Me too. He’s always telling me the reason for something or that something is about to happen.

Very helpful.

    Again, this has NOTHING to do with players. 
    And again, I feel sorry for fans who have the “Flag or Bust” mentality.

    For me it has always been about Premierships. Nothing more nothing less!

    Nah I feel sorry for anyone that doesn’t want their club winning every flag. I don’t care who plays for the clubs I follow, if they’re criminals, [censored] etc, as long as they win for the club. Premierships are all that matters & the people that think otherwise were part of the reason our club was one of the worst sporting club in the country year after year.Too many people accepted mediocrity for far to long & it not only cost the club wins, it cost them decades of supporters & future members.

    Geez you’re damned if you do and you’re damned if you don’t!

    Too many times ppl misquote or misinterpret or read between the lines of other people’s comments. And they’re taken to task for it.

    So I quote him verbatim, and with zero ambiguity and I’m likewise having to explain. 
    He said “it’s all about flags and nothing else” which I took to mean it’s all about flags and nothing else, ergo I feel sorry for him. 

    That's right, but you're smarter than a lot of people too. 

    Let's face it though, people talk in absolutes all the time here. Eg. We ALWAYS bomb it in, we NEVER use the corridor, Brown hasn't taken a mark in years. It's everywhere unfortunately.

    For a guy who has supposedly already signed a deal with Freo, he seems pretty invested. Was braving the wet at Casey to watch the VFL boys play, has been posting pics of the win on his Insta... I don't know, something doesn't add up.

    He could possibly have just 2 games left with the MFC, but he isn't acting like someone who has already checked out. 

    He seems like a pretty "in the moment" kind of guy - like Barassi said decades ago "my heart is wherever I am" or words to that effect.

    What is this supposed to mean?! ⬆️ 

    I hope I’m mistaken, but it sounds patronising. Totally uncharacteristic of you so I’ll be shocked and disappointed if that’s the case.

    Don’t reply… don’t reply… don’t reply…

    Whoops, too late. I’m replying.
     

    I hereby apologise for thinking premierships are NOT all that matters (sic) and thereby being part of the reason our club was one of the worst sporting club (sic) in the country year after year. 

    Henceforth, in terms of my beloved Club, I shall only accept Premierships. Anything less is simply unacceptable.

    He's gone but he likes everyone to be his mate... not uncommon and he's probably well advised to avoid... you know what

    No, there was no ill intentions whatsoever. Pretty surprised at this response myself and I think you're jumping to conclusions.

    I'm sorry I said anything.

    I've just phoned the club and asked if the boys could wear the redback jumper this week in a gesture of support.

    One would assume that @Webber might have something to say about this.

    Yep……grrrrrrr.

    Some people here really need to get a grip. People are trying to discuss what means the most to them and other people are more keen on starting arguments for no reason based on a couple of words they said.

    I'm in this for flags, as much as I'm in this for a winning season, making the finals and so forth. I don't need to remain loyal to Jackson if he goes and I'm not interested if someone is sorry for me if I have that view. If people want to bully me or others on a message board for having that opinion then that says more about them than it does me.

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It’s Game Day, and 205 days have passed since the final siren sounded at the MCG, bringing Melbourne’s 2025 season to a close and marking the end of an era. In just a few hours, a new chapter begins for the Demons. What are you most hoping to see from Melbourne today?

      The boys previewed the 2026 Season sharing their early impressions of the new coach, the new players, observations from preseason training, and what they've made of the new game style. They also look ahead to the season with their predictions, the players they expect to rise, their expectations for the team, and what they see as a realistic pass mark for Melbourne in 2026.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.
