I also smell some trouble between Carlisle and the Bombers FD.

I would have a go at him as well.

Even if he is one of the 34 he would be a great get, a versatile tall who can play both ends.

    Colorful and appropriate. Like the rainbow this thread is, in an otherwise dark, stormy sky.

    Sorry about the bunch of uglies in the middle.

    BTW WJ how was the B & F?

    Never ceases to amaze me that despite that fact that we've won so few games over the past few years, the supporters remain proud and stick to the club. The fact that close to 900 supporters turned up at a club function like this in times like these for the club is amazing.

    It is amazing.

    We probably have the highest percentage of masochists of any AFL club.

    We would probably figure high on the false optimism table as well.

    Anyway it is fantastic that they can get so many to a function after finishing 2nd last.

    Arr the sun is shining, I woke up alive, GD duties tonight, Planning a Banana ( well half one ) sandwich for lunch, New bottle of single malt on the shelf, the best time of the year for the MFC is just around the corner and the thread is 500.

    A lot to be happy about today

    I am just surprised that the MFC finished second last in the past two seasons.

    Clearly the MFC had the worst list in the league over that time by a country mile.

    The question has to be asked, is there any Tanking going on?

    Well that would be obvious from reading this thread alone.

    Long may you keep reading the thread. Are you also an optimist?

    I see your avatar and your name is frog. I know they like water and could be found in tanks. However we need to stop discussing tanking as it never happened. If it did other clubs would have been charged with tanking.

    Absolutely no need DF we got to equal last through hard work, spending multi $millions and superior skill.

    OD don't forget we are all MFC supporters, which means the glass is always half empty!

    So the sun is shinning for only half a day, you woke up to go to work, you only get half a banana for lunch, you can't feel any more pain as the AFL season is over, and we need to complete another 500 pages to make it 1,000. There a lot to be upset about you know.

    PS I could not say any bad about the GD duties as that only a good thing and can only be an enjoyment. But remember lots of sugar and red cordial and you should buy battery operated toys that make very loud noises (for when she goes home).

    I am not suggesting the MFC is Tanking.

    It just how have we finished so high up the ladder with the list we have?

    I am looking at other clubs who IMO must be riding in their own Tanks.

    • NON-MFC: Round 12

      Round 12 kicks off with the Brisbane hosting Essendon at the Gabba as the Lions aim to solidify their top-two position against an injury-hit Bombers side seeking to maintain momentum after a win over Richmond. On Friday night it's a blockbuster at the G as the Magpies look to extend their top of the table winning streak while the Hawks strive to bounce back from a couple of recent defeats and stay in contention for the Top 4. On Saturday the Suns, buoyed by 3 wins on the trot, face the Dockers in a clash crucial for both teams' aspirations this season. The Suns want to solidify their Top 4 standing whilst the Dockers will be desperate to break into the 8.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

    • REPORT: Sydney

      A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.
