Bring Back Brock

Featured Replies

Nice article in the Hun today on him saying that even though he's as slow as a turtle there is a place for guys like him in modern footy. Come home Brock and win a few contests for us.

 

no, seriously wtf is wrong with some people? I dont mean to have a go but come on, why would you want him back? look to the future not to the past

Don't kid yourself... the way we are traveling at the moment, anyone can look good playing against us.

 

I think he has played 5 games in his two years at Carlton....A lot more at VFL level

Nobody has the right to bag McLean or suggest he wouldn't be good enough at MFC.

He would be hands down our number 1 midfielder at the moment.

He tore shreds on our 3rd world midfield. Apologies to N Jones.

We could do worse than a McLean at the moment.

Just silly. Sorry mate.

The guy has had 1 good game and he's a recruiting target for the (already) slowest midfield in the AFL? Come on, is this a joke thread?

And if you really think Brock is better than Jones at the moment you have no credibility whatsoever.

The cynics would say Sunday's opposition as at VFL level. :unsure:

I like Brock..but have not followed him closely since he left.....How has he gone against the good midfields??????

Just would like to know..

He hasn't faced one this year yet. Stay tuned.


If we thought he'd bring leadership and a good training ethic then he'd be worth considering.

I can not understand how people are saying we haven't given Couch a game because our midfield is already too slow but Brock is actually being taken seriously as an option by some people.... Wowee

Brock is like Cam Bruce at the moment, both will get a game when they have injuries or the game doesn't count, such as when they play against the GC, GWS or us.

Theres a smattering of ex Melbourne "Filler players" in the competition at the moment and if we had them all back we'd be no better off.

Pass. Wish he'd never left, but no value in having him back now. Got to move on.

I want some of what you're smoking Ned!

You're living in the past, man, you're hung up on some clown from the SIXTIES, man!

Some of the posters on this form absolutely baffles me.

One minute we will have a huge thread about Scully, expressing our hatred towards the player who we picked up as a number #1 draft pick but has now left us due to a lucrative offer. On the other hand, we have Brock Mclean who we picked up in the top 5 draft picks - and left us due to the fact that he did not want to play for the MFC anymore and wanting to find success else where. The suggesstion of opening our doors to the club for Mclean after he walked out on us is absolutely disgusting and weak despite whether he would be an asset.

I wouldn't be surpised if half of the guys here who are thinking this would be a good idea are weak minded individuals who would get dumped by a girl thinking she could get better, then half a year later when she comes crawling back you'd most probably think hey... I'm struggling at the moment, why not? It could be a good idea, I could do worse.

This is the Melbourne Football Club. Not a cushion lounge where a player can leave and then decide whether he wants to come back or not. Get a grip you blokes show some bloody spirit.

I think you'll find that Brock left because he mistakenly thought we had a good midfield and he'd struggle to get a game; well he was wrong wasn't he?

This has to be a troll or the most infactual sentance I have ever witnessed.

Agree. Simon Godfrey would tear us up as part of a Blues midfield with Judd and co

He wouldnt be our no 1 midfielder. The fact that he isnt in the Bluesbest midfield baffles me why anyone would want him back or regret him going for what we traded him for.

Correct.

 

Pitch this to The Comedy Channel. It'll probably get up.

i think you'll find Melbourne didn't want Brock anymore, so when he did suggest a trade we were quite happy to oblige.

  • 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?

    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.

    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?
