  1. The old parting by mutual agreement huh? Isn't that what you say when your girlfriend dumps you and don't want to admit it? Brad's PR team are doing well here but if the Club thinks it's time to part ways it doesn't really matter if the coach agrees or not. Scott was sacked after being at the club for 10 years, having a bit of crack of creating an elite team and failing and now having a bottom 4 team to pass on. If this was really planned and mutually agreed, they would have a successor or replacement ready. they have traded so many draft picks just to stay around 9th spot, and now you can count the number of good players they have under 24yo on one hand. maybe even on a camel's toe!
  2. as well as being young and inexperienced, we are also one of the worst teams at playing football at the moment important to factor that in
  3. How is Ken Hinkley still in a job? Zero effort from port. He has not been able to instill consistency over 6 years with a talented list
  4. Not sure what changed from two months ago until now. Did they think they’d make finals? Scott seems like decent coach but overrated club management imo. 9 years to draft and trade with only a handful of players to show for it. Although two prelims they never finished top 4. I get the point if not bottoming out but what is the point if you never really think you can win a flag??
  5. I’d say when the doctor says he is fit to play and no heightened risk of reinjury. With a collarbone pretty easy to know when. Bones in the foot and stress fractures are a different story. Always some guesswork involved as doesn’t always show up on scans
  6. Pruess is an interesting one. Do you think we would have been better off last week with him in the team?
  7. I was feeling confident until I realised Carlton have a better Percentage than us. We're doomed.
  8. or just play him when he is fit and ready?
  9. Interesting points Nasher. But I don't think there are that many non-negotiables. People make skill errors/miss shots/drop marks and that can be forgiven up to a point. But not putting your body on the line for the team and not helping your team mates even if only done once or twice affects the whole team. and if that someone continues to get picked, the standards can drop amongst the whole side. I am not saying that is what Jeff has done, just talking generally.
  10. Can’t imagine anything aside from Lewis for ANB. Salem plays more wing/mid
  11. Cold and Wet on Sunday, should suit Viney and co to the ground. show us your fancy skills now Kelly/Whitfield etc. gonna be a scrap
  12. that'll do Hirdy. enough coffee for you!
  13. True. The lost at Selection folks were at it this time last week, but we would have been poorer if Pruess played against WC imo. Cameron is saying GWS are considering an additional ruck but probably mind games
  14. Zac Williams is out though. he is a big out off back back. Whitfield might have to play HB
  15. The response to this video by all but especially non-MFC fans has been amazing. I might sound crazy, but he has the look of a young Acker about him. Not saying he has that immense talent but he has some. and a bit of swagger. critical to give him a couple of games now he should feel comfortable to show what he can do. debut in perth against WC as premiers is the toughest debut you can get
  16. what do you mean cruetly? since he has been interested in the Demons, we have not ever missed finals!! ?
  17. Just seen the footage on 360. Was weird. Looked like he was overwhelmed and his voice started to go a few times. Hope it is just stress or low BP and nothing serious. Rest up Goody.
  18. So after next week our injury could be down to: melksham jetta smith AVB and Hibbo a week away
  19. even our coach can't get through a presser! don'y give your cold to the players Goody!! I wonder who takes over the box if Goody cactus?
  20. Go DEES!! I'm up and about after seeing us play some good footy for the first time this season hopefully 9 day break is enough for the 3 concussed guys, especially Salem. GWS's midfield is probably the best in the comp and is on form. we will need to pressure and tackle and swarm them all day. and our fwd's need to stand up and kick straight! I'm taking my son for his first game on sunday. he is pumped. auskick in the morning and then off the the G ?
  21. relax guys, its just the herald sun writing rubbish like usual. MFC website states Lever, Hannan, JKH all playing at Casey this weekend https://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/2019-05-21/training-wrap-with-mitch-hannan we might have a few guys back for QB!! Hannan and Lever is exactly what we desperately need
  22. Lovely video. Oscar has a beautiful family. Do it for your mum mate. She would already be proud.
