Not quite correct, Barrett said the leadership group would be reviewed, and MAY result in Brad Green standing down as captain...........nothing concrete from Barrett at all!

And the name raised as possible football director was Greg Healy as opposed to Gerard.

Think I'm going to give up. I just can't understand posts like this.

Don't give up. Gerard is gonna save us. Keep the faith.

Any idea what Greg has been doing off field these past few years? I would be keen to know what business acumen he brings to the table. Sounds like great news.

This has probably been done to death in other threads so don't reply if you don't have to, but personally I think he had a very valid point.

He'd be a very good get.

He was the first that came to mind, but I was under the impression he was too busy with Quiksilver, and unwilling to move on (don't blame him, it'd be a good gig).

If this is legit, Lyon is coming up with the goods.

It is Damien Barret though, so take it with a decent grain of salt...

What happened to Lyon?

If only he had balls.

What does this mean?

I mean, he doesn't have the balls to blame an appalling loss on the fine posters of Demonland...

That takes a rare breed.

But he goes ok.

You are very good at testing my resolve to restrain myself from insulting you.

Congratulations.

C'mon little Sug''.. It's time, to take the reigns in one form or another. The foundations are lay'd to start building, in what ever role? is best suited for our club.

Sugar was sitting at the next table to me at the Foundation dinner on Ron Barassi's table. He looked very happy to be around the Melbourne faithful and I wait for the next call of "jobs for the boys". Only difference of course is that this will be an honorary role. He could be a good fit for the position.

I'd be glad for him to be back in the fold.

I saw him a few years back, down StKilda, said hello.

I see him all the time in Brighton and he still looks fit enough to play, tough little bugger. You'd never see him shirk it on the field, but he copped heaps from the Melbourne supporters when he played.

I guess not much changes.

Good Bloke Sugar....and for any of our younger posters, Greg played in a very tough era.

Not the biggest bloke, BUT he never shirked an issue....Took a bone crunching mark in the 1990 Elimination final. To this day i don't know how he didn't get taken off on a stretcher.

Sugar Healy stood up against players much bigger than he.

He was a very good Captain.

    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
