Oh well, lets just reward our current players/future draft picks/trade acquisitions with a nice new facility in the future, if Chris didn't want to hang around and wait then so be it.

If this is the real reason we were knocked back then his defection to Collingwood must be a mere formality because Carlton aren't in a better position than us at the present time.

Life goes on and I'm still looking forward to seeing Dean Bailey take the reigns and develop these boys like he believes he can.

Also I think it has been mentioned in many posts on this thread and others; Please Steve Harris stop being flattered by being taken into consideration with the big 3 Victorian clubs, I find it somewhat insulting, lets just move forward and work at building the club into a force it deserves to be.

P.S

While I am disappointed that my favourite player outside the MFC decided against joining us, its also a bit hard to think he may become a member of the filth, I struggled showing an interest when "you know who" traded his red v into black and white stripes, sorry Chris that bridge has been burnt.

Look at who just won the flag in emphatic style on the weekend.

It wasn't a club that sought out a single superstar player to fix their ills.....it was a gun team developed over time.

No bottoming out, no playing for draft picks, no chasing one messiah player or one messiah coach..........it was hard work, vision, planning, focus, and commitment that won the flag for the Cats, and it's the same combination that will win a flag for us.

Good luck to Judd......sorry he didn't come, but we have a chance to add the 4th best young player in the land to our list, and a list full of emerging talent.

Bring on 2008!

I am disappointed, more for the fact he would have bought sponsors and memberships with him from which we could re build the MFC Empire. I think we should still offer the pies the number 4 draft pick for pendelbury.

We aren't angry over the fact he didn't choose us. It is the parting insult that is infuriating. Shows him to be a money hungry, attention seeking princess.

with all due respect Brocky

none of us know what he wrote in that letter..or its context.. so what does it really matter.

the issue of training facilities to me is a non issue .. his manager would have fully known our position, so its inclusion anywhere is bemusing I concede.

He has his own reasons... what does it really matter..really ??

im not insulted.. i dont really give a rats..

all over red rover...next

Im dissappointed - but primarily because I just think its about time the Dees picked up someone instead of the usual teams - just to even the playing field...

But at the end of the day I think our forward and backlines are where we need to improve - Im sure Judd would have been great, but not long ago I was raving about Acker being a good thing for our club. Thank christ that didnt pan out...

Add to that a coach who believed in his players and just let them play without being too tactical or technical.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
