I'm glad we move on quickly around here... :wacko:

OD,is still lamenting the loss of "fast Freddie Phillips the 3rd in 1908.

Wonder where he'll head after Geelong finally fall in a heap, once their premiership players finally drop off the perch.

Clark has already shafted 3 clubs, why not four ?

 

His tweets about getting behind the cats and the fans down there in Geelong,actually make me feel sick.....no time for this bloke.

The very same tweets I was reading this time last year "can't wait to get out there with the boys" etc.

Insincere and sickening.

I heard this on the radio late last year, Clark has done the opposite to Moloney. He's gone from Brisbane to Melbourne to Geelong (Monoley did the oppositie order). What does this have to do with anything? Nothing, but I found it interesting.

Moloney didn't shaft a third club on the way through.

I think my favourite quote was something along the lines of: "All the boys want the same thing. To win games."

What a unique thing for a team to unite over.

I would like to know why he didn't come back to the dees, was it money, lack pf success, personal conflict etc, does anyone on this wretched sight of malcontents able to shed any light on this matter, thankyou

 

Mitch is no longer a Demon I have no care for him anymore. My interest in him is when they play us and I hope we contain him otherwise he is irrelevant to me.

I wish him no personal harm nor do I wish to see him be a great success on the field at the Cats

Time to move on.

The old saying "You can't worry about who you haven't got, you can only worry/control those who you do have" is very appropriate in this circumstance

My thoughts exactly. Couldn't care less to be honest


Yes we did not want him anymore, the day he said he was retiring was when he told the club he did not want to play with the Dees, once that happened he was never coming back, when he told the club this they tried to talk him round, at that point he turned his back on us, Clark tweeting saying" how do u know they did not want me is a lie, it's a classic defence response, make the victim the bad one, many rapists use this even murders will try and make the victim look like they deserved it.

A chemical unbalance in the brain...might have a bit to do with it.

It's over as far as I am concerned. There is no point in dwelling on him, Chip or Voldemort (who I was annoyed with). I have no ill will towards Chip at all.
It's not my place to say whether Mitch suffered or not.
I do however have reservations about him going to Geelong.
Firstly, he may be coming back too early if his diagnosis is correct. I also wonder if he has actually been to Geelong before he was traded there. The place is a fishbowl and the Geelong Addy nothing more than a glorified magazine for Cats fans..
Secondly, I do have some issues with how he left. We support him in his decision to 'retire' then he is back in four months wanting a trade.
Something smells a bit funny.
I am not going to go into speculation about where Mitch was at when he pulled the pin. However, I don't like how the aftermath of that has played out.

Why does everyone insist on besmirching Voldemort's name all the time? That character was many things, but he wasn't a traitor; nor did he have much interest in money. He lied a little, but that wasn't what he was known for. You might even say he was an idealist, and that's more than you can say for Tom Scully.

Voldemort used the cruciatus curse a little too much for my liking and whilst Lilly and James Potter were fair game, trying to take out a first gamer in Harry was just beyond the pale as far as I am concerned.

Actually, taking this even further of track for a moment, the Voldemort connection runs possibly deeper than we all thought. Voldemort's prior name was Tom Riddle and it has now passed over to one Tom Scully. It could be more than just the desire not to mention his name that landed Scully with this label. A riddle can be something that challenges belief... according to the urban dictionary a scully is an expression of disbelief or something/someone that cannot be believed.

That's either quite spooky, or I have finally tumbled over the edge.

Voldemort had a lot of natural talent, but wouldn't stick to team rules, never ran anywhere (let alone two ways) and would always fly for the mark, even when a spoil was the percentage play. He had no right foot, often got into trouble abroad, and would start punch-ups behind play. He had a big enough, ego, though for the entire Essendon team .. :)

I'm tipping a bit of both.

I really really want us to play against him, Frosty on him, continually beating him one on one and getting the ball out to H, while TMAC runs Dorkins ragged. Imagine if we beat them!?

 

I rate Mitch very highly. When he was fit he was by far our best player. I believe if he does get physically and mentally fit he will win the Coleman Medal. Consider how good he would be with Geelong midfield supply and Hawkins beside him which would not allow Mitch to be double teamed. Its a scary thought.

What are the chances of Mitch being physically and mentally fit? From his historical record the chances are low............... but I have a bad feeling.

I have no time for him as a person, but I think he's going to smash it next season. The Cats fans will love him just the same as we did.

He'll be the difference that helps them into yet another finals series.

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.

  • NON-MFC: Round 06

    The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.
