Why?  They didn't finish the job!  Our club, our football team, the team we love so much, the team who has not won a premiership since 1964, is enough reason for this to be so important.  This game was born in Melbourne, we are one of the pioneers of the sport, this sport we treat as a religion.  Paul and Peter, you will have let us down badly, if we are not in a better position than when you left us, and sadly, at this time this is how it is.

They handed over a profitable football club with a finals ready list. they 100% did their job. and i think we should all be extremely grateful because people so easily forget how bad things were under Mark Neeld.

controversial! 

 

Wow ? and to think some people hassle me on here for certain posts. 

This one is right up there...

 

How about The MFC take responsibility for itself and actually learn to fight for the most beneficial outcomes....

IMO Roos would have delivered a flag by now or at least in 2019. But not his fault for current predicament. 

Blaming the past is a favorite demon supporter pastime. Right now, the blame sits no where else but with the current Football department, and by that i mean, coaches and players. They  have failed miserably this year. and teh flat earthers around here can blame others but its on them. And they should know it.

This is a stretch... and that’s being generous.

I would rather blame global warming

I'll be blaming solar maximums.

And the Liberal Party.

Boris Johnson for sure!!

Turbulence is forecast...!

Peter Jackson did an excellent job turning around the MFC's financial situation in my opinion.

I wouldn't mind Paul Roos hanging around more, however his contracted finished, and he has his own life to live and is back involved doing media stuff now.

Nevertheless, in the end the buck stops with Simon Goodwin. If we are in the same position this time next year then heads will roll...sad but true. I genuinely hope Simon Goodwin can turn things around as I am certainly sick of being disappointed.

 

 

There has to be collective responsibility for the loss of Howe and Dunn.  There has to be collective responsibility for the lack of outside speed.  We also blinked when negotiating with Adelaide (2 first rounders in a super-draft), and to a lesser extent Freo.

 

 

Roos and Jackson were both appointed for a limited time, after the AFL intervened.

We were lucky to have them both for the time we did.

The foundations were laid by them, and its now up the the replacements to follow through.

None of what is happening this year is their fault.

Nothing.

I definitely agree there.

Which is why I believe that a large number of MFC members will be demanding a total in depth review of the football department at this year's 2019 MFC AGM. If enough of us make a big deal out of it then it will happen.

Please tell me you don’t have Boris Derangement Syndrome. At least he’s not anti science
