you obviously dont understand what a formula can constitute.

Your so called indefinable qualites are exaclty that DEFINABLE. They can be introduced as variables.

Its EXACTLY what a formula does.. It computes anynumber of inputs according to a guideline.

If you dont get that....stop !!

FFS.... How are you still not getting this?? Sure, there will be a formula, but there are things that are outside of that which will be discussed by the committee.

I don't know how much longer I can explain this to something who thinks indefinable things are definable and are also variables.

    They will definitely have all the variables listed and weighted to come up with a consistent approach to FA compensation exactly like the MRP has done when it comes to penalties....

    Whatever happened to Tex? He started this mess :-)

    I think his OP was found inside a scrapbook surrounded with pictures of celebrities with their eyes cut out, and drawings of people with knives in their heads.

    Rivers (F/A) + Gysberts, for Geelongs 1st Rnd pick (16ish) + Chappy (1+1 $$$ front ended contract)... Experience for Experience + CULTURE exchange.

    Why on earth would Chapman want to spend the last year or two of his career at the worst team in Victoria. A player that has won 3 flags, a player that lives to play finals, yet he'll go to a bottom 4 team to see his career out ? This isn't like Luke Power, or junior who are on the scrap heap and have been thrown a lifeline. This is a player that wants to win another flag.

    For God sake man. Start using your brain.

    I have watched a bit of Chapman this year and he's not a patch on the player he was, he still tries to do the things he used to do but just can't. I don't think he would add much value to us at the moment.

    So ? I don't want him either. But it has nothing to do with the point I was making.

    I understand that I was merely making an observation on Chapman; perhaps I shouldn't have responded to your post.

    Tex is speaking from the heart fellas.

    From what I've heard i.e. Melbourne's slackness in the Gym this year to this ridiculous hit the boundary game style Neeld is indeed a huge worry. Jurrah leaving the club is an absolute disaster not only on field but also from a membership point of view. Jurrah's huge coupe for PA. Moloney has been F ed up by Neeld big time. From 2011 to get 19 brownlow votes to see him not be able to play his own game with freedom is an absolute shocker .

    Players are under the wing of no more than a suburban coach and a good one at that. Melbourne have wasted another 5 years with the Neeld appointment. Malthouse or Lyon were what we "neelded"

    Chapman looked pretty well cooked to me watching last Saturday. He can no longer break free from a pack to be creative.

    Should retire a legend.

    At last, somebody said it. Chappy is going nowhere!! He will have 1 or possibly 2 more years there and bow out the way he should, as an absolute champion of the Geelong footy club. MFC will not even bother thinking about him.

    Did you see what just took place on the Weekend re Geelong. They folded like a Japanese Origami.

    They are after youth, (Caddy Gysberts others, & a replacement Key Tall back.) They don't want to bottom out, & they will try to fast track they're re-ignition.

    It is Very likely they won't offer chappy much at all, especially now the Graffiti is so Bold on the wall.

    chappy will find much more beneficial offers away from the Cats, Especially from sides who need an injection of good Ol fashioned Pro attitude.

    An aging Chappy may be struggling to fit into a top team like the Cats have been, but would be a Cultural godsend for a club in our position. The Experience, aggression & Positive attitudes he would bring to our club would be huge.

    I think amongst the Classy youngsters we need, we will also pickup some like Chappy, thru FA, or thru late picks/trades.

    If we don't get a Cloke, we'll need to spend some Salary cap. And not fall into the Trap of over paying youngsters who haven't earnt they're stripes.

    And thats why we can get him.

    Theres a big difference between them playing finals footy, & us playing H & A games. He'll be fine with us for 1YR +.

    He's be above our mids & small forwards atmo.

    Didn't we just get rid of a Moloney? Why get another one?

    Lets be serious for a moment. Why would we want an ageing old star from Geelong or anywhere else, whose best football is behind them? Second matter Geelong is capable of and should be made to pay a decent price for Gysberts if they really want him otherwise what's in it for us? He's contracted and a few of us still think he could be a good player if he wants it, so suitors should put up or shut up. Chapman, Enright, Corey, Scarlett all done and dusted for mine. Vardy, Duncan,West or players of that calibre maybe. We should be trading up not down.

    He is indeed, a 12 month to 2 yr contract option, he would bring plenty.

    It's not All about Just climbing the ladder instantly, & more kids won't help here, but Chappies grunt & attitude would be a Tonic to the whole club & would help get in the mood for Action.

    I think many here are truly underestimating the Culture thing & just how hard it is to change, & to get some attitude into the Group.

    Chappy is one of the main instigators of the Winning change that swept the Cats into they're new dimension under Bomba.

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

    • NON-MFC: Round 08

      Round 08 of the 2025 AFL Season kicks off on Thursday with a must-win game for the Bombers to stay in touch with the top eight, while the struggling Roos seek a morale-boosting upset. Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.
