Redleg

Recommended Posts

I doubt we will win 56 games next year, but 11? ...

You are thinking too small RBB.

As you need to count preseason, interclub, practice matches as well as training.

I think it is too late for me to get one Redleg

My boy is a dalmatian and he can run like the wind. No one will be able to get the ball off him.

5 + 6 = 11, 1 + 1 = 2 which is Nathan Jones, second favourite for the 2015 Brownlow behind Dom Tyson ...

Or in honour of the news on the other thread, 2 = The Great Robbie Flower. R.I.P. champ.

But can he kick DF?

No but its AFL Football so there is no need to be able to actually kick the ball.

I remember him as a player but did not support the Dees at the time. But from what I been told he is exactly what I respect in a player. Loyal, team player, cares about the Club and was a supporter before becoming a player.

Players like this are rare and deserve the respect from all Club Supporters. He will be missed by many including non-mfc supporter. The guy was clearly a legend of the game as well as a great guy to boot.

I have 1,000 times more respect for a player who loves a Club so much they will not move to a more successful Club. Great player do not have to play in grand final winning teams.

As I did my research on him by watching old games in which he was a player. I too had a tear or two.

Unfortunately DF there is little footage of him.

In those days the VFL only had two games a week on TV and as we were crap we did not get too many game televised or recorded.

I went week after week just to see him.

Everything you hear is correct.

If he played with a good side his reputation would be way higher, Reputations are solidified in finals and Grand finals.

IF he had played with Hawthorn or Carlton at the time he would have won a norm Smith I have no doubt.

A bit of my youth died yesterday.

The way things are going, there will be club legends no more.....

Free agency will kill it off

Gone are the days that players stick by a club for better or worse and be remembered as a champion of the club

I hate the way the AFL is at the moment....Great Hawthorn champs ie, Dunstan, Hudson, Bartlett at Richmond, Farmer and Goggin at Geelong

All champions of their clubs

Soon players will be called champs.....Not CLUB champs

It's a sad state of affairs.

Gone forever BD

Sad but we just have to move on or leave the game.

I have considered that option and I am hanging in.

"Just" I might add

I didn't go to one game this year OD.....Watched on tele or just got the scores on the computer

I always thought soccer was frustrating and boring....well footy is becoming the same.....No goals in quarters or halfs , players that I really liked...Gone. I will remain a member but find going to the footy a bore.

I share your feelings Bossdog

I used to think that Aussie Rules was way better at the game now I think it is better on TV as you do not see as much of the rolling malls

and because you only see a small part of the ground so almost never see half the ground with no one in it or 100 players coming on and off the ground all day.

Visually it is now crap IMO.

After the past few years, we might be lucky to win a few training sessions ... :blink::blink:

54 the great Trevor Korn's number.

5 + 4 = 9, which is Jack Trengove, due to come roaring back from injury with a vengeance. Another one of those tackles on Dangerfield, please (unless Danger is playing for us ... :) )

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
