Well done!

Some D'landers have been questioning why he has been 'quiet'.  Hopefully, they will be now be satisfied.

There might be a joke there about audience numbers, but I'm not going to make it.

How dare you sir. The Soundcloud numbers listed on the site only include that streaming platforms numbers. It does not include Apple, Android and other Podcasting app numbers.

Well as a long term listener, chat room regular  and occasional caller that pleases me no end

I actually think it's almost a strength of Bartlett's to be almost invisible.  Not that I claim to have any inside insight into the actual state of play, but his being a low profile chairman seems to work from the perspective of providing a stable cohesive environment which lets our administrators and footy departments get on with the job.

Righto lads let’s not chit the bed on this and give him some powderpuff questions!!

Ask him how much of a pest is Saty! Kidding of course.

Great work in getting the pres on. Hopefully we can come up with some decent relevant qs.

 

Keen to hear more about the options/potential on a new home base, covid crisis and all.

Is he worried any club/MFC could fold/merge/be moved?

2020 is the year they had tagged as the year where we would be challenging for premierships in the plan, how does he think we are travelling against that?

 

The most obvious question will be an update on a home base. 
I’m not expecting anything remarkable  from him but I expect you guys to go full mongrel on him demanding clarity on it. 

obvious q's:

  • what are the plans for the home base?
  • what effect will covid have on this?
  • is casey a fallback option?
  • what are plans for additional revenue opportunities given divesting of pokie revenue?
  • what are the short-term and long-term threats of 'rona decimating clubland from a staff / list perspective?
  • if we don't make finals in 2020 does that mean a new coach in 2021? (as outlined in their own future planning documentation)
  • how frustrated are the board by team's performances, given that success off-field is to a large degree dictated by success onfield?

The inequalities in the draw (normal season) as far as the Dees always playing at Geelong and in Tasmania when compared to other Melbourne based clubs.  What does the AFL say to the club about this? What does the club say to the AFL about this? 


Apart from asking members/supporters to dig into their pockets, what other initiatives are being undertaken to claw back the loss in revenue? 

How on earth did he become a Melbourne supporter when he grew up in Perth, lived there up until about 10 years ago (so deep in his 40s), and actually play for the WCE? I don't get it. Not complaining though.

Good question why he would volunteer and waste his time with us why don’t you ask him?

Well done guys, enjoying your podcast and this is a great get.

An update on the financial position of the club and the impact caused by COVID-19 to club finances would be great.

An update on how the 5 Million requested from supporters is going, and the high level split of how it will be used to pay off debt vs strategic plan etc

Since PJ left it has all gone downhill...

Yep, gone from Champagne to River water in very short order.

Goodwin has undone all of Roosy’s work and now he has no idea what to do. 
 

Get Craig Belamey to Coach the MFC with a few Assistants 

He would sort this place out in 6 months

 

What’s a day in the life of a club president actually look like? How many hours a day/week during footy season are you working on the club?

How do you evaluate the Footy adept as a whole/as individuals? 

 

Goodwin's tenure as coach really needs to be put to Bartlett (and to not accept cop-out answers).

The board unnecessarily extended his contract for way too long, that puts us in a position that has us stuffed financially if we get rid of him early, or even more stuffed with membership retention (ultimately financially) if we don't.

Sorry RG but I don't agree while it might have some benefits inside the club from the outside it is perceived that we just roll over on anything the AFL bowls up. Most non dees supporters just see us as a weak small club without any balls. We need a bit more Eddie / Kennet in our chief. Right now the people in the outer want to know what is being done to change the team results. We have a silent Chairman and Silence CEO. Add a coach that believes in learnings. The silence is deafening.

  • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

    The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
