Yes,
My name in ManDee and I am a MCC/MFC Member. It is 51 years since my last premiership, but I am on the bandwagon for another year of angst.
Not buying $200 raffle ticket this year as a protest.
Over reaction by many here.
1 If any trade is offered I would be surprised if the club did not have a WADA clause (Not Santa) ie. EFC to pay all his wages during any period of penalty to be included in their cap.
2 MFC would not offer much maybe 3rd rounder or into PSD
3 No deals are done yet, so chill.
If we swap our round 1 and round 3 draft picks to Carlton for Ciaran Sheehan & Ciaran Byrne then Carlton trade pick one and their Priority pick to Sydney for Buddy Franklin and Sydney trade pick 2 and Aliir Aliir to Collingwood for their 3rd round pick and Jarrod Witts to Essendon for Melksham and their 2nd round pick then, ..... damn I forgot where I was going with that.
Edit:- That's right and then we could get Relton Roberts in a swap for a 1976 Cortina a packet of Winfield Blue and two Ciaran's.
I thought this topic may have the cure to my over the water yips. But alas no help here. Yes I know imagine there is no water, it doesn't work, like the do not press the red button signs.
Chris, if Roos is leaving the motivation to the players then two things are apparent.
1 He is no longer the coach.
2 The players can't do it.
So Chris when Roos tells the media that the side will play like maniacs or play angry are you suggesting that is coming from the players not him?
If any coach expects the players to get up after being flogged with no direction from the coach then he is not a coach. That was my point.
Roos said they needed to play like maniacs and expect them to play angry. They didn't.
A coach's job is to get the best from the players. On that basis he is failing at the moment.
