I just have to say that I thought our captain gave a great interview. Real content and comfortable, even a touch of humour.

    Continues to impress. Has definitely improved his public speaking since he first took the captaincy and looked quite shy.

    Fantastic captain and leader.

    And loyal and good character too.

    Not like his ex mates in Frawley, Rivers and Clark who wanted to chase a cheap win or 2.

    Or 14 or 16.

    The best part is, he doesn't turn every discussion into a bitter snark about the past! :rolleyes:

    You cannot compare River's to Clark and Frawley, River's left because of Mark Neeld. I was a massive fan of River's i wish he was still with us.

    I don't begrudge Rivers the move to a better side. He served our club well for ten years and realistically was never going to get deep into finals with us. In his case there really wasn't anything more to do at Melbourne except maybe help train up his replacement. That's a huge difference to Clark and Frawley. Frawley gave us one good season then chucked a wobbly, played like crap and walked out the moment his contract was up. Clark doesn't need his dubious acts listed again. Neither deserves to be mentioned in the same breath as Rivers.

    I would like to see how he handles losing pressers.

    It used to be painful to watch Trenners and Grimes front up and look like schoolboys who were about to face the principal for throwing paper planes in class. It was probably even more difficult for them as they were sitting next to Neeld who was giving an even worse account of himself.

    Rivers would've been loyal to the club if given half a chance.

    Neeld treated him very poorly and the club then low balled him on his contract.

    That period of time needs to be expunged from the club's history.

    Jonesy is supposedly going to be on SEN shortly to discuss the 2015 season.

    Perhaps true Ron, definitely poorly coached and pushed from pillar to post. Don't know about the contract negotiations but I suspect there were a number of reasons for Rivers decision to move and as we know the lure of playing in a successful side at the end of your career after years of soul destroying thrashings is very strong. Think Alves, think Wells, think Frawley. You cannot blame the player despite supporters call for loyalty. No-one wants to play year after year in a losing side. That's what makes Jones exceptional but I suspect he has been very well looked after in his recent contract negotiations. Also prefer we don't expunge this period from our history. Important to learn from history and ensure we never go back there.

    Very good again. Sounded a bit tired, but he continues to impress.

    I went to listen to that SEN interview just now (once they loaded it to their site) and it asked me to log in...

    Since when have you needed an account to listen to SEN?

    I assume SEN is a radio station. My old wireless only gets 3AR and 3LO. I think I can do without this new station unless it has literary reviews and interviews with avante garde writers. Does it cater for modernist writers or free exchange of radical or revolutionary discourse?

    Click on the interview link and it should play in the Audioboom player.

    • GAMEDAY: Brisbane

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG after a dismal performance in Gather Round to face the reigning dual Premiers Brisbane. What do expect to see from the Dees today?

    • PREVIEW: Brisbane

      They really had me fooled when I picked them with great confidence to beat the Bombers at Gather Round last week. I should have recognised that nothing is more quintessentially Melbourne than defeating the undefeated early premiership favourite one week and losing to a winless cellar dweller on its way to establishing a record losing streak the next.

      The Demons return to Melbourne and the hallowed turf of the MCG where they face dual reigning Premiers Brisbane on Sunday. Who comes in and who goes out?

      Melbourne’s much vaunted finishing power evaporated at Adelaide Oval on Saturday afternoon, exposed for the third time in four years by its Essendon Gather Round hoodoo.
