Bring back the roller coaster!

Yes that is a positive isn't it - we've managed to irradicate the week on week off inconsistencies of last year.

    If he was really gutted he'd put his hand up to coach...

    No point being the coach NSC if it isn't in his blood to want tto do it. Mark Neeld wants to coach & is a qualified school teacher...a far better option IMO

    How many times does he have to tell you that he doesn't bloody want to coach

    What makes you think that he would make a coaches a....hole

    He was a champion footballer which doesn't equal champion coach.

    What does it take for you to realise that he will never coach.

    Thanks for stating the obvious Gaz.

    I wish he hadn't added to wait and reserve judgement until after the Tigers game though...

    Aah yes the old MFC "Faith in next week" we make an art form about not worrying about today. Helps to always deflect blame.

    Politicians live by it!

    He must rate our chances of getting over the Tigers.

    The only thing I got out of that article is that it is now confirmed Greg Healy is the Footy Operations Manager - previously this had been raised but wasn't confirmed.

    I got one more thing out of it, Lyon spoke about himself in the 3rd person.

    They have probably been a little busy lately but I rang the club two weeks ago to confirm that Healy was on the board.

    And was told he has been since the AGM in early February.

    He his still not listed on the MFC web site as a director.

    And on to the much improved "week off week off"

    In 2 weeks we will be 2-2 - for some reason I believe that

    Very funny Sloonie .

    Still a very funny post .

    Gary knows it's a mates club. He's one of them and lacks guts IMO because he wants his say but prefers to wear his media hat instead of his MFC beenie. He's smart enough not to drink from the poison chalice that is the MFC coaching job but ready to give it to someone like Neeld who is an outsider and expendable. If he does well Gary will share in the glory. If he fails then no big deal because it's the " same old, same old" and no doubt he will step in again to make the next move. Somehow I don't think he would ever go against his mates if it mean't they had to go to get this club running and proud again. If Eddie can be a larger than life media identity and successful club president, why can't Gary do he same?

    Well i think, if you are right, there will be a showdown of sorts because the 30-40,000 people who have been members during the last 4 years will not put up with the tripe we have been served lately for too much longer.

    The Boys have got to get on, or be moved on...The Club is bigger than us all.

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
