Angus Brayshaw Forced into Retirement
His Journey & story should be plastered all over the change rooms and be a mentor to young players to show no to take their time for granted & what can be achieved coming from adversity. Makes my blood boil when dumb decisions are made by players who take their time for granted and not only hurt themselves but the club!

The Premiership Window Closing?
Injuries yes but also coaching and bringing players from Casey …in 2022 continued with same players, in 2023 watching Grundy not playing in the 2 finals was another blunder!

Training Ground?
Worth listening to Pert @ the AGM as discussed in detail as what is needed now & in years decades to come, the issues with AAMi park and shared facilities plus access due to concerts etc, not just 1 oval and went on to say that the his team & the board explored all opportunities & Caulfield represents the best.

Training Ground?
I believe local gvt blocked the plans for a site in the Olympic park/ Aami park precinct or the club couldn’t build what was required. State gvt has poured out hundred of millions of dollars to support other clubs redevelopment of their existing grounds eg Geelong .. understanding they have existing footprint but all driving by politics vote getting.. A club that bears the name of the city is treated like a 2nd rate citizen, Yet happy to build extend tennis stadiums etc but the MFC is given scraps

Training Ground?
They will keep Casey but they want a training centre that has all the club under one roof vs mcg , aami

Training Ground?
Reference is how hard it is for our club to get its training base, is local or state gvt to blame?

Training Ground?
Fisherman’s Bend is having a major redevelopment with an estimated 20k population eventually. Surely there would be opportunities and recently the local council just purchased land with a view of turning it into an open space

Training Ground?
Afl announce a 70mill train base for the TAS team! Makes the blood boil how our club gets treated
-
Training Ground?
Hard to say really as not sure on the commercials, who would pay for the facilities, can they get 2 ovals? I live in Port & as always thought that the existing Port Melb fc ground is ripe for development but they also have a cricket club which would need to move as need a ground with all year access

Training Ground?
Glen Eire council are now saying they haven’t been consulted & are warning that any plans needs to include local residential use.. could another local gvt shaft the MFC?
-
Training Ground?
I stand to be corrected but the area of we’re the filth (pies) who are rubbing it in our faces took it whilst we were rattling cans to survive and 20yrs later we are split to 3 areas with a training ground almost 60 mins away.. Winning the flag in 21 shows how great it was compared to what the other 17 clubs have to deal with!

Training Ground?
The glass house Olympic park was offered around 20yrs to the club but was rejected by either Gutnick ,Sznody, Gardner era as we couldn’t afford it, unfortunately when the club was continuously in survival mode & broke its hard to plan ahead ..you look at the junction oval now and say why wasn’t that explored even the saints couldn’t make it work. The fact that Daniher had to work out of portables & players had the worst training facilities and using cones as goals in preseason is amazing that he’s sides played in finals plus a GF! The fact it’s 2024 and we still get get kicked off AAMI due to functions etc inc the women’s WC is a joke, so if Caulfield is the answer go for it

MFC Members Football Forum: Tuesday 12th December 2023
Training base is very important as the mfc may have the poorest of all clubs which is split between 2 grounds & our head office is in a 3rd location..compare ours to what hawks , tigers , even dogs & not to mention cats who have gotten hundreds of millions to develop their home ground to fit 40k so they train & play there.. we are chalk & cheese! Either evolve or you get left behind.. like we did after 1964!

Dees win $1million McClelland Trophy
Understand sure great for the club to get a 1mill but just have our president accepting it, feels very hollow vs seeing a club hold a premiership cup…Feels like our players holding a mediocrity cup
