Happy Birthday Mate. We did it for you.

Can the new emblem play in the mid field?

ROFL I assume your majority don't actually watch AFL Football because they too had been staying away from games. I agree the MFC admin really sucked until now. I have a man crash on PJ.

They made the decision because they had no other option. With such disastrous on field results no one could support MN any longer. The majority of Supporter had lost faith with him as Senior Coach and the Club in general. It appears to me PJ recommended that he be removed even though he could not tell if he could coach as the performance of the tea has become toxic to the entire Club. The President and Senior Coach are the face of the Club and both have been seen to have failed. I am sure that the support offered from the AFL is contingent on these two position being replaced. Although it was not said directly by the AFL. It would be interesting what was in PJ report and recommendations. What you would have told MN on Friday night he no longer had a job? It was the best decision to wait until Monday so MN and his family could enjoy the week end. Mark must have know his end was close especially since all his supporter were vacating their positions one way or another. To be truthful there never a good time to tell someone they are no longer required. If the MFC operates as other businesses do, then MN would actual work for the CEO. If that is the case then it would be PJ role to fire MN and the board would have given PJ the funds to pay him out and replace the Senior Coach position. Standard business practice really. The MFC would not have had the funding two weeks ago to get rid of MN. There a reason that this has happen right after a meeting with the AFL.

I am starting to have a man crush on Peter Jackson. Finally someone is in charge who knows what the hell they are doing. Keep up the Excellent work Peter.

Sorry but he does not have the right qualifications to become a MFC Senior Coach. Too much experience, its much better to find someone and mould them to the way the MFC does business, just ask CW. DM or GL.

Worst VFL/AFL Senior Coach ever!!!!!!

Are you really that surprised by it?

Happy Birthday But why were you not born at the start of the footy season?

I know you are a supporter of MN as I read your many previous posts about him. But can you stop giving him these glowing endorsements as we will all think you have a man crush on him. LOL

I know it was not all MN fault that the MFC is in the trouble it is in. But I still feel that a public flogging at the next AGM is still deserved. Mr Hogans_Heroes can you use a cat of nine tails? Oh well I just have to be satified that he been so publicly sacked. Does the MFC not have lawyers who can draft contracts to protect the financial interests of its members. There must be a way not to pay MN $600K as he has been the worst Senior Coach in the history of the Club, if not the league. Bye Mark and thanks for all the memories as the Senior Coach. It will take years of intense therapy before I can truly recover. That finally said I will give my support to Craige as the new temporary Senior Coach of the MFC. As my Rant is finally over so now on to that 13th Premiership!

I thought I told them both to just WIN!

The Ox is a GOD! All hail the Ox.

Agree

This only upsets me more. I was orherwise having a great day.

Personally I am very happy that Mark Neeld is no longer the senior coach of the MFC. As far as I can tell, he was a very poor coach and his term as the senior coach for the MFC will be remebered as a disaster. Let the true recovery begin.

My vote for next coach is HOGANS_HEROES

May be a spelling issue!

LOL I will give you that one.

Pray we don't stuff it up again!

Pity Romans did not have flddles so its was not possible for Nero to play one. But never let the facts get in the way of a good story. The job of fixing the MFC is not over with Don's resignation so there nothing to celebrate at this time. However when the Club is in a position to be competative at AFL level then the recovery has really started.. People are justified to get upset with those who hold positions of authority/influence and have not been capable of performing their duties to the standard that had been expected. However there is a time to move on from where the Club is now, But noone should forget what has been done to this once great Club as this will only lead to a repeat of this terrible tragedy.

Peter Jackson?

Should we even bother to answer this one! But I am starting to understand the real problems facing the MFC. Too many people are clearly on mind effecting drugs! As they are clearly making up their own reality.

She has my vote for the next President.

Agreed I waited until the Suns game this year to call for his removal. As I wanted to give him some time to show what he can do, But now I had enough, the guys is an awful coach. He came to the MFC thinking he was hot stuff as he came from a more successful Club. But the reality is he needed to prove himself as a coach before annoying most of the then Senor Players. Some may say he needs to be given more time or at least to the end of his contract (end of next year), but what can be achieved in 18 months when currently the team is averaging about 13 goals losing scores a game. Even if this margin is reduced to 5 or 6 goals is that enough improvement? In my opinion he has lost the support of the majority of members and supporters and needs to go now. If the team can not afford to sack him then do a restructure and take him away from the actual coaching position and give him something he would be more suited to i.e. Cleaning the change rooms after each games.
