  1. He is my favourite and most loved of this generation (maybe equalled by Max), has always been an honest player. I have loved him as a footballer ever since he stumped Jordan Lewis on the wing in that famous win against the Hawks. For me that was THE moment of THE game where the tide turned for our footy club. An epoch defining moment. I also love how he somehow time travelled to sit for a portrait by Vincent van Gogh, as seen in my avatar pic. Thank you for all you do for the club, including giving us a connection to our players.
  2. Langford's been good. How can our skills be so bad?
  3. Thanks for all your work Andy and Nasher! Good luck and see you all on the other side
  4. I don't react to replies about my reading
  5. PJ apprentice Josh Mahoney back please
  6. Deleted because why bother
  7. Such a high ranking seems rather off-brand for MFC
  8. Welfare check on @binman?

    As long as we get him goedkoop
  10. Absolutely love this. You would never have expected it in your wildest dreams. Perfect.
  11. Stupid Hypothetical: we don't pick up Fullarton. Does he get a run in the GF for Brissy? (Not to mention our list management impact on Sydney's ruck stocks)
  12. I was so happy for all the long suffering WA Dees fans who got to see it. Living in Perth and not supporting one of their two clubs is so tough, it must have been so, so sweet.
  13. This year has turned gross, throw it out
  14. Not punny
  15. 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?
  16. Why can't the club utilise the Dees fans currently already making popular, great and relevant content, like Caden Mcdonald and Broden Kelly?
  17. Is it Brad Green's footy, soccer or fire safety background that qualifies him to conduct a board review?
  18. Well, switching presidents has been more successful for us recently than switching coaches so let's see how this shapes up.
  19. Excellent comment
  20. Good outcome. Perhaps the kind of outcome a well run club would get in trying to navigate its way out of an extraordinary and tricky circumstance. Shows the media types up for the fools they are .
  21. Max Gawn captain of this club 👏 @Demonland captain of this forum 👏
  22. If you look at MFC over the years of Goodie's tenure objectively, it is an era defined by personal care for players welfare and going the extra mile (clarrie literally moving in with the Gawns while they were expecting a baby, ensuring Kozzie remains connected with his land and family and letting Ed go to his sister's wedding) as well as of respecting the opposition (I've felt sometimes too much). And people here want to believe that the club didn't do due diligence when one of its biggest stars got traumatically injured? Please. Communication to outside world is a shocker though. I think (hope) the strategy is to passively let this wave of [censored] build and wash over us, while not actively contributing to it and trying to deal with the issues in house. Don't think Josh Mahoney would have abided this but let's see what happens.
