Was impressed to see Mike Sheahan sitting in the MCC members on Friday night in a Melbourne Football Club tie. No doubt he has the best wishes for the club at heart, just has to be objective in his job when criticising us.

    Are you sure it wasn't an MCC tie? The guy is about as Melbourne as Tom Scully

    Still found the MCC a nice place to be. Should have his membership revoked.

    Pathetic.

    I guess that makes you easily impressed. Sheahan is a muckraker and seems to delight in taking aim at us.

    was he sitting there open mouthed, moving his head slowly from left to right?

    Like the side show at the Melbourne show...

    certainly am sure ox_5, it was an MFC tie!

    He seemed to spend the entire game engaging in casual conversation with Gary 'Garfield' Ayres.

    Geez Garfield had a very good coaching record (55%) for someone that was maligned so much in the media. .

    In other news, I sat in the same restaurant as Chris Connolly today. He drinks tea.

    I resisted the urge to tell him what I think. I assume he probably knows.

    just saw him on the coverage of the game today on Foxtel. Made a comment about how Melbourne failed to lure Ross Lyon when Freo did. Are we sure WYL isn't in fact Iron Mike? :P

    and that was a fair comment too, why Melbourne didn't put a call out to R.Lyon to inquire of his situation. . successful clubs have to be brutal, and it finally seems as though Freo have taken this path. . (but this subject matter has already been discussed on another thread, so end of story)

    I chat to Ayres from time to time,he goves the impression of being in love with his wife which is nice. He also told me that he was up for the Dees job but they didnt ring :)

    Problem being I was with 8 members of my family... all Melbourne supporters.

    Can you imagine how this could have panned out?

    Best to remain silent at this time I think.

    Ran into Cam Schwab at the Adelaide game as I returned to my usual spot with a lot of beer.

    Apparently he hasn't ever had a beer at the footy.

    Wierd that we didn't ring Conan.

    Will probably take the borough to a second flag this year .

    Agree. Tell him we don't need his money.

    Did he say that Garry Lyon should have called Ross Lyon a liar, when he said he was staying at St.Kilda and that it was prudent of us to pay a Coach $1million a year, given we still had debt at the time.

    Im sorry, I'm not supporting Sheahan here, but our every day supporters take pot shots at us every week.

    whats the difference.

    Using the word"pathetic" when you are a career hack who was supposed to be retired to boot.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.
