Are we making an assumption when we think that Pert and Roffey are on the same page?

I've attached a few videos to this thread to remind us about Kate Roffey's background and leadership style. They may be too long for the average punter to digest, but I think they give us some insight into her performance in her recent interview with Gerard Whateley. I don't expect anyone to change their mind about the interview, but supporters should not be surprised at how she responded. I read somewhere, quite some time ago, that Kate doesn't believe in relying on written notes when it comes to public speaking. She has trust in her ability to find the right words in responding in an honest and direct manner. It's obvious that this style didn't impress many when it came to the peppering that Whateley provided, but why would anyone be surprised by Kate's approach?

That's the best you have to offer? Its on the MFC official site, and has been for months!

All of this is now redundant because, in Christian's own words, "yeah, the support I've received has just been incredible from Roffey..." etc - Christian Petracca, July 1st

... The only rot I am aware of is this!

Is that the sound of rapidly exiting footsteps on the gravel I hear?

"While the trip was set to be a heartwarming time for him and Ardu, he also chose to generously share it with four other important people within his life - Simon Goodwin (Senior Coach), Shane McAdam (AFL player), Clayton Oliver (AFL player), and Matt Whelan (Indigenous Projects Officer)."

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!"

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!
