That i would Colin. Up until last week Ollie hadn't missed a game including 2 Final series.

And some people are hammering me!!!

We have some deadset soft supporters

If it makes you feel any better I'm sure BBO would be prepared to let you deliver a good beating with a long stick in order to get your anger out.....

I would never trash anybody who works for one of the most under funded footy departments ( development departments ) - recruiting departments in the AFL. ( All be it we have improved in this area thanks to funding from the AFL )

What is done is done. Last time I looked Jimmy T was running around in a Red & Blue jumper and thats good enough to get my 100% support.

Fair go mate. That kind of support is what Satyr gives out.

I want Top End September action before i leave the planet. Last time i looked Jimmy T was wearing a Scorps jumper, because he absolutely crapped himself in front of goal.

I am with you, but you got to let that go now.

This is a new era. Different, more competent recruiters.

This era would have picked the ready made bull over the timid rabbit.

Shut up stuie.

Think you are missing something "I would never trash anybody who works for one of the most under funded footy departments ( development departments ) - recruiting departments in the AFL. ( All be it we have improved in this area thanks to funding from the AFL )"

If you want Top end September action you first better get your hand in your pockets or hope enough other MFC supporters are going to do the biz for you.

Let's hope Todd gives a full explanation tonight then hey.

We the shareholders deserve it.

I hope Mike is reading all this before he goes to air as background!!!

GET STUCK IN MIKE :)

You have no idea how many $$$ i have donated to the MFC.

But you just keep tucking little Jimmy T into bed each night. Make sure he is warm enough.

Meanwhile our midfield is smashed when put under ANY pressure.

Its not all about you SWYL. You need a large community to give. Sadly we have a small community giving . Unless we can reinvent the MFC quickly things are going to be tight for many years to come.

You want to feel better? Nothing he says will make you feel better.

Get behind Toumpas. He is one of ours. Wines is not.

I'll be staggered if Mike asks this. I'd be surprised if he even knows it occurred. Todd Viney filling in as chief recruiter for a year is an asterisk at the bottom of a page; nobody but die-hard MFC teeth-gnashers know or care that Viney recruited for us or who he picked or who he didn't pick.

There are a lot of interesting aspects to the Viney tale Mike could cover, and this definitely isn't one of them.

None of us are shareholders. You've got tickets on yourself.

We saw (again) yesterday arguably the best player of a generation: Nat Fyfe - wasn't even taken in the first round.

The draft = informed guesswork. Very happy with Todd's work.

And what would that be Frosty?

I was just dialoguing that classic scene from A few good men with Jack Nicholson and Tom Cruise. You want the truth "Sir Why You Little" about why Toumpas over Wines I agree we all want to hear this little pearler.

I want the truth about why you have gone incognito Frosty

Sorry Bitter trying to put up another image to try and improve my popularity on here. Any suggestions?

Because Toumpas was the standout choice at the time. Toumpas has proven to be an ordinary selection but recruiters don't get the benefit of hindsight.

FWIW, you were one of the 148 Demonlanders who voted Toumpas.

SS your favourite players are all duds. Time for an edit mate

Mike should confirm if the Mark Neeld/lollies in the coach's box story and the story of his run in with Stefan Martin are true.

Anything except for that creepy photo of the guy with a beard you had before FD.

Can I suggest Kenny Powers?

Sorry mate, but he blew a 10 year Brownlow prospect

I want to know why

Because predicting the future remains impossible, no matter how loudly critics will squeal if you make a mistake.

I hear you squealing, but it has changed nothing, and will change nothing. But you keep at it, buddy. Everybody loves a broken record.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.
