Lethal

Is anyone left at the club that would be capable? PJ maybe but he's so busy drafting Board Minutes recording "resignations and pending AFL payout assistance" he probably hasn't got time to scratch himself.

Watched him play a number of games in the 2nd half of his career. Would rank for mine as the dirtiest player i've seen alongside David Rhys Jones and Dipper. No harm in asking I guess but I recall someone asking him this just after Bailey was sacked. He just laughed and said there was no way he would. And that was before we became the official basket case of the AFL. I doubt he'd want to jump into our frying pan at his fragile age. Might not survive the first month let alone the first year.

Dermot, Andrews, Duckworth, Merrett, Grinter, Fidge, loved those days... bring back some biff.

I rather watch John Duckworth then his Brother Billy any day of the week.

I remeber when John standing outside the oppositions teams change rooms after half time waiting for the coward who KO a young Dean Laidley earlier in the game.

Think John must have told him that he was a goner if he came anywhere near him for the rest of the game, which being the coward he was he never did.

I have always respected senior players looking after their younger team mates. But never want to see the cowardly hits behind the play.

The whole thing is being set up in the background by Jackson and Demetriou. They are talking to all of the prospects, and I would be almost certain the matter has been discussed with Matthews.

Hope u r right bbb cause we can not afford to get this wrong for a third time as that will be the death of our great club.

All this talk about 'is someone from the club talking to him" and so on, is a load of absolute nonsense.

I think you are pretty close to the mark here 'Barassi', with the current board on the outer and a FD in transition there is no other way for it to work.

The problem with letting the afl make our decisions, is that they might allocate an avg fee to the coaching position, which would eliminate Roos, Matthews, Thompson and clarkson.

They may more be thinking about stability and sustainability and would therefore be inclined to pick eade.

We need a president that can represent the rank and file, and give us our long awaited 'great' coach, Lethal.

Disagree with this T.

In my opinion the AFL no doubt recognise our dire position and realise that we need an "A" grader for a coach which would be either Roos, Matthews, Thompson, clarkson or the like (depending on availability and desire).

I would Hope So.

& I think the anxst is because the factions could shoot us all in the foot, if they manage to change the board mid ships & throw a spanner into the board... if we miss out on a Matthews,,, the club will split, right down the middle.

these factions better be careful bringing back their past.

I contacted the club today in regards to Leigh Matthews and the opportunity for me to join the future board.

She said I will be contacted later today.

I don't think you'll get a look in today for some reason...

TT In my wildest dreams I just don't see it happening.

He has given no indication he is interested in coaching again anywhere.

Let alone a basket case of a list like the MFC.

In 2012, he said he was interested in the MFC position, but was not contact by the club. It was on 3AW for everyone to hear. I know Gerard Healy was surprized to hear that, as I think all the listeners were surprized. 1 big royal [censored]-up.

There is nothing I would like more T

But I think he has moved on.

Love to be wrong!

We paid $400 for MN but a top coach could cost $1,5m does the MFC have that amount of cash?

If that is Lethal's fee, we will make it back in spades. We will also save money not having to renew the contract of half of the assistant coaches that surrounded Neeld.

Realistically, if we got Lethal, our membership base would increase by 10,000, especially with all the hype that will surround the 'new look team' which will also include Hogan.

The real question is, if both Matthews and Roos say yes, which one would we go for? Probably the one with more desire.

Top coaches pay for themselves, if lethal come aboard you would gain 6000 members, now time that by 200 dollars and lethal pays for himself, I'm sure Webjet and Opel would be delighted with that result also.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
