  1. We don't have a pick
  2. One will be on the bench if need be, on current form he won't miss out
  3. Listened to the Fagan press conference and he said Max is the greatest ruck of all time

    And that's why l never was concerned we would get the extra funds we need for the caulfield project. Donors can leave themselves an amazing legacy
  5. Its really poor that all media are putting talk of his contact on the table this week when they could do it any other time

    Don't understand alot of the Lamb criticism, part of delivering a flag after so many years and injuries and player issues aside we have a pretty good list. Most speculative picks or trade misses are for depth players we hope show something extra at mfc. On top of that, formidable players don't choose to switch clubs because they like the list manager. Its up to the coaches, player group and perceptions of the club to get players across the line

    Happy for Gary to vote on whoever he likes, just don't ever select another mfc coach again

    Jay is ordinary, posing leading questions often when there is nothing to consider out of desperstion to be relevant

    Ivanhoe grammar recently fenced off their oval to the public ... poor form although all to common ... kids miss out but no one cares
  10. After reading what cats were offering l am happy to back oliver in to build his form back up

    Casey was selected as a growth corridor, and the land or lease is essentially free l believe. We are trying to attract new young members given the demographic of our existing base. Has been very useful given we still don't have a proper primary home base One of the few achievements of past administrations
  12. Needs to do just one thing, stop kicking the ball super high when close to goal. Kicking the ball harder adds risk for no reward. Should be more of a passing type kick
  13. He needs to get serious in the gym no matter where he plays. Those skinny arms aren't going to be able to compete given he hasnt got breakout talent others can rely on.

    l think some are making the mistake of seeing Fullarton as JVRs replacement. So JVRs role is as the big forward and the lesser role as the back up. Petty is the replacement for the former while Fullarton is the replacement for the later. He is also the Fritch replacement. Our main targets going forward todsy were Petty, Melksham and Kozzie.

    Nobody gets a month given to you. Needs to compete hard and play a role and go from there
  16. Howes has had a fair go, needs to now repay the club if he is good enough. First few games seem to have been his best where he showed some ability, so its on him to show that more often

    Al Nicholson for me unless we poach a proven sports CEO. He has the perfect lead in experience to take it on, its got nothing to do with him being a mfc man. Has led sports organisations and consulted in sport at high levels
  18. My guess would be that Jack isn't 100%, he was pretty good last season with out much help. His contact has another 3 years to flattern his payments in the clubs interests l imagine. If he plays vfl and guides the young blokes in his final year or two l can live with that

    Footy clubs and maybe some other sports clubs are different. When you succeed you likely stick together for years on end and you grow to love your team mates and their differences. That's why footy is so great. l have 12 friends l have an annual trip with and watch our 1990/2000s matches l have digitised together over a few drinks. Nothing beats those memories and the trust and bond you have with them. Let there be more love at MFC

    l don't sign up to the theory we have been terrible last 3 years even with the finals exits. We were banged up in one finals series and in the other we kicked poorly in front of goals which happens to everyone from time to time. If you said to me at the start of last season clarry would be unfit and trac would be missing for a large chunk and other injuries, were would we finish? l would have said we would miss finals. Last week and last quarter gws, seriously dumb football by experienced players bombing the ball long, it's been made clear not to do that.
  21. He will play 2nds first
  22. There is one way to fix it. Apart from predetermined rotations, players typically get benched for poor efforts or match ups. Well we need to extend this to inside 50 kicks. When a player bombs it when they have time, they get benched and have a few minutes to reflect
  23. Our foward line drops from being ok in ability when pickett is there due to his class to below average when he is not there. The norf practice match turned when he came on in the last quarter. We sruggle without him. Lets not completely lose it though, we are 1 and 1 in terms of acceptable performances

    Assume its in the soft cap
  25. They have said they are giving back some time to the players ... wonder if thus training schedule is part of it
