So true - reckless endangerment

surely Pagan warrants a spot somewhere?...at least level with ND.

The closet thing we are going to get to a GF victory...for now anyway

haha yeah - watching the game on 10 on mute and listening to MMM (the only way to watch footy) - Garry is stoked :D

Thanks for clearing up rogue

Attn Mods: I think its appropriate that the thread title be changed to '2007 MIDFIELD MEDAL' Award prerequisites: Be within a maximum of 10 metres away from the ball at all stoppages. B)

was this the story that was posted under the thread name "breaking story involving afl players" yesterday...or several days ago, which i missed as usual

Haha...hadn't thought of that. If robbo polls the best/very well for us it either means: 1) You dont need to be a midfielder 2) You need to be a big name and lesser knowns (junior, jones) have no hope 3) Our midfield is overrated and/or goes unnoticed

What are your tips for the brownlow??...Obviously the generic Ablett jnr, Bartel and Cornes x2 names are going to come up? Who will poll best for MFC? Junior imo...although his flamboyance or lack thereof could be detrimental. Theres always trapper, bruce etc. cheers,

Indeed...West Coast are going to play mega hard ball

Attn Mods: Some kind of absolute tabloid style sticky needs to be set up for ridiculous trade rumours that will never come come to fruition the kind where everyone has a 'source' lol, are all good fun though cheers

is CAC the best man for the job?? im not in anyway trying to undermine him, not in the least. I just know very little about him...he seems to have produced the goods in the past eg: Davey, Bartram(Juries Out) etc. etc. your thoughts....

We have more of a chance of getting him if one G Lyon decides to get his act together, Garry being Judds childhood hero and all plus barracking for the MFC as a kid! - meant to be...

Just briefly, I hope everyone who was able to, catch some of ND's post game interview with Ox. What he said really epitomises his true nobilty and genuine love for the club. I know it can be said that these attibutes don't win you premierships...but i defy anyone to find a premiership coach not possessing such qualities of unification, conviction, transperancy, accountability aswell as beiong able to relax and relate to the group whilst being a figurehead for the club and what it stands for. Daniher baggers should not lose sight of this.

The reverend was great for the club and we will be lesser for his preachings...however, the decisions seems to be for the best and not just for the sake of change...ND - A true gentlemen.

I have to agree....however that behavior is common place in contempory sports journalism let alone football. I defy anyone to go to USA during NFL/NBA playoffs or England during FA cup and not notice the 'paparazzi' nature of sports reporting.

Steve Harris is carro's old boss...editor-in-chief at The Age... <_<

Must have 1998 or 2000 when we began to seroulsy challenge some clubs...it was a friday night match at the G and we owned the last quarter and ND got all involved with the win - players, trainers, coaches - into a circle in front of the members and sang one of my most memorable renditions of a grand old flag.

Can he coach?

Absolute Sense! It must be realised that now we cannot go chasing premierships or at least expect to be be able to mix it with the best clubs. We need an Al Clarkson type, who is steadfast in deveolping youth and takes no crap from anyone, half our list is over 25!

Last time i checked Buckley was still a collingwood PLAYER,not an experienced coach, with another year left on his contract with CFC...

P.S. - Todd Viney

If I hear the Words Michael Voss or Chris Connelly uttered in the same sentence as the MFC and Coach - I think Iam going to scream

Looking Foward to September...Inter Schools Ski Carnival, and the best time of year to be at Falls Creek!

HAHA, here here. With a decent group of young U/23s coming up through the club...a similar approach needs to be taken with the coach...maybe someone who hasnt been a head coach before? Viney? ie. a different regime to ND.
