The truth of the matter is this should be in one of the other Bailey threads.

Maybe it should be in the Bailey Thread then again maybe the Todd Viney thread or then again the Football department thread or even Better yet the Players Thread or maybe it should be in another thread describing the thought process at the MFC

Really does it matter all that much???

They lost by 184 points in today's game. Unacceptable. No excuses if he coaches next week. No excuses.

I blame the umpire.

In fairness, the margin should have been five points less. Colin Garland touched the footy as it went through the sticks - I think the margin was about 150 at that stage.

Could've been a turning point. After all, momentum's everything in the modern game.

Why the use of Radom capital Letters?

We put in 5 million dollars, plus our millions of dollars every year through membership.

They've had four years to put a game plan into place.

James Hird managed it in 5 months.

Get stuffed MFC coaches, you are all shite. We don't even have a director of coaching, no surprises there.

There comes a time when people need to be seen to stand up and take charge, the Real Leaders from within a footy Club or any organization in disarray.

Jimmy is doing a great job of reuniting the place but for some reasons late last year, after some Big inroads on the list & financial debit sheets, it seems some have taken things their own direction.

These times when they come to a Head, give an opportunity to cleanse and start the next chapter. This needs to be done through someone's strength drive and passionate leadership.

To take the advice of a few great men >

< make it happen!!!

These turning points in Clubs histories have occurred before and now it's arrived @ our doorstep. (see the following)

This post is one of the reasons why I have kept my powder dry since Saturday, I am as devastated and disappointed as everybody else, but drivel like this disgusts me even more

If you are going to post try and at least make it something intelligent

I was looking forward, in a manner, to Redlegs account of the previous debacle and the ensuing aftermath. Would be very interesting. I remember the day ( like you could forget it)

Hopefully if he has the time :)

It will be forthcoming but not as part of the report from the game. Circumstances overtook us and it's now an issue of getting the time to sit down and go through that game. I better remember its aftermath the following week when we beat Essendon and Piggy Walters booted nine.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
