WTF, why is Aaron apologising to MIFSUD if he hasn't done anything wrong, if this is just AFL spin on this all to be a misunderstanding and/or incorrect interpretations fook that. If Aaron has made no such comment don't apologise and if you didn't do not allow the AFL to report it as such. Lines in the sand

Aaron isn't apologising.

This was never about who said what to who, it was only ever about Misfud breaking a players confidence. The AFL have just tried to muddy the waters by bringing the other crap into it.

We'll get a plum draw in 2013 I'll bet as a result. Home games against the likes of Carlton and Essendon.

Striker IMO we have a fairly good draw this year.

The draw is not the problem It is the MFC playing poorly that is the problem

Just to clarify,"it was only ever about Mifsud breaking a player's confidence and misinterpreting what he had been told. How he misinterpreted it and what exactly he misintepreted we'll never know, and quite frankly, I don't want to know. Let's just get on with playing footy.

The interesting part about today is that the latest piece is from the AFL Media Department.

Now call me a cynic but would they put out anything that did not paint the AFL in the best light.

there was an interesting segment on Media Watch last on just this issue

If any posters are interested in where the AFL is heading with Sports journalism they should logon to the abc and watch last nights media watch

it is quite illuminating

One question remains in my mind. is Grant Thomas an accredited AFL media person? If so, I would have thought his accreditation should be revoked immediately in light of his unprofessional publishing of that article. Garry Lyon should also have held him more to account as a co-panel member of Footy Classified.

I don't mind Thomo and I think his views are often refreshing and interesting, but if it were any other journo who did what he did, they'd be out of a job quicker than you can imagine...

Only a small point fitness

But please do not call him a Journalist.

At best he is a commentator, there is a significant difference

I've got to disagree od, he IS what passes as a journalist these days, just not always very professional

We should not have any inflated ideas of journalists either. One needs only to read what masquerades as newspapers these days

It's in the MFC's best interests that this dies now, I suggest we cease giving it oxygen so it can do just that.

    The premiership defender had his best year yet as he was given the opportunity to move into the midfield and made a good fist of it.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
