John Northey on the Front Bar
Barrassi helped set it up for him. A few good years of good coaching, motivational training and recruiting by Barass before Northey arrived.

One more . Cut his pay. He’s from a very different culture.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - HARLEY BENNELL
He was an outstanding talent in his first few years. He’s not now. He looks scared of the contest, worried about new injuries. He hasn’t got his burst of speed any more. He doesn’t tackle and it looks like he’s avoiding contact. He’s still got great skills. I can imagine the frustration of having the skills, speed, ability to break open games taken away by a bad run of injury, and then to be locked in a hub and not picked to play. Also, extended family is exceedingly important in indigenous culture. Being separated from family and not even playing would be devastating for him. I hope the club gives him another chance.

DEEDAY: Dockers vs Bulldogs
You’ve hit the nail on the head. I can’t recall a MFC team since 1964 that had an adequate number of elite players to win a premiership. We certainly don’t have them now. There’s a few, and there’s a few with potential but we need about six more really top players, especially fast outside mids and forwards.

CHANGES: Rd 18 vs Essendon
You’ve been cooked in red wine foul chicken. LJ isn’t ready. Leave the team alone. They won last week. No need for changes unless there are injuries.

THE RUN HOME 2020
We could blame the players, the coach and the administration. Plus we could blame the AFL, CoVid and the weather in Cairns. Blaming yourself hardly seems appropriate fellow demonlander.

Caroline Wilson on MFC rumblings
Journalism is not about the truth. It’s about ‘the story’. It’s about making something interesting enough that someone will read it. In the old days it was to sell newspapers!

Goodwin said ‘we’ a lot in the latest presser.

CHANGES: Rd 18 vs Essendon
The team plays zone defence where they guard a patch of grass. Ridiculous! If someone had tagged Bontempelli in the doggies game instead of letting him roam free to dominate the game we might well have won!

Time to have a talk about Jayden
He’s looked like it for two years.
