Former MFC President Joe Gutnick calls to make club-shaking moves

Featured Replies

Mark Robinson reporting in a Herald Sun article that former MFC President Joseph Gutnick met current President Brad Green, apparently to make the following suggestions:-

● MAKING the disgruntled Christian Petracca the heir apparent to skipper Max Gawn.
● STRONGLY endorsing Green as the permanent president;
● URGING a settlement in the bitter legal dispute between the club and former president Glen Bartlett
● KEEPING under-fire chief executive Gary Pert.

According to Joe:

"I told Brad that if I was president I would ask the coach to move on," Gutnick said.

"I know there would be players who wouldn't agree with me, however, 100 per cent of the supporters I'm friends with, both Jewish and non-Jewish, think he should move on.

"Melbourne needs a rejuvenation and injection and that's one of the ways to do it."

Pity that Robbo hasn’t taken the trouble to do a fact check on the claim which sounds ludicrous to me. I’m Jewish and have friends who support the club who are both Jewish and non-Jewish and zero per cent of my friends have suggested they hold that belief.

The person who I believe should move on is Gutnick himself - I once supported the bloke but that was 20 years ago. Today, he has zero credibility when it comes to football.

 

Err, ok, then.

As Kamala would say - “we’re not going back.”

who gives a F what Joe thinks?

 

so joe invites greeny to lunch, does all the talking, then rings up robbo to tell him what he told greeny

greeny should be more careful who he has lunch with.  first lesson for new pres.


Bizarre that Brad Green would even reach out to Joe or even take the time to sit down and seek advice..

Laughable.

Maybe he’s trying to get him to donate to the new training ground… 😂

Or get him to pay out the balance of the pledge he made when he became pres?

Just another sniper on the Herald-Sun grassy knoll. 


Both Jewish AND non-Jewish... well, that settles it.

Seriously, I had my doubts about Green having the nous for this position, even in a temporary capacity. This certainly doesn’t settle my nerves.

Like why make a distinction of supporters belief system. What relevance does that have with anything?

A Preview before a Review?

Isn't that just a view?


Gee there's a reason to be concerned that the old boys' club has finally won its way back into influence over the last month. Why is Brad Green meeting with Joe [censored] Gutnik? Is he gonna sit down with each of us amd get our opinions? 

I know there’d be some 'Landers who might not agree with me, but I can confidently say that 100% of the supporters I’m friends with—whether they're in Queanbeyan or not—are absolutely clueless about what Joe is on about. It's like he's speaking in a code that only he understands, and the rest of us are just nodding along, pretending we get it!

That was quick!!

Presumably we are in the middle of a review. Let's get it done eh?


Joe has a very interesting history. I wouldn't be taking any advice from him on football matters.

What next ?  Getting Cam Schwab back as an advisor !!

I’m an atheist and all of my atheistic, agnostic, and believer friends, think that Joe has lost the plot.

 

Apparently the topic of conversation shifted to Harrison Petty over dessert, with Joe adamant he should be moved back. Green was seen feverishly taking notes on a Smiggle notebook. 

Wonder how they rate the Petracca Parma

  • 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.

    Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.
