Mark Neeld's Spray on Morton.
You are right about Neeld so bad CEO Pres Board all got cleaned out and cleaning up culture starts at the top thatās why Bartlett and Jackson got Roos and cultural change in footy started to suggest anything else is rewriting history and delusional. What you are saying about Roosy is ill informed and not very nice - yes he was well paid but walked into a mess I.e the culture was one of losing bad decisions tanking and pointing the finger

-
Russell Howcroft to MCC board
Yep thatās why he left our MFC board.he has been appointed to mcc committee of 17 people - has nothing to do with our board where I think he basically got booted from.

Russell Howcroft to MCC board
Perhaps Ask Glen Bartlett why Howcroft left the Board shortly after he became President? He probably wouldnāt say but that speaks volumes in itself

Elite Talent at Melbourne FC
Agree with Robbie but with respect Not the rest - May,Lever, Langdon,Tomlinson, Melksham, Gawn,Oliver, Brayshaw,Harmes, Viney and others would walk in - half of them have already proved that - we have one of the best lists - all of those list bashers will be eating their words over next few years

Coronavirus: AFL & MFC
Exactly right Dr Gonzo donāt even know why weāre giving merger discussions any time old thinking - no one in AFL or club land is talking about it yes because of tv rights and too hard to make it happen we know that from 90s when it was all go - clubs are membership based organisations who would rather fold than merge with the opposition. AFL clearly not going to let clubs fold and we have much stronger balance sheet and debt position than at least half the clubs and we invented the game wrote the rules end of debate
-
Coronavirus: AFL & MFC
With respect you are completely wrong - watch this space. Also read Goyderās letter 18 clubs going in 18 clubs coming out. Talk of mergers is 1990s type hyperbole. We are more likely to end up with 20 or 22 clubs than less Why? Media rights and the fixture. Watch this space yep heard about mergers since the 1990s

Farewell Jesse Hogan
Apologies English is not my first Language yes Moonshadow I think we are in agreement apologies I think this was meant for Diamond Jim

Farewell Jesse Hogan
You blokes are drinking and/or dreaming too much understandable in current climate wish Hoges all the best but 2018 proved we didnāt need him to finally make the finals or go deep it was a good trade for us he wonāt be coming back move on we have the talent no excuses now sorry might be harsh we made the finals and he wonāt be coming back to Melbourne

Coronavirus: AFL & MFC
We have already had 2 letters from Bartlett and Pert how many do you want? I suspect they have a lot on their plate and weāll here from them soon again anyway. Supporters also need to stop putting us in same category as Gold Coast and St Kilda. We have 2m debt 10m in bank and real assets - St Kilda have over 14m debt and who knows how much Gold Coast owes. We are the foundation Club who wrote the rules - we wonāt fold - AFL will make sure all 18 clubs come through this seriously if there was no drama around this there would be nothing to report on
-
ITāS OVER FOR NOW
You clearly have no idea first thing you should do is read our annual report and have a look at our balance sheet we have money in bank and substantial assets that can be made liquid because they are not tied up in a home base. We are effectively debt free go and have a look or attend an AGM and ask questions if you dont understand Also any comments around scrapping Gold Coast or Norf or us just wonāt happen - Media Rights! AFL need all 18 clubs and in coming years will extend comp why? Media rights!

TEAMS: Rd 01 vs West Coast
Tired experience wore us down please try the umpires and the crowd after didgeridoos being played on the roof at 3 quarter time when we should have been 8 goals up at 3 quarter time - if we attack run and take our chances we will win by 8 goals plus - Go Dees
-
PREGAME: Rd 01 vs West Coast Eagles
My intel is Eagles internal research is the crowd umps ground etc is on average a 5 goal head start
-
OPPOSITION WATCH: Rd 1 vs West Coast
I agree Watto also West Coast have looked underdone in both Essendon and Freo games. I think we will lead in close game at half time and run over them in second half by 8 goals +
-
Rd 01: Weideman vs Jackson
Agree totally very quick follow up and good hands very versatile and will develop into a star. In the best 22 now even off the bench
-
Jack Viney a Liability?
Balls Jack also cleaned up Hurn in that last quarter agree with everything you said above just surprised you forgot about his mid air shirtfront! A fit Viney is a gun anyone doubt that look at this game and the 2 MCG finals in 2018 after an extended lay off - watch out everyone full Pre season and ready to go

Dees Post Operating Loss for 2019
Our home base will be the game changer - how else would we get the 10 mil to put in and get govt AFL to match it? Also didnāt we get a much better stadium deal that more than offsets the pokies revenue loss? 2019 seems like a one off on the back of 6 successive profits? Huge injury payments, not having QB and Anzac Eve and crowd drop off for the replacement games Rich Coll Syd at the end. The Darwin game was necessary but 2 NT games not sustainable if we are serious! Opportunity to build another blockbuster e.g. v Carlton for Blues Free footy or the Barassi Cup? Talk of lynch mobs or rattling tins shows no respect or understanding of where we have come from over the last 5 years, where we are really at and what is possible!

The Business Case
Big Jim āgrain of truthā sending links to what PJ said at the time about alternating hosting QB. Why donāt you do your homework properly? Send the links where Bartlett opposed the concept of even alternating at all - his position was letās not fight over QB as clubs with the oldest rivalry letās lobby AFL to lock in 2 games each year and share a bigger pie. yet Mr Lucifer the Hero says he agreed to āgive up QB a year earlyā Lucifer does not have a sceric of evidence on public record or at all yet the muppets just accept purported factual statements like this! What is your position on it? I am amazed at this biased love fest with our ex CEO - he was talking about alternating it and Bartlett opposed it publicly - go figure how someone like Lucifer can say Bartlett agreed to it - if you have the evidence put it up or I suggest shut the f$&k up (see earlier advice)
-
The Business Case
Lucifer is totally wrong here. It is an AFL decision and QB was the only blockbuster not being shared. Bartlett did not agree to it and Lucifer you think you are a hero are totally wrong in saying Bartlett agreed to it. My advice is withdraw the comment, administrators fix it or just ask Karl Langdon and the West - here comes a defamation action! I actually think people are getting really tired of people like Lucifer making defamatory comments online - mate clean up your act or you will get sued and cause this whole site to get shut down to our detriment and that of supporters. Your PJ comment is astonishing. He was the CEO when this would have been worked through so you are saying the President agreed to it but the CEO did not?? Give me a break. You obviously did not pay any attention to what was going on in terms of governance and management for the previous 5 years!
