I figured there would be one anyway so I thought Id get it started. For anyone attending can they please answer some questions for me.

1) Was Moloney there and were there other players missing

2) Speeches. I presume Don and Mark will speak. What did they say

3) Im assuming Jones will win. What did he have to say.

And was there any other important news.

It would be great if someone could report these back.

 

I'd like to know if Moloney, Rivers, and Royal go. (Would expect so on all accounts, but who knows?!)

And geez I'd love it if Clark gives a speech!

I will respond on what they will stay

1) Moloney will be there and will hand the medal to Nathan Jones

2) Don's speach Thanks for coming we all know it has been a tough year on the field, we are not happy with what transpired and we are looking forward to a much improved 2013. Off feild we will be profitable we had Opel re-commit for a second year and a number of sponser options that we are working through. Like to pay our respects to Jim, the first B&F with out him, thanks Jim for all you have done.

MN Speach, firstly thanks to the members and supporters for coming out to barrack for us when we know it has been hard to stick with us. 2012 has been hard we have changed the whole footy department and we will hopefully see our results change in 2013. Boys look around these are the people we let down, we have to prepare ourselves over the next 6 weeks for what will be another hard pre-season, there are no excuses this year be ready for October 29, we have to make our supporters want to come and watch us play, they turned up this year and we have to give them reasons to turn up next year.

3) Jones, thanks to the coaches support staff, family and supporters. Boys this year was crap, there is no way we are putting up with this in 2013.

There will be more fluff but these will be the main points.

Will he talk about not deviating off any lines? And that if someones does, they can go to Carlton, or wherever?

You talking about Clark or Moloney?

Clark seems a passionate bloke, and is part of the leadership group, doesn't need to talk about the players leaving, needs to focus on the players staying.

I don't understand why you'd love for Clark to speak.

Much of what you just wrote is Moloney to a tee 12 months ago.

Why wouldn't Royal go? I haven't heard anything about him getting the sack.

What do you want our leaders to say?! As I explained, Clark is part of the LG, and seems a passionate and down to earth guy, would love for him to set a positive and proactive tone for the preseason.

Why wouldn't Royal go? I haven't heard anything about him getting the sack.

Neither have I, but his contract is up and if he happened to not be there it would speak volumes.

I'm just saying that that's pretty much what I heard from Moloney at the B and F 12 months ago.

Jones wins. That is all.

2012 is not mentioned again.

Jones wins followed by Rivers and Grimes.

If he goes Riv will be missed big time. Think Green Moloney Rivers departing a team lacking experience!

I get ya. But as I was saying, I would like to hear something more positive and proactive for the boys that WILL be there, rather than agro at whoever is leaving.

2012 is not mentioned again.

I hears ya brother !!!

Why wouldn't Royal go? I haven't heard anything about him getting the sack.

I was under the impression he was still contracted for next season....are you sure he is done?


1.Jones

2.Grimes

3.Rivers

4 Howe

5.Trengove

6.Clark

I'm trying to find solid info from somewhere, just going by what has been said around 'Land.

Is it on tonight? Have many been is it good?

The 'staff' end of year reviews commenced today.


1.Jones

2.Grimes

3.Rivers

4 Howe

5.Trengove

6.Clark

Except for poor ol' Trenners, who shouldnt make top 2o!.. he'll cope with it all better next year imo..

Absolutely agree with everything else.

I think Dan Nicholson should top 1o, he was superb this year!

Expect the same next year from Evans, as Nicho moves into the midfield.

If Jones was overlooked tonight.. ha.. id burn down the freakin 'G!!!

{-i actually wouldnt really mods: you ever erasing, beastly powerful overlords, who we just love having 'round the place-}

EDIT: actually, replace Trenners with Tom McDonald! he deserves top 5 after his remarkable season.. king of the 1%ers our boy tom!

Jack Fitzpatrick on crutches when introduced.

Just had an operation, no shock.

 

Why do we always seem to trade our best a fairest winner a year or two after they win it.

History will tell you that winning the bluey medal isn't exactly the best thing.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
