Prepare for the pain on 28th April.

The only concern I have is the performances and progress of those in my team, old dee.

I couldn't care less how former MFC players go at opposition clubs. Just like I couldn't care for Travis Johnstone and other former players who have had little influence after leaving and only seemed to perform when it suited them, not necessarily when required or on a consistent basis. There is however one exception.

Scott Thompson still burns.

May have something to do with the fact he is up to now the only really good one that left H_T.


....and wells, alves, healy?

Who could blame them dc.

The first two got to play in GF's something they would never had done at the MFC at the time.

They were also in the twilight of there career's.

They had given the MFC great service.

Healy Swans 5 years 104 games- career twilight?

dc Did you miss I said "the first two"


stuart spencer, donny williams?

Gee dc you are getting back a bit and they did not go to VFL clubs and in the case of DW he came back and played in the 64 flag.

Hell that seems a long time ago even when I say it.

the wizard didn't?

Thompson to me is considered utterly consistent in terms of output. He doesn't perform when it suits him, he performs when required dc. That was the point I was making.

The Wiz was good, every now and then. Thompson to me is a more valuable player.

darren jolly?

who that bum that could not get a lick and lucked into two flags at Sydney and Collingwood.

Hardly worth mentioning.


Simon Buckley?

only joshing :)

I just spilled by coffee


Re Beamer & Martin and even Gysberts I care because they were all victims of coach Neeld. We have all forgotten how he sacked the old leadership group including Rivers at the start last year and cleaned out the club so he could get his players in and play his style of football. We all have short memories of his arrogant uncompromising attitude and angry manner (just ask players and staff around the club). There are 7 former players deemed good enough to get a game at other clubs that is an extraordinary number

Well now part of his assessment this year will be the performance of the team he has built as well as the players he discarded. Our ruck stocks are thin and I certainly didn't agree with giving Martin away. It is only February but he will be judged this year and remember how we all couldn't believe how the team could go from 8 and a half wins in 2011 and hope for improvement that led to a bottom 4 spot in 2012.

I don't know any one else that didn't see the need to make wholesale changes.

Ironically, if Healy had stayed he would have played in a grand final (and to be technical, Wells and Alves both got premierships, not just GFs). Wasn't Healy in the opposition team when we beat the Swans by about 80 points in the semi-final in '87?

Looks like the GWS have signed up at least half their list to extended contracts. Don't think the other clubs are going to be able to raid them as easily as they thought.

  • 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.
