I went though our list last night I came up with the following list of players that I would shed in the next few weeks.

Now there are a couple on here that may be unlucky because they are out of contract.

In no particular order

Jetta, Nicholson, Gillies, Tynan, Davis, Sellar and the following retirees in Roden, J Mac and Davey.

Nine in total.

If there was a chance I would trade out any of Jamar, Tappscott, Bail, Blease, Byrnes Pedersen and Strauss.

Unfortunately there is probably only Jamar that would attract interest and then not much in value for the MFC.

What is everyone's opinion.

    IMO I wouldn't delist someone like Tynan who is still young and developing, same for Taggert.

    Flash, Joel Mac and Rodan have retired.

    I would delist/trade Jetta, Gillies, Byrnes, Bail, Sellar if you keep Pedersen, Tapscott, Nicholson, Jamar and Strauss.

    I would keep Blease and develop him. I would give Davis another year unless you were offered a trade.

    That is 12 players, that is a big turnover on the senior list.

    Rookies Magner and Couch are probably also gone.

    I seriously doubt it would be 12 Redleg, like you I think that is too many in one hit.

    To get rid of 12 you have to find 12 that are better 6 to 8 maybe achievable but I doubt 12.

    I think he was suggesting a possible trade bb

    But seriously who would be interested?

    We have seven I would like to trade but I doubt there would be more than one taker.

    Jamar might get a little interest but that is about it.

    Byrnes off the list, is a non negotiable for me.

    Now for more good News the Mighty Falcons are playing for a spot in the WAFL Grand final on Sunday.

    I am hoping for more good wins for the red and blue war machine.

    Amen to that TBF

    Are you going?

    PS The mighty Norwood Redlegs are on top by two games and percentage with one game to go.

    Looking good.

    I am not sure if I can get there this week end as the wife away at her gold mine so may not head home this week end.

    But will watch it on TV if I can.

    I remember driving for 24 hours to see them win the 1995 Flag (previous win was 1975) and they were the underdogs. How great is a Grand Final win especial when it takes a few years to achieve!

    The Falcons finished second but one win more then the second and four teams.

    Claremont has always been our boggy team (Jessie Hogan is from Claremont).

    Is it too much to ask for a real coach at the MFC and a Flag in the WAFL all in the same year?

    I tend to always support any team that has Blue and Red regardless of the sport.

    Then I say "C'mon the CARDIES!"

    The venom against us by the other clubs in respect to the PP is just amazing.

    Brad Scott could barely control himself.

    Eddie said we need to get rid of it and just have an equal competition. You are 100% right Eddie. From now on every team gets 2 friday nights. Pies have to play at Skilled stadium every year. Pies play in Perth twice each year and no more 18 games at the G. Pies play at 4.40 against an interstate side on mother's day.

    Yeah Eddie lets make it a fair competition.

    He from Collingwood do we care what those guys say?

    I have little time for that Club ever since they carried on little spoilt children after a GF loss to the Brisbane Bears and would not let a player attend their Fairest & Best Awards Night because he want to go home to his family.

    But the day they beat us by 80 points and then their thugs, I mean Supporters, beat up the father of one of our young players, now that will live in my memory forever.

    Class Act Eddie, now go and FO and tell someone who cares what you think, because none of us in MFC do!

    Think I will sent a picture of our Premiership Cup to Eddie for an Xmas Present in a few years time.

    They are the worst Club Ever and I want Roos to give us a team that will Smash them in every game we play them.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
