Maybe some sort of welfare role with him and Tammy that look after newnrecruits from interstate/country. Bit like what the Lamberts did at GWS and nor Brisbane. They could all bunk at his mansion.

Wonder if we could use Roosy like how Essendon with Sheedy right now? Alot of marketing and promotional stuff.

Roosy on 3aw mentioned that he would still like a part time role at the club after he finishes but obviously thats not the main focus now.

I still laugh about last year against Adelaide when he completely ragdoll a crow player and just literally grabbed and threw him out of the pack with such ease. He is living up to his name.

For not only saving this club from turmoil but bringing back the fun and enjoyment in what its actually like to support a real AFL club now. They preached patience that it was going to take time but the rewards would be there Not only did we just smash out all time membership record we are now starting to put on a consistent performance each week. It is exciting and i have self belief that we are finally set for the next couple of years with some success. These two will be forever indebted to the Melbourne Football club for the mountain of hardwork thats been put in and we are now starting to hopefully see the rewards. I should also note the development team led Brendan McCartney. To see players like Gawn and Viney borderline elite is something this side hasn't had since probably the Lyon Flower days.. Its a good time to be a Melbourne supporter.

Yep

Agree. Not enough love for Jason Taylor and his recruiting team for biting the bullet not get sucked in by the hype Twomey and likes spruik out.

Sorry I shouldn't do this but been watching Parsh and he has butcherd the ball and looks bit overawed.. We nailed this.

How good was his contested mark against a more senior and bigger Callan Ward

Came out in the Herald Sun.

Just watched the video. First of all Roosy is all class, i could watch that all day. Btw did anyone see the big handshake he gave Clarry then huge grin afterwards. That tells me Roos knows he has something pretty special and is a marrive wrap for the kid.

Really..? Think we all forget how good Trengove debut year was. And as much as I can't stand the little weasel Scully too was pretty impressive. In fact Scully best year in AFL football in terms of disposal was his first year. Their impact on their first year was very impressive especially Trengove. Could you imagine if we got that Trengove of 2010-2011 back? oh my.... Also make the case for Jack Viney who was BOG In his debut game against the horrible loss against Port

I would be very surprise. In fact couldn't think of anything more stupid to do. He was born a senior player right from when I watched him absolutely ragdoll kids last year and his last 3 weeks has proved that this is exactly his level. If he needs a rest we'll give him a week off. [censored] Casey

We even had one cry at training..

No its not.

Oliver has avoided suspension and been $1000.

The Essendon/Goodwin saga is completely irrelevant now. He got clear, we move on now. Id rather talk about Goodwin the MFC coach from next year onwards. It was very heartening to read the other day that Hogan has a very healthy relationship with Goodwin. Just show the impressive people skills and relationships he has with the players.

Love it

How brutal was his tackle on Aaron Young!

W..T..F..

Your reading way too much into a very small issue..

Good article on Oliver in the local Echuca paper. Clayton a Demon for punishment

This makes me think we possibly have a VFL/SANFL/WAFL player in our sights but who knows.

Just on Oliver the couple of games o saw the bushies play obviously he dominated. He definitely was alot pudgy compared to what he is now and even back then he had a good burst of speed when he could win a stoppage and just burst out of the contest. For a kid that was carrying weight i was quite surprised and impressed he actually had decent pace. Now that he is trimmed right down and toned up i expect his pace to really go up a notch now to the point where who knows maybe it might be Dangerfield like.. A 187cm 86kg Beast of a midfielder bursting out of packs is something i have seriously craved for a long time.
