Sadly I cannot tonight tU about to be locked up and with my Grand daughters tonight for the last time in 4 weeks and believe it or not they are more important to me than the MFC. I will listen later tonight or tomorrow. Yes I know what tonight is and I will be keen to see if hard questions are asked. I still stay with my statement that MFC members are too polite.

Good luck OD - enjoy your evening with the family. By the way - did you call in to SEN today? Breakfast Show?

Outstanding interview with G. Bartlett.  Thanks guys!

Is learning it's lessons, a lesson or a learning?

Hi John. As far as I'm aware the word learning is a single noun and can't be used in a plural sense. To me it sounds as silly as someone offering their thinkings on a subject instead of their thoughts.

This interview was prerecorded as is my preference with guests. the second part of the podcast where @Grapeviney , @george_on_the_outer & I will discuss the Geelong match.

Its been 3 weeks in a row now the MFC have kept teams under 10 goals.

is this now a trend?

Is this one obvious place we've improved from 2020?

Ha! No - it was a Melbourne supporter, who was about to go into lockdown away from his grandkids - weird huh?!

Fantastic interview

I agree serious depth Club is in good hands - I was surprised how much detail he gave and he didn’t hide from the targets or make any excuses.

Might be I missed my five minutes of fame 3183 Dee. Just home from the visit, they don’t live far from me but might well be 50 km now.

Still getting over all the crying when it was leaving time. They spent a lot of time with us and both sides are not happy but would rather be alive for them in the future.

Very tough mate - my parents in England live next door to my sister and her 4 kids - they haven’t been able to give the kids a hug for about 3 months now. Crazy times - I wish you and your family all the very best.

Do we know how many listeners the interview had.

Live is hard judge exact numbers because people obviously filter in and out. There were anywhere between 50 & 70 at a time. 

 Most of our listeners end up coming from Apple Podcasts and Android Podcasting apps as well as those that stream from SoundCloud on the site. After a week or two I’ll have clearer numbers. 

Thanks for organising the interview- great to hear progress on site near the G


Fairly clear it will not be an MCG sized oval if and when the Development near the G gets up.

Goodwin has a free pass for his contract term.

We need to be patient on all fronts .

Oh, yes, and that is a very good question, did I say I like being involved with the big end of town and chose the Dees as my vehicle to do just that, um, um, could you give us some money.

Very good interview well done to all involved. Sounds like Bartlett is committed to delivering us our 13th flag, and sounds like our home base is also a main objective which is brilliant. Go Dees

what planet are you on? none of this is true

great work @Demonland

 Certainly exciting news about our HQ with social club within walking distance of the G, Bartlett sounded confident. Any guesses which areas?

Glad you raised this Rab, a jargon or buzzword whose repeated use has irritated listeners here. Annoyingly it appears to be spreading. According to discussion on English Language and Usage ,  "Actually, learnings sounds terrible to native English speakers. I never heard of it being used at all until I worked with people from India."  Perhaps propagators of its usage should be called Guru Bob or similar.

Its etymology, grammatically correct or otherwise, can be traced in print at least to Shakespeare. In  Cymbeline (1623) i. i. 43 The king..Puts to him all the Learnings that his time... as coach allows

What?!

I’m sorry that you are so cynical.

Excellent interview Guys. Thankyou

Glen answered most of what i wanted to hear and that is fine, he is a little bit more confident in the current gamestyle than i, so i will wait to see what transpires 

I just dont want to watch 60 i50’s for 6-7 goals each week. It’s rubbish, and that gamestyle has been with us for quite a while. 
 

but once again Great Interview

That's great detective work TC. My guess as the culprit would have been the USA and it's sports codes. However quite a few words that we consider to have been misspelt, mispronounced or bastardised by our american friends have actually been traced back to old english so I shouldn't be surprised really.

That was my phone. Had put DO NOT DISTURB on so have no idea how that slipped through. Bloody iPhones.

Good work on the podcast.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

  • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
