The news is saying he was epileptic, but sad he passed away

No he got a virus, I think called Norse Virus, which induces seizures like bad epilepsy. Tragic news.

    I saw an news item about him in my motel room last night.

    Just goes to show never trust the media.

    After a round of golf at Apollo Bay last year, dropped off to the Hawks? Ground and watched them play against Otway Districts. Interesting battle, hawks home in a canter.

    Gillette would do ok down there as a sponsor....fair to say manscaping is definitely not in their repertoire.

    Entertaining slog in the pig pen in the middle.

    real men have body hair.

    most start shaving at 16 down this way.

    and thats just the girls.

    more facial hair down here than at an greek wedding.

    FMD!! You actually measure this stuff? Christ Jazza you play this hard working dairy farmer role but you also lead a life "on the the other side". Nonetheless Biffen and I want to sign on. Daise would like to but he can't give up the blue rinsers. 1800 teats a day - amazing.

    What more misery can this club cop, now it looks like Clark will retire.

    I would be off the AFL demanding multiple PP's if they want us to not stuff up their next broadcast rights deal and attendances, not to mention inbalance to the ladder. Now is the time to get aggressive with the AFL and get a committment.

    Don't hold your breath Redleg.

    We saw what the AFL did under pressure from the other clubs and in the interests of preserving GWS' first pick.

    Not only that - there are a few Melbourne supporters who hold the view that we can recover without the handouts and who will loudly rant that priority picks are unnecessary or at least undesirable to assist in our recovery and will make a loud noise to that effect. This, despite the fact that the AFL has rules which indicate we're definitely entitled to draft assistance by any measure.

    and others also believed that Dawes who be a great captain.

    There are some others who thought we would actually win games in 2014.

    Blind faith is a requirement of becoming a MFC supporter.

    WJ I am one that believes we should get over this " a priority draft pick will fix everything" attitude and I still believe it.

    Now that does not mean I don't think we deserve one or need the help provided.

    It is the attitude that annoys me.

    The MFC has bought us to this point the point.

    The MFC chose the last two coaches and FD"s, we chose poorly at the draft table, we chose poor management.

    It has taken us a decade to grind down to the worst list in the competition.

    The competition owes us bugger all we have bought 95% of this on ourselves.

    IMO it is going to take us at least another three years ( including 2014 ) to become even competitive with the top six sides.

    The AFL will only put up with us until the end of the this TV contract as they need the games we provide.

    If we have not dragged ourselves up by then we are in serious trouble for our very existence.

    How many people will watch the Game tomorrow on Foxtel?

    I suggest a few thousand. The broadcasters probably already see us as expendable.

    The future does not look good to me.

    Now you can say I am negative but in my opinion we are at deaths door

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

    • NON-MFC: Round 08

      Round 08 of the 2025 AFL Season kicks off on Thursday with a must-win game for the Bombers to stay in touch with the top eight, while the struggling Roos seek a morale-boosting upset. Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.
