Some good points here.

I don't want to appear pedantic, but it would help if we all got the spelling of Garry Lyon's first name correct.

It's Garry not Gary

Now back on topic.

It's good to see him finally get involved.

In many ways it's a pity it took a crisis to get his "support".

Jimmy and the club have needed it for some time.

So, after making a myestrious phone call to set Jim straight, after Bailey has been dismissed ans Schwab offered a last minute one year extention, Garry is going to "thrash out" the issues with his mates (i.e. the most significant figures left at the club) in the hopes of finding a "resolution."

And why is he qualified to do this exactly? Beacause he use to play for us? Because he is on the telly? Beacause he is friends with all of them?

It is sure as hell not because he intends to stick it out and see things through.

This is a farce. Worst of all, there may be no better realistic option.

You will get over it Hazy....Garry is reminded of the MFC every morning when he wakes up, courtesy of his bad back, so give him a chance....The President asked for his help, and he said he will.

We know you don't like anything post Gardiner.....

With all due respect thats its what you do when your "mates" are in trouble ... you get in there and help them out.

What's his qualifications ... he cares about this football club. He is a "legend" of our club and respected by many. Magic he is a past player with experience associating with many AFL identities. But most of all he finally wants to fix the "real" problems on ALL levels.

Sadly this club has lost synchronisation ... its time to fix it. The alternative is not good.

IMHO he is the optimum "fixer" because he will be willing to listen to all. Sorry but we all have to give a bit. Yes that includes us.

Garry is many things, but the one thing that can't be disputed is his leadership. It is embarrassing that a bloke off the telly has to get in there and shake things up, but as mentioned, it's the only option we've got.

I feel my club is close to death, if Jimmy's efforts, which were strong on UNITY haven't sorted us out, I fear what will come next.

Hearing Garry speak, and Todd's presser, shows me that people still have passion for this club, and there's a glimmer of hope in that.

A lot needs to go right from now on, or we're gone.

What? Because he used the word Cancer??? Are you for real??

We have major problems at the club and if we do not get rid of the ASAP it (the problems) will go through the club like a bloody disease (if they havnt already)!!

Garry would have meant anything else about it and Jimmy wouldnt have taken it that way.

He could have used some other affliction like a parasitic infestation or perhaps hemorrhoids.

I'm really glad to see Garry on board just a shame his work will be limited with his media priorities but i'm wondering if any other ex players will help out.

You would think Ox,Neita,Flower,Or even Robbo would try to help out.

Yeah, if they've pulled on the Melbourne jumped they must be great footy coaches, administrators, etc.

What do other people in the footy industry know? Their clubs have only won every premiership since 1964.

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
