The AFL will be watching the MFC very closely for the next few years, you can bet your Granny on that.

Angry Anderson would be the perfect fit. He already knows the inner workings of the AFL.

You could be sure a win at all costs (legally) mantra would be spruiked.

As he was the protagonist of tanking.

I am not saying it is right or wrong. But you can be assured the AFL will want somebody they can work with.

    Are you asking a question?

    emh, yeah, & issuing a challenge to see if we could budge him from his perch?

    I don't know his contract status except he rejected North, who the "AFL apparently" were trying to set Cook up, as their man in the Roos office.

    Maybe at the end of the 2013 season Cook could work for the AFL, in the MFC front office???

    Has the business accumen and would have a good handle on where we are at, but personally would like someone without an MFC background.

    The club needs fresh ideas and a new outlook that would come from an outside view.

    I'd prefer to have Greg entrenched on the Board,,,, with a person of high business standing, But a "Thoroughbred Blue Collar" sleeves rolled up, manly way about him...

    pull no punches, Micky Conlon to add the rough to the MFC imagery... I'd rather us go for a Gary Pert style anytime.

    Greg can wait, his role isn't there just yet.

    Cook has a great record at both West Coast and Geelong. In both cases he had a club operating out of a stadium where demand exceeded supply. That makes life a bit easier on the financial front.

    The miracle he achieved at Geelong was convincing the bank (the NAB I think) to take a haircut of some millions. Without that the Cats may well still be rooted.

    If he has any more miracles in his bag of tricks I'd like him to throw a few our way.

    • 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.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
