Brock McLean

Just read that tasman guy who does the big training reports on bigfooty mentioned that apparently we could be seriously looking at Brock McLean as a possible rookie selection.

Why would he want to join a club that tanked?

There are some things in life that I can believe.

This is not one of them.

 

Take him. Proven midfielder, gives his all and at worst would be a depth player for 2 years. Like it or not he would be in our best 22


Its Dec 1 not April 1

I see this as a direct replacement for Trengove who will head straight to the long term injury list.

Im definitely not against the idea of him back at the club. We still need another mature head to help ease and guide these young kids who have just come in.

 

What was his form like in 2014?

Saw very few Carlscum games. I have better things to do

He joined Calrton, didn't he?


He joined Calrton, didn't he?

Think that was the point of the post :)

I'd take him. Useful midfield depth when we've got injuries or need to give the kids a rest.

Used to be my favourite player.

Tanking aside I reckon he loves the club. Wasn't he the only player to donate to the club from his own pocket.

If he was in the side, he would be taking the place of others I would prefer to be playing. We drafted Cross and Vince to help out Jones as the seniors in the midfield - I don't think we need another.

past history aside, i can't see any point in it

and anyway didn't he just hate the trip to casey fields

Except that the "Donation" was actually a penalty for doing burnouts after training in the car park.


I used to love Brock when he played for us......I think he has slowed down a lot (not that he was ever fast)....I think others have past him by and I think this would be a backward step.........I think the same for Sylvia as well.....

its a nice romantic thought but then you remember the On The Ouch interview and the [censored] he dropped us in

But maybe we should be thanking him because without that interview we may have never got rid of Schwab and co..

I'd be furious, for non-football reasons.


I don't think he'd be able to get a game ahead of our kids, really [censored] him

It would have been much more difficult.

What Brock said on the couch was correct.

Whether he should have said it is another issue.

But it was a "No pain No gain" scenario

Somebody had to talk....

 

He couldn't hack the drive to Casey five years ago - the trip won't be any easier next year.

Maybe he's moved into the area.

If Brock were to come back to the club it would be more about getting experience at Casey which is badly needed. I couldn't really see him pushing for senior selection now.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
