A great man once said, "I'll predict anything except the future." Well, okay, he wasn't great, just my colleague, an aging Scot with German roots who enjoys fish 'n' chips as much as any Aussie. Even so, I'm going to have a go:

At some point in the next few days, in a media conference, it will be brought to Simon Goodwin's attention that this week there has been a lot of discussion in the media about the MFC. Simon will reply that moving into the hub has helped them to "shut out noise" or words to that effect. Oh, and there will of course be "learnings," "looking to the future," and other glib phrases which signal that he is failing to deal with the issues which he has been dismissing in this way for a very long time.

A quote I would like to hear from him is this: "Never again!"

    Any coach would say it @Grr-owl, it was telegraphed as soon as the article was written. That's ok, it's the language of coaches and football departments.

    Yeah. It must be a trope. They just roll it out.... 

    Add to the impression that MFC isn't serious in confronting its shortcomings. Automatic dishonesty. I mean, the last thing I want to hear is that they are ignoring the noise. There's a lot of truth in that noise, and ignoring it is dumb.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.

    • NON-MFC: Round 7

      Round 7 is here, with the ANZAC commemoration games taking centre stage. Who are you tipping this week, and which results would be most favourable for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      Who would have imagined, when the season kicked off early last month, that Melbourne would emerge from the opening six weeks with wins over both Queensland powerhouses? At the time, Gold Coast and Brisbane were the competition’s early pace-setters, the flavours of the month, and the prospect of the Demons toppling both within the course of a fortnight seemed remote. Yet here they are, banking those scalps alongside home victories over two traditional Victorian rivals and building a quietly impressive resume.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees hit the big Friday night stage for the first and only time this season when they take on the Tigers under lights on ANZAC Eve at the G. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      Before Sunday, the last time the Brisbane Lions had walked onto the turf of the Melbourne Cricket Ground, they celebrated the pinnacle of the sport - an AFL premiership secured in emphatic fashion for the second consecutive year.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      From the outset, the Casey Demons lacked any spring in their steps. They were out-hustled and out-bustled and finally outplayed by the Brisbane Lions by 38 points on their home turf in perfect conditions at Casey Fields.
