well speaking for myself rpfc

I gave my reasons previously why i would be pizzed off when there were 5 games to be played incl Bris and Giants games

I felt it was imperative we finish the season off with some positives to set ourselves up as favourably as possible for next year with respect to existing members, renewing lapsed members, new members, sponsors, player morale, respect etc etc

Yes we are already damaged, no i don't expect miracles or finals etc.

I just hoped we could show some improvement or positives (no matter how small) to finish off the season and not slide backwards

That's why i will be pizzed off

Spot on daisycutter - clearly you care - thank goodness someone does

Caring and position of finish are not necessarily mutually inclusive. The premise is a crock of shlt.

I still dont care about where we finish this year as its al but irrelevant other than what pick you get. I do do care about our list and many other things....that matter

However we criticise other things, I'd say the lack of those three guys in the forward half outweighs any other issue for MFC in 2014.

Worth repeating.

That's your bolded line, not mine, but it may as well be mine.

I have already said that I am interested more in how we finish the season with our performance than where we finish. Hawthorm WCE, and NM provide a great test of the mindset that Roos has instilled.

Ironically, you are tacitly not including yourself.

Read the above, read what we have written and try to comprehend: we do not care about coming last, we care about how we play, who plays well, who does not, and who we target when these 4 games are over.

Understand?

Saints play the dogs this weekend.

Saints win we are bottom

I imagine the Dogs will get up by 5-6 goals.

But it's no certainty.

Still 47-37 "i don't care"

Disgraceful.

WYL...with all due respect mate I think you're howling at the wrong tree.

The Topic isnt ...How upset you'll be if we dont have a crack for rest of year, nor is it How upset will yo be if we stuff up another trade /draft, nor is it How upset will you be if we are still this cr4p this time next year. Its simply asks about how you will be if we finish last. In the context of that I and many others just dont give a rats for the simple reason it doesnt matter. It affects my esteem not. It causes me no loss of sleep , it adds no more ridicule upon me that this club hasnt already by association ( that and pity ) So nothing will change to me So it doesnt matter to me

There's probably 40 odd players and a wagon load of staff professionals for whom it ought to matter a great deal. Go ask them, Go get their answers. But dont pour disgrace upon me or others for simply accepting ( again ) a poor result, one I add thats totally out of my ability to affect or change.

If you are that emotionally attached to a result of a sports club you may wish to seek greater joys in other pursuits and interests for the MFC is bound to let you down for some time to come I suspect

Mate...its just bloody footy

Don't howl me down but it wouldn't worry me one little bit.

We can guarantee the player we get in the PSD.

We could probably do a deal for a player with GWS, for not picking a certain player in the draft, thereby giving us a free player/pick.

We would probably have pick 2 if Chip leaves which could be traded for a slightly lower pick and another player ala the Tyson/Salem deal.

We could probably guarantee Stretch coming with a 3rd round pick as no one would probably offer a 1st round pick.

No. it wouldn't worry me at all.

I am not howling Redleg

But I hate even this talk let anone wishing for it.

The strategy I hated five years ago and I hate it just as much now.

Win, Win, Win, Win, Win and then use the picks we have to the best advantage.

IMHO that is the old way to fly

Hope that was not a HOWL

Not wishing, not caring OD.

But the bottom 3 teams are all 'hoping', and widely canvassed in the press in the case of St Kilda - who are hoping against hope for a gallant loss this weekend.

Its not really a case of wishing it OD...just accepting that should that occur there will be opportunities. They vary according to outcome..It just...is

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
