Pert has got huge shoes to fill. 

What a fantastic administrator.

    His plan is what has put us where we are.  He quietly went about implementing it by getting good people into admin and football roles.

    He delivered on what he promised:  Finals in 2017 (we almost got there).  Win one in 2018 (nailed that one!)  As he said "We've knocked one over and we've got three to go...Anything's possible for this team,"

    So happy the team has had some finals success during his tenure and he can directly participate in it; be the 'face' of it.  So richly deserved.

    Words can't do justice to what PJ has done for the Melbourne Football Club.  He deserves formal recognition.  Life Membership would be appropriate.

    He will go own as one of the most important figures in the MFC history, I'm sure he must have had a feeling of pride when he looked out at the crowd on Friday night.

    Some of the fan-made Youtube clips reviewing the bad times reminded me of what he did back when he took over. He sat next to Neeld in the presser after he fired him and said we're dragging the competition down. He was there for arguably the worst time, just before he got Roos and the new Dawn began. He's gonna be missed in his role.

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.
