After another disappointing year by MFC he will seek success elsewhere

Well basing your opinion that we will have a poor year will lead to Clarry leaving is not a great reason for that to happen.
Zhe might win our B and F and be happy if we make the 8 !!!

    There was a lot of smoke about his tenure at the end of last season. Carlton were into him big time. He is out of contract at the end of this year. Do you honestly think that there will not be HUGE interest in him from most other clubs? His manager will be fielding massive offers. All footballers crave the ultimate success, a premiership. Can he get it with us? We have been dealt a massive hit with the loss of Brown and Weideman, and I just don’t think we can conjure a winning score without those two key forwards. Do you? So we will struggle to win games early to mid season, kiss finals goodbye because history tells us that you need early runs on the board. Hence my opinion that after another fruitless year, Clayton will seriously consider his options, especially when they have big bucks attached.

    No bobby I don't share your pessimism about kicking goals. It's a bit harder but I have faith in the new Coaches  and young players That should be selected.

    Could be fake optimism but we won't be one dimensional like previously and our smalls are exciting prospects and training well.

    Please  read dome of my posts Showing why so am very bullish about our mids and ruck connecting much better and playing team footy.

    Natural Improvement in  Lockhart Lever Rivers Fritsch Jacko Kossie and a resurgence in form from Harmes and Tommy Mac would add goals to our score plus Gus and Jack will be better with Ooze as coach of the mids.

    Half glass full not empty is my mantra !

    Position in 8 sure but Top4 not out of the question given Good injury runand game plan improvement .

    Clarry won't leave if he is rewarded with a new contract till his FA occurs if we show we are On the ball.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Adelaide

      Noffy, Hatchy and Randy lead Adelaide’s finals-hardened flock to IKON Park for a blockbuster semi-final against Kate Hore and Hanksy’s mighty Demons.  Adelaide has dropped four of its past five matches at this ground — let’s hope that trend holds.  But don’t expect charity — Doc Clarke brings an experienced, battle-worthy murder of Crows.
