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?

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?

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.

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

 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

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.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo.
