No one wants to listen to your poorly constructed vitriol! Kossie does play for him! Nibbler has made his reasons for leaving explicit, along with saying "If I could move the whole club to Adelaide with me I would", although he did add a post script along the lines of, "just don't let WERRIDEE cross the border!"

I don't think all of Petracca's management is staying 'silent'.

Except, Barassi had played for 12 years, had played in six Premiership teams, two of them as Captain, and he was looking to Coach!

We know now the extent of the trauma and psychological stress that Petracca has endured during, and post operation. We have heard his concern for various aspects of the MFC football program and administration. None of this seems to me to be an insurmountable obstacle with regards to his reconciliation with the club. After reading and listening to the current media updates, I think it likely that the leaking of information is coming from those very close to Petracca. In at least one instance, that group includes individuals with some direct control over aspects of contractual opportunities available to him beyond his football: his 'Brand'. This latter component seems to be the tipping point for our star!

Fritsch is generally a very good kick into forward 50. If he was kicking to himself on the lead he would score 60 goals! Yes, he needs to improve his pressure game. That can be fixed!

What struck me about Staff, whenever I attended training, was his great enthusiasm for every drill he took. It was contagious among the lads he was coaching. He also put his body into his ruck and forward positional instruction, taking the blows, that were inevitable, with a smile before setting up for the next!

Stick that in 'ya pipe and choke on it, doubters!

Time for MFC to hatch dummy bids for several highly rated stars from other clubs... just in case they are wanting to come home, wanting to leave home, wanting to go fishing, want to start a family, want to get involved with a media career, want to get out of the fish bowl... want a set of steak knives... just bombard the industry with highly publicized feelers!!!

On Max's goalkicking, up until the current round Max has a career tally of 109 goals 102 behinds. In 2024 he has 11 goals 9 behinds. The leading Ruckman/Goalkicker is Jackson, who is way ahead of allcomers. Max is fourth on the list, just a few goals behind English and Marshall.

Here’s the stats for that game where Xerri is rumoured to have trounced Max

One of the unexpected, but enlightening side effects of this thread is that it has exposed the charlatans. (not referring to you left foot snap)

Where exactly is the big O on this list?

We must remind ourselves that this thread is not about DeeSpencer, it is about our Max! I agree with all of the wonderful, positive and loving posts here devoted to Max. It is magnificent that he will be our leader through several more campaigns. What a treat it is that we will be able to watch him ply his craft for years to come. Reminder to self; do not give DeeSpencer a further thought!

Misery is an addiction for some!

Very shallow! Incapable of seeing the larger game that is in play!

6. Viney 5. Gawn 4. Turner 3. Langdon 2. McDonald 1. Fritsch

Yes, I think that was significant

How does that make you feel Velcro supporters who come on here and profess to have inside knowledge of BAD CULTURE???? You will never be able to celebrate a win like we will!

Kozzie to seal the deal in 4th!

There are currently 10 listed players unavailable and it shows!

You seem to have mixed up the two!

Bill is rapidly gaining on K Brown as turnover King!
