-son (Jack Viney) situation looking?

Can he put in a good word for me with the ridiculously pretty redhead girl from corporate?

Obviously not all of these questions are obligatory ;)

Not sure if this is a question for CC or someone else but I'd be interested to know how big a response there has been to the Red and Blue foundation. Also what impact that it has had (so far) with Player development/Facility development and on our players.

Also are there any other clubs that we are modelling certain aspects of our player development on and who do we consider to be at the same stage as us with respect to list and premiership window.

These are probably boring/generic questions, oh well.

you may not ask this as Im a Victorian ( how that should be excluded is interesting )....as surely all questions irrespective of source ought to be considered on their merits..but alas..I'll gamble on.

Ask , if you would , How far away is the Red and Blue Print from becoming black and white ...i.e,,,when will it exist in writing for all members to peruse?

thankyou

Belzebub, I don't even understand your question..

BB59 wants Bailey and Co to present a written plan for all(?) aspects of the footy club, for: the future / the build up to our next premiership, and for it to be made public.

Belzebub, I don't even understand your question..

Being the die-hard fan Im sure you are BBB you'll of course be aware that the much touted new business model, plan for success for the MFC ( blueprint for growth and sustained financial stability ) has been dubbed the "Red & Blueprint" by CEO cameron Scwabb. When things manifest themselves intoprint they are deemed to be in Black and White. So as Demon Dan suggests to you..the question refers to when are we, as members going to see the "Plan" in writing..so we can read it!!

For the upcoming draft it is widely speculated that our first two picks (1&2) will be used for Tom Scully & Jack Trengove. Chris, for our other picks 11 & 18, will they simply be used for "best available" picks, or will there be some consideration for one of/or both pick(s) be used on a "KP player" (ie KPF) ?

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)
