Just on Peter Jackson, ever since Roosy has come on board you cant wipe the smile of him now!

Seems to be up and about now the bald eagle!

Liked your pics on twitter Saty... by the way, who was that walking behind Cross (maybe I'm out of touch or going more stupid, but I didn't recognise the face).

For anyone that cares Neville Jetta is training with us.

Could imagine everyone at MFC will be up and about at training today!

Does the owner have facebook..?

Still cannot believe Jurrah is still brought as a possible recruit for us again...

Let it go

Zak Jones could end up being the best player in the draft, and be in the top 3 players in the afl in 6 years. We could do worse than pick him at 9

Ok that's pushing it a bit far now..

I've heard the club is keen on Lennon. Freeman would be handy but they don't expect him to be available at 9.

There could be a slider - maybe Aish - as he's regarded as more of an outside midfielder.

I like Quigley's description of Freeman - stamina, pace and a little bit of a pudge. And he still won the repeat sprints. His downside is his hands but he is born with stuff other players don't have.

It's disappointing to read that Quayle (and everyone else) reckons we need pace, when we have one of the quickest linebreakers around in Sam Blease. Please give him one good pre-season.

So that's one player that's not even in our best 22 atm with line breaking pace and that's enough for you??

Of course it is but that has nothing to do with the article.

So does majority of threads on here..

Don was a good bloke, but he was thrust into the job for his mate and took the brunt of the work in what was possibly one of the darkest days for MFC. I respect him for giving it a go and trying to help this club.

He will always be welcomed back to this club with open arms.

Schwab meanwhile can go and eat a Dik. After when he came on here and said that he was glad none of us supporters were running the club only to show how much of a hypocrite he was with what he did to this club he deserves all the criticism that comes his way.

Fancy a geek like him getting a sleeve tattoo...

Sooo that Friday training went well ey

I'm now bracing myself at the prospect that Freeman will not last till 9 if all reports are true.

Said a while ago Brisbane will be our biggest threat and looks like they will nab him at 7..

Got this from bigfooty.

Well... these are my notes from training

Boys started at 9:00 apparently which took me by surprise when I found out. Therefore missed around half an hour (it was scheduled to start at 9:30!!!)

The group seems to be split in two. One group, with Spencer, Hogan, McDonald, Jamar, Garland, Viney, Tapscott, Byrnes, Evans, McKenzie, Michie, Howe, Vince working on fitness near the Victory boys.

The rest working on quick ball movement - Watts' pressure and chasing in this drill excellent!

Roosy getting a tad more vocal with every session.

Toumpas once again doing well. Found space in this drill which is done in a very small radius, plus laying shepherds at will.

Same drill afterwards but altered.

Fitzy still fairly uncoordinated, few handballs missing the target.

Toump not afraid to take opponents on, breaking the lines in this drill.

Extra man added on defensive side, creating more pressure.

Handball drills followed.

Clark is steadily getting fitter.

Skills clean throughout handball drills, no one screwed up a handball.

Kicking inside 50/rebound 50 focus. Still a few kicking errors.

Toump just doesn't miss a target. Hit every kick on a teammate's chest. Signs look promising. Hoping he delivers given I seem to talk him up a bit.

Matt Jones using the ball very well.

Watts also kicking beautifully, like Toump, he is hitting them lace out.

Clisby and Terlich not using the ball particularly well - Terlich shanked his first kick over the fence!

Fitzy clunking marks. With Clark IMO still a little bit behind could Fitzy start in round one?

Main group went off, presumably to do a running drill. (possibly running the Tan - or hill work, cannot confirm)

Rehab group running 400s I think. Evans the pick if the group, Clark still a fair way back. Gapped by the others.

Bernie Vince running with the rehab group. Dom Tyson here too.

Russian doing ruckwork with... Allison? Huh?

Frawley and Dunn still loitering around before they start on Monday.

Gawn and Kent popped in to Edwin's (they didn't train) and said g'day also.

Fold?

Do you really think that? Or are you just being dramatic?

This is what will happen: Frawley signs with another club, we either take the Pick 4 on offer as compensation for a RFA, or we attempt to trade him to that club.

We would most likely take the Pick 4.

That's it. That's the extent of it. The club doesn't fold, it loses a good player and we move on. Because good clubs don't let a player become bigger than the club the way you suggest.

And what happens then?

We fold.

I wished we kept Nev. I really hope someone gives him another chance. He has good pace and aggression, he could be a good asset for a team lacking run. All the best for the future Jets...

No he didn't.

I bet he stays with the MFC his whole career.

Being a one club player is a very special thing (regardless of how much success you do or don't have), and his uncle would know as well as anyone.

Chip just strikes me as a very loyal man.

Wrong. Loyalty is just about gone out the door these days.

I know for a fact Chip was really disgruntle at the club this year, that at times he was regretting signing that 4 year deal. He wanted out straight away and his uncle encouraged him aswell as he thought he wasn't gonna get much out of his football playing with us.

Things have changed now that Roos is on board BUT if we don't improve on field next year its Bye Bye Frawley. Gold Coast and Hawthorn were into him big time during the year about a possible move.

Chip might strike you as a loyal man but we all thought the same about Moloney, Rivers, Scully, Sylvia the list goes on...

Footy these days is all about success and business. Someone like Frawley is getting very impatient having been at the club and not one finals experience.

We must improve on field next year..

I liked Nev and you can never forget that bone crunching tackle on Sandilands.

Wish him all the best i hope he goes back to the WAFL and puts in a good career there.

Purely thinking about how Richardson Vs. Choco would affect our Round 1 clash,

I personally think Richardson will not be as demanding of a first win as Choco would be.

Choco doesnt seem to be a big picture kind of person, and would demand wins straight up.

Where a new coach like Richardson, will have more time to get improvement in the team.

Must win game.

So you think a rookie coach wanting to get off to a good start in his career wouldn't be demanding for a win?

Anyone go yesterday??

I wonder if that was him I noticed in the Pre Season footage in the website I couldn't recognize..??

Good job boys

So what does this mean in regards to draft picks in the national draft?? Do we still have 3 live picks?
