I blame jack watts for that ridiculous trumpet before every home game. GET RID OF IT.

At risk of boring you all to tears, at 191cm and 78kg he is still too small and too weak to be a better than average footballer. I know this has been said ad nauseum, but the fact no one at the club has managed to get the kid to put on size and strength is amateurish, not to mention embarrassing. This is a professional sports club and strength and conditioning should be it's bread and butter. You don't need Mission nor the Lexus Centre to get strong. You don't even need to be a gifted athlete. This is a reflects on the club more than young Cale. If anyone tells me James Hird was a rake and Cale needs to plays like Jimmy; JH was two centermetres shorter and 11kg heavier. If anyone tell me strength and size will compromise endurance, they need to do some (intelligent) reading. You can talk about culture, skills, potential, recruitment, development, the press and a whole lot of other [censored] that can't be quantified let alone understood, but increase Cale's squat by 50 kg, deadlift by 50kg and bench by 20kg (assuming he lifts at all) and he will be improve his game significantly.

We love you and we will miss you Jimmy.

Fantastic news! A step in the right direction.

Thank you for bringing some balance (and sense) to this issue. I agree wholeheartedly.

That is only my opinion on the two options. That said, why are we forced to choose a white clash strip? I don't understand why teams like Essendon can get away with their design and we have to come up with something like that (yes, yes a constitution you say). Do the AFL bully the MFC? What other decisions (perhaps recent) have the AFL hand their hand in? I don't know. I can only speculate. Yes, I am sceptical of our relations with the AFL. The filth don't take any [censored] from the AFL...the scum that is Esssendon don't take any [censored] from the AFL. It is the MFC that shouldn't be taking [censored] from ANYBODY. But, I digress... the MFC have their reasons. The board knows more about our circumstances that anyone us. Maybe we are forced to cut our loses and loose this battle (and a few more to come). I understand that. As long as we win the war.

^^^Thanks for bringing some sense to this thread..

Fantastic article. At work. Will comment when I get a chance.

Ahhhh, i missed that one.

Melbourne Demons MCG Red Blue That or nothing else. If MFC ever disappear, merge or relocate, a big part of my life will disappear forever. And I will not be holding back on anyone who even contemplates any those three things. And that includes those this thread. Please do not say you will follow any sort of these "teams." You will only break my heart.

That was a bit concerning! Had a shoulder reco last year from memory. Solid debut.

Yep. See "time to go thread." Many agree with you.

On a positive note, Paul Johnson played fantastic today. Well done big fella.

At least Bell can hold his own in the VFL.

close mates has nothing to do with running a football club

lol

I agree. It frustrates me to no end.

I think you may have missed the point I'm making.

Post of thread.

I just thought I'd list the players I know off the top of my head that are in the 190-192cm range. Just for kicks... Trent Croad Tom Harley David Neitz

I'm glad your not involved in recruiting at MFC... Anyone who makes judges players like you have in their first year of footy are fools in my eyes. Fools with a monitor tan.

scroll up the thread a bit

unless the southport sharks become the gold coast sharks...
