WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - BEN BROWN
It’s an interesting question. But the more interesting thing is why north is so keen on moving him out after offering a big deal 12 months ago. Probably a bigger question is how would Mr Floppy go with crap delivery? Id say yes... but. Not at huge cost and due diligence needs to be done

Hassa Mann Turns 80
Hassa is my uncle. Hard to believe he is 80. The guy is as fit as they come. He’d probably run rings around me 30 years his junior. Whatever his reasons for going to WA, he is Melbourne through and through. He loves the club as much as any football tragic. Happy birthday uncle Hass

Jack Viney on Re-Signing & Geelong Offer
As a footballer I’d always look hard at any offer made. You are a long time retired in this game. I love his honesty, his passion and his dedication. Long may he hurt the opposition players.

James Frawley Retires... And Starts Playing Again
He was one of us. We don’t eat our own. I was [censored] he left but enjoyed his time in the red and blue. We don’t own players, and only have them for a brief time

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - HARLEY BENNELL
Oh well. We rolled the dice. And 50k isn’t the end of the world. Damn shame about his whole career though. Talent running out his wazoo, but brain farts and injuries robbed the game of some great moments

Paddy McCartin
God no. With or without his concussion issues he’s still a spud

OUR SEASON
We blew it. Sure it was a screwball season, but we blew it. Oh well we’d have got smashed next week anyway

Head Knocks Danny Frawley
I was hit by a car cycling 3 years ago. Lots of broken bits that are healed up but I was out for at least 90 minutes. I’m not the old me. Very grumpy over nothing. Sad for no reason. Have some really dark thoughts at times. And I was never that. I was happy go lucky and not think too much about anything. Shaun Smith’s interview was like hearing myself. It’s hard but I don’t know what can be done. Maybe just be aware that these things change a person, and don’t be too hard on their strangness
- Round 18 - How it will play out..?

THE RUN HOME 2020
Nah it’s all fine. I have a thick skin and don’t take much on the internet seriously. And, yes, a demon win is a panacea to cure all ills.

THE RUN HOME 2020
Ummm life. Look of course I hate seeing us lose and I’d love to see us hold the cup before I die, but things are more important. I haven’t been able to see my kids for 6 months. A friend died and I couldn’t go to their funeral. My job is on the skin of its teeth - very day to day. So yeah as much as I love watching my team do well, it’s not the end of the world if they don’t. It’s a game. A fun game and a great distraction from the serious, but just a game.

THE RUN HOME 2020
We had a win. We are still in the hunt. Maybe we will get there, maybe we won’t, but geez the wrist slitting in this place is depressing. It’s just a game. A fun game, and a game we are invested in, but at the end of the day it’s a bunch of kids chasing an inflated bladder. It’s not the be all end all, and our lives won’t change no matter what happens this weekend

Serong/Pickett trade
I’m sure we all remember a young Jeff Farmer? Geez he did some retarded things while doing some amazing stuff. It was like his brain was 3 seconds ahead of the game. That worked out ok. I see the same here. He kicks straight the game was over at half time. He takes the mark and he won mark of the year. We have a diamond in the rough here and should be bloody grateful for the people that targeted him. We will see many a magic trick during this journey. And what’s a Serong anyway? Some Fijian outfit?

NON MFC: Round 17
