i don't really care, but i would like to know. A Western Australian comes in to be our President is certainly different.

Perhaps it's about time something like this happened. Or would you prefer someone old school establishment to continue the tradition?

I wouldve thought Peter Jacksons comments tonight on the couch regarding the Presidency, in so far as how the process will be undertaken and to what involvement the AFL will have in the decision means that the appointment is still some way off, yet another journo guessing to try and get a scoop is all I would call this...

Could be wrong WYL but was he a foundation hero?

I don't mean to be rude, but are we basing this on nothing other than Jay Clark?

I'd be hesitant to accept this as fact without some other, more trustworthy source, confirming things.

If it's true, however, it's a great get for the club, IMO.

Whenever I think of Jay Clark reports I think of Anchorman and Sex Panther "60% of the time, it works everytime". Edited by ignition.

Good on him if he is PSD i have no idea at this point.

We need all the Foundation members to stick fat.

I'm not sure either WYL, could be wrong but it may have been Redleg or another regular who said he was. Redleg if it wasn't you I apologise in advance

I know nothing about Glen... But I do know quite a lot about the law firm at which he is a partner. Let's just say, if he is a good and decent bloke, he is an exception!

There are a few Presidents in the AFL that I wouldn't classify as good and decent blokes.

I did and he is.

Not sure if anyone knew this is on our website (apologies if you all knew!), but here is a list of our Foundtaion Heroes;

http://www.melbournefc.com.au/the-club/foundation-heroes

Glen Bartlett is number 413. If you are one of those that looks for a sign in things, his FH number couldn't be more appropriate - Glen Bartlett 4 (flag) 13!

My understanding is he is a Melbourne supporter since birth. Remember there was no west coast or freo back then!

He didn't mention that in his speech on Saturday........which he surely would have,were it a fact. Unless he just assumed that we knew, him being a FH.

I wonder if he's any relation to 60's player , Maurie Bartlett. There is a slight resemblance . I guess he would have mentioned that, too, if it was a fact. He didn't.

    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

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
