WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - BERNIE VINCE


Ted Lasso

Recommended Posts

Ralph just tweeted that someone on Twitter who is in the know has claimed that it could be Vince, McKernan and Henderson for Pick 2. Not taking that too seriously as the bloke he quoted on Twitter has no followers but on the other hand Ralph wouldn't re-tweet it if it didn't have some possibility too it.

One minute they say Pick 2 not involved, the next minute this. God bless trade week.

McKernan is not needed due to being a tall forward. Ricky Henderson is practically Jack Watts.

No thanks

Why don't we chuck in Viney with that deal too? You know, just to make it fair

As laughable as that deal sounds you can't help but have a small part of you worry about it after Mahoney said we are more likely to swap Pick 2 for players rather than a great player! ;)

true, but I don't think our club is that stupid. Maybe in the past, not now

Very true. I don't personally think that deal is a possibility and if it was FB or a 'mate' suggesting it then I wouldn't bother, but I figure someone like Jon Ralph putting it out there means there is a least a small amount of merit in it.

Why Jon Ralph is as much of a tool as Barrett Hutchy and the rest of the sycophants. He retweeted a brain fart someone had, wouldn't read too much into it.

Don't bet on it, 94.

Recent history would suggest that if administrators are not stupid when they come to Melbourne, then something at MFC soon changes that.

As laughable as that rumour is, we have done crazier things than that in the past.

God, I hope I'm just being a cynical old .art.

Has a Victorian girlfriend apparently

What position does she play? I hope she's an on-baller.

I guess if I pursued this further I would again risk censure by some of our more zealous moderators, so I will just have to leave it up to your imaginations.

I didn't intend the humorous banter that has occurred as a result of my post. Funny how things develop.

I was suggesting that Vince's girlfriend living in Melbourne was not all that significant given that she would not be playing for us.

I understand, none the less, that it could help entice Vince to come to Melbourne (city) and hopefully play for MFC.

Sorry can't agree. Bernie Vince is still a gun player and it shows how little a lot of Victorians watch Interstate Football when they deride such talented AFL players. Bring him in with Jarrad Lyons and pick up a couple more youngsters in the draft and Cross in the Pre-Season and we might actually start to win more clearances and amass more Inside 50's.

generally gun footballers finish in their club's top 10 in the B n F when they play 21 games.

Even gun players have an off year and Bernie fell out with the administration after his naked party antics on the grog.

John Ralph reported things post neeld sacking that only an inside source could have told him - like neeld making certain players cry and Moloney insisting Jamar always tap to him. These were facts that had to have come from an inside source since they were not public at the time. Sycophant or not he knew more about what was going on inside the club in the Neeld days than most supporters.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.

    2024 Player Reviews: #2 Jacob van Rooyen

    Strong marking youngster who plays forward and relief ruck, continued to make significant strides forward in his career path. The Demons have high hopes for van Rooyen as he stakes his claim to become an elite attacking forward.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

    Had to shoulder more responsibility as the club’s injury concerns deepened but needs to step up more as he closes in on 100 games. Date of Birth: 31 May 2000 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 95 Goals MFC 2024: 6 Career Total: 34 Games CDFC: 1 Goals CDFL: 0

    Date of Birth: 12 November 1999 Height: 197cm Games MFC 2024: 20 Career Total: 82 Goals MFC 2024: 9 Career Total: 28 Brownlow Medal Votes 3 Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    2024 Player Reviews: #22 Blake Howes

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0

    2024 Player Reviews: #33 Tom Fullarton

    Originally an NBL basketballer with the Brisbane Bullets, he moved across town in 2019 to the AFL Lions where he played 19 games before crossing to Melbourne where he was expected to fill a role as a back up ruckman/key forward. Unfortunately, didn’t quite get there although he did finish equal sixth in Casey’s best and fairest award. Date of Birth: 23 February 1999 Height: 198cm Games CDFC: 14 Goals CDFL: 13

    2024 Player Reviews: #10 Angus Brayshaw

    Sadly, had to wrap up a great career in midstream on the back of multiple concussions which culminated in the Maynard hit in the 2023 Qualifying Final. His loss to the club was inestimable over and above his on field talent given his character and leadership qualities, all of which have been sorely missed.
