I think many posters are confusing tonight's event with the AGM. 
The B&F is tightly scripted. It begins with highlights of the first six rounds and vote totals are posted.
A number of awards are presented eg Jim Stynes Community involvement award etc. Very short speeches.
Another six rounds of highlights and votes.
A meal break.
More presentations and a speech by the Pres. It'll be very positive without controversy I suspect.
More highlights and votes.
More presentations - best first year player etc.
Goodwin's speech - all positive, nothing controversial.
Final rounds and tallies.
I've attended more than a dozen going back to the nineties (run at Melbourne Town Hall with about 300 in attendance).
That includes the Neeld years - a very depressing few years but you wouldn't have known it as the B&F was all positives.
Previous years have seen the club song sung with gusto at the end. Not sure that will happen tonight.
I can't see a donnybrook breaking out. Any attempt by an attendee to ask a question will be shut down.
 

True. Ive been to a few in the past as well. The issues in the media cannot be ignored as they relate to players Trac and Clarry who are so important to our club and who are contracted for a long time.

The president as an ex player has an excellent opportunity to make a statement that puts the speculation to bed.

    Server will crash 2 minutes in, with the amount of people tuning in to the next episode of "MFC - our life in shambles".

    The program may be closely scripted, but anytime you have a room full of unhappy supporters it's going to be unpredictable.

    Mickey your assuming that everyone follows DLand.

    I have it on good authority that Sam MaClure has placed a bug under Gary Pert’s plate and, not to be outdone, Sam Edmund has placed one in a urinal cake

    What should he say ? The real situation as best can and will be solved ? The Media Gossip ?The spin doctor approach? Give an honest statement of generalities and guarantee to put a stop to it? Resign and ask for a Presidential nomination from the floor from Demonland.? Ask if WCW is still alive and available to mediate as she loves/likes Clarry like we all mostly do and want to keep him? 

    I don’t think hardly any/ or many of these questions will be answered except for a short statement the club can give on the situation which might be hopefully solved today in negotiations/ discussions with  Clarry his Manager and the Club to go forward.

    Your source got it slightly wrong. It's Tom Morris, and he's come dressed as a urinal cake.

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
