Got an email from the club about "Member Appreciation Week'

Seems like a reasonable idea to try and keep members involved in a totally crap year.

I know it is the last home game but it could be a dismal game on Sunday as the culmination of the week of prizes etc.

It is not just the MFC but a general AFL "members appreciation week". All clubs are doing something.

Has anyone else filled out the members survey yet. There are a few interesting questions and im sure they will get some honest feedback.

anyway the prizes look interesting. I would be happy to win the dinner at the wharf. I think if I won tickets to the b&f Id give them back. Dont think I could stand to be in a room where the players will be clapped and they will talk about the poor season and next year will be different. Beside we all know Jones will win it and so he should.

Just wondering has anyone received their members "name" guernsey for this weeks game against Freo. I am still waiting for mine.

I filled it out.

Pretty sure I scored 0 for all on-field related questions. Well I'm not gonna lie.

Nice to be appreciated, now go out and win for us.

I saw no point in holding back or papering over the cracks.As far as I see they want to know how we feel. I accommodated this inquisitiveness :)

There are some things done well...and then there is the on field.!!!!

I hate East Fremantle (WAFL), South Fremantle (WAFL) and Fremantle (AFL) so I would appreciate them all getting smashed on the week end.

I was at the Fremantle Corporate Function a few weeks ago (when they played the Crows) and they were laughing at us and said no one wound admit to being a MFC Supporter after our 122 loss to North Melbourne.

Its time to put these upstarts back in their place, pity our team is so bad.

Yep I pretty much scored us a 0 and also I rated the board and administration pretty low as well.

I have spoken to a number of people who have done the survey and to a person they reflect what you have stated above.

I guess it is an annual survey but I think the club would be expecting the obvious result.

When you have the horrible year on and off the field that the MFC has had in 2012 and this year any thing less than a lot of criticism would be a surprise.

The only thing that will improve the situation in 2014 is getting people on the board who are competent, a good management team and then winning a few games.

Seems simple but by our efforts over the last decade show it is difficult for the MFC to achieve.

I am not holding my breath.

OD you will find most of us have answered the same way, but if you bemoan the last decade remember a lot on this board are members who have rights, most have sat on their hands for the last decade, so basically we got what we deserved

Not sure I agree with that Satyr

I think the majority put their faith in people and that faith was not rewarded.

e.g the board, at no stage over the last 7 - 8 years was there ever the opportunity to vote for board members.

Now did I stand for the board?

No because I had neither the money or the required skill.

But I don't believe the average member got what they deserved.

Nothing can possibly live up to the lofty heights of 'Lefty Round'

I liked lefty round. It seemed to me like the AFL were taking the [censored] out of themselves for constantly having 'theme' rounds.

The interviews were all facetious and Cloke was blaming being a lefty for his terrible goal kicking. The Luke Hodge ad was pretty funny too.

I thought it was a rare instance of self-deprecating humour for the AFL.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
