"this joint" . . . as in the MFC?

Nowhere near as bad as Linton Street I would have thought. 

That's a debatable subject.

    Poisoned chalice this joint.

    Like the nose beer, rapey thing they've got happening in Seaford/Moorabin is good for his career.

    Ex Melbourne footballers who want a viable successful career in football after they retire go elsewhere like to Hawthorn. Ex other club footballers who want a viable career in football also go elsewhere. Unless there is an overs pot of gold on offer to offset what would likely be a truncated career.

    Nothing stopping you from going somewhere else

    I never said he should go to the saints.
    It's a strange decision.
    Both clubs are basket cases.

    I would have thought 12 flags and 12 wooden spoons compares favourable against 1 flag and 27 wooden spoons.

    They've won a flag more recently than MFC. And played in GFs more recently than us ... came very close to winning one too. Unlike MFC's 2 grand final debacles.

    Pfft .... Ancient history those flags.
    I'd argue they don't count since we went from VFL to AFL.

    So whats the latest with Roughy, have Goody, Lewey, Toddy and Mahoney met with him and made an offer? 

    Some muppet on the interweb suggested he might go to the Saints. Last time I checked you don't need 4 x premierships to light dwarfs on fire, bed underage school girls and lose a Grand Final in October.

    Roughy is champ - no doubt about

    He’s also been through some tough personal [censored]. So apart from knowing a bit about footy he also knows a bit about resilience 

    Bonus.  He seems to be a decent bloke

    Yep.  I’d have him as a forward line coach in a flash!

    Yep from me too as above.

    Saw a VFL game where he gave some coaching to one of his opponents which seemed to

     improve their performance. This was mentioned by commentators.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.
