Alistair Clarkson 

Our greatest need, in order of priority:

A player/coach who leads by  inspiring fear, devotion, skill and consistent high standard of performance. A single dominant, magnetic individual (Barassi, Clarkson, Selwood, Hodge, Voss, Matthews, Carey)

A home base that is OURS! (should be the MCG but that ship has long sailed)

 

Our greatest need this week is a win.

the animosity towards pert amongst the mfc rank and file is extraordinary 

Just a sign of balance, that's all. Hate Goodwin, animosity for Pert, total loathing of the progress of our Club, and a great dislike for the footballing styles of TMac, and OMac.

Could we make a statement by building a floating gym and admin offices on the Yarra just near Gosch's paddock? It would be just like the new Apple store in Singapore.

[I know it will never happen.]

✔️ Very and cool left-field thinking

❌ We may not be able to handle 'the bubble'

Don't know about the greatest need, but we certainly don't need any more references to 1964, RDB, Norm Smith, blah, blah, blah. Nor that we "wrote the rules". These are about 0.5 on the percentage scale of relevance for future success.

Quite so Moonie!! For about a third of our history, i.e. the last 50 - 60 years, we have been abject [censored] ups !
