Jumping Jack Clennett

Thanks, Hawk,. This thread is about the MCC election, which could have significant, if indirect, relevance to the MFC.

Is anyone interested?

Voting closes this coming Friday 11th. The 5 standing are... Peter Adams James Cain Anthony Johnson Sam King Alice Robinson. They all have good corporate experience. I think we Demon fans should try to get as many Demon-sympathetic committee members as possible. ( I realise they have to be MCC-, and not MFC-minded when they're on the board, but I think it's preferable to having , say, Collingwood or Hawthorn devotees on the committee) Do any Demonlanders have any knowledge of what team any of the candidates follow? It'd help me, at least, decide how I, and my family vote.

I didn't say it was likely we'd finish so high, but possible. I always hope for the best. Sounds like you hold no hope!

Um....re-read post.

I'm still hoping we win all our games, including a big percentage earner on Sunday, Coll. don't win by much tomorrow, and lose the next three. Meanwhile Port lose one game, and Bris don't have any percent boosters......and we end up minor Premiers!!! I know it doesn't matter if we're first or second....but I quite like being minor Premiers. Last time we went on and won the Major prize!!

On further ( ok…..a fraction optimistic) reflection, if the Pie lose three of their four, and don’t beat the Hawks by much, and we win all ours, including a big percentage booster v.North, we probably finish on top!!!9

If we win all our games and get some percentage v. North,, and Collingwood lose all theirs.....we're minor premiers again!

If you win the toss, and the pitch is a road…..BAT first. Every team has trouble chasing even moderate totals in the last innings.

I think it was a previous Port doctor that sent Nathan Eagleton back on the ground after a spontaneous collapse. It turned out he had Wolf Parkinson White syndrome , which means he had had a cardiac arrest on the field. That doctor was so lucky it didn’t cause another arrest that day. Th Aliir situation is probably worse, since the diagnosis was blatantly obvious.

But I thought Balta put the ball on the ground while he was being tackled. is’nt that incorrect disposal?( even though he didn’t dispose of it…..it’s like bouncing it when someone has hold of your jumper…. a free)

Having no supporters didn’t stop GWS in Ballarat or Freo at Kardinia Park.

Why? Surely we should hope they lose( and damage a few Pies) Remember when they said we played”bruise-free” footy?

I hate going for the Pies, but surely it’s better if we don’t play Carlton on a high ( for them )next week).

I wonder if he honked the horn when Carlton got a goal.

Simister put me off. I was sure I’d remember a politician of that name. Ditto with Mithen. But now I realise that Christian names came into consideration. I should have got it!

I reckon Darcy Moore looks like Hayley Mills in Pollyanna. And Chad Wingarde looks like Ravi Jadeja. Sorry…I can’t rustle up photos.

Al lot of them seem to be politicians names. But a lot don’t!

What’s the bloody answer? Something to do with the players with the same name playing for another club?

I thought Scache looked pretty poor at Casey. Doesn’t go in hard.

I don’t listen to Mr “Get Neeld” Lyon. Hes out of touch with Melbourne.

She should make no comments about football tactics. She wouldn’t know, anyway.

I don’t think it has filled Geelong with confidence. Far better for us they lost badly. Pity it had to be to Port. Things went so well for them in the rain and with the maggotry against us.

I think it would be best for us if Port destroy the Cats’ confidence in the 2nd half. The frees will even out. ( but they won’t next Thursday!)
