I earnestly wait for the day, like Geelong Hawthorn Sydney and even Collingwood fans, where we refuse to consider the rear view mirror, where we look to our new victories and opportunities and expect rather than wish. Even Bulldog fans have a new found enthusiasm for what lies ahead. Maybe the change lies with us, a conscious group effort to kick the black cat (thanks McQueen) and stop wallowing in the swamp of poo that we previously enjoyed doing backstroke in.

It's time for the new world order where power clubs are challenged, where the MFC rises to a position to genuinely say, "why not us?" and deliver upon the promise held.

Salutè!

(Obviously had a few....)

So obviously a Geelong, Hawthorn, Sydney, and even Collingwood supporter will NEVER look back and note how good a player was in a game from 2009 and wonder about his decline from 2011 to 2016.

This wasn't/isn't a post about the Melbourne Football Club or its journey, it was meant as a sympathetic post about a man who served the cub admirably, whose performances declined over the years. 

Salute! to you.

Christ, posts like this are why I haven't been posting much. If you want a thread about Mark Neeld, open one. This isn't it.

When was this ever about Mark Neeld????? It was raised as a toast to Jack Grimes and what a great and promising player he was in that game against West Coast in 2009.
