Wonder if Greg Healy would make an ok ceo? 

 

let's dredge the complete list of former MFC on-field/off-field leaders to see if we can cough up someone to take over. We can find out if they are remotely interested in the position after we complete the character assassination of the current crew!

    I dont think you can credit roffey and pert with that feat. They almost fell into it as a result of the flag in 2021. You could argue they were at the helm when the numbers plateaud and fell in the years that followed. 

    You could also argue that it happened in their watch and can't they get credit for anything?

     

    More to the point, I have been arguing that the supposed requests by Trac are incorrect if not fabricated. I doubt very much if he would have made the distinction that you are trying to make. I have made other arguments in support of my view as well.

    i'd almost prefer liam ryan

    speedy forwards who put it on the scoreboard and pressure defensively are the key part of modern footy it would seem

    Hopefully Oscar Allen

    Brace yourself. If you've ever been irritated by a celebrity doing a FIFO 'awareness raising' photoshoot, you'll choke on your vomit by the time you know the full Theresa story.

    Christian will be attending the Red Bull training camp overseas rather than attending the B&F.

    Melbourne will look back on their 2024 season at the club’s best and fairest count in early October, but Christian Petracca won’t be there. JAY CLARK explains why.

    Why Petracca will skip Demons’ B&F

    From the POV that he’s training, and under a program of monitoring and watchful eyes, great. Hard injuries to return from and if he’s doing his utmost to tick the boxes that gets him confident and capable of returning to footy, fantastic. Hope it’s smooth sailing and a resounding success. All the best, trac 🤞🏻

    Seems pretty excited to get back into it. Will be good for him after how slowly he had to progress his training post-surgery.

    Admittedly, I have never attended a B&F but the fans do get the chance to occasionally mingle with the odd player don't they?

    It's pretty sad to say, but I'm actually a bit thankful he won't be there just out of fear of a fan, downing a few too many chardonnays and getting a bit 'passionate' towards Christian and maybe whoever he takes to the night.

    Might be best just to stay away for now, get himself 100% for next year and allow everyone to fall in love again once he starts playing wonderful footy and we start winning some more games.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
