I must share my frustrations

People on here are very precious IMO.

Some of the criticisms made on here are fair comment, some are misinformed. Where they are misinformed, information has been provided. But there's no need for people to get their knickers in a knot because some people don't like the logo. FFS, last I looked, this was a forum for discussing the MFC. If people get upset at pink jumpers, let them. It happens to be the MFC's tradition.

For what it's worth, I agree that the club is going in the right direction, but anyone who closely observes our club (and especially those who have a bit to do with the administration) know that we are fairly poor in some areas. Pink jumpers were an absolute embarrassment IMO. Now that doesn't mean I don't think cancer is more serious than pink jumpers, but I'm not on the Cancer Council forum.

Some might argue that having a forum for football, and not world hunger or knocking off Middle Eastern dictators, is trivial. Stop being so precious!

Wait, are you saying that when Melbourne played with pink jumpers against the Bulldogs in 2010 that was an embarrassment?

Because when people refer to "pink jumpers" they are referring to the stuff up by New Balance last year in getting the red in the jumpers right, not the Cancer Council game.

CS was responible for the debt demolition, Jimmy the front man. He does a great job, if you can do better . Apply for the job.

The first foundation heroes dinner was held on august 5 2008 (cleared 2mil). CS was appointed CEO late august 2008. It seems that you and many others have forgotten in the past few weeks that Don McLardy was the initiator and main driver in the debt demolition. The whole concept was in progress well before Schwabb was even appointed. As far as off field heroes go there are few better than DM in MFC history

No, I'm talking about 2011, not the 2010 cancer ones.


think we are being trolled

Praha had 2 quick posts then disappeared quite a long way back

never did get to see his 2012 membership card phpto (or any other)

been away from my desk and gasped with shock to see that this thread was still alive

Wasnt our old nick name the fuscia's? sounds like an apt colour choice

It's "fuchsia". After a guy by the name of Fuchs. No kidding.
 

I think everyone has had a chance to put their spin on this topic.

Thanks for your input, thread locked.

Cheers

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
