CHANGES: Rd 03 vs GWS
Hibberd is an elite half back when fit and needs to come in. Rivers will need to make way. Some of his kicking recently hasn't been great

How Important was Spargo
Not saying he didn't have a good round 1 but are we really counting last year?
-
Round 1 Crowd
10 is a lot of tickets, not surprised it was an issue due to social distancing
-
Round 1 Crowd
Our supporter demographic might be a touch older which might not help if you are worried about your health. Still a disappointing crowd no matter

Membership 2021
Anyone know if the club has worked out the reciprocal game for the NT home game? Sorry if it has been posted somewhere already. Would have to be one of the Hawt or Esse games at the MCG I suspect.

Simon Goodwin Interview SEN (17/3/21)
l wouldn't mind if we knew it was just his leg

Mark Williams Interview
l get tired listening to choco not sure why ... perhaps it's his intensity

Medical Sub
you miss the point, players still go back on the field because they mostly don't want to let the team down by leaving them 1 short ... they fudge the initial benchmark tests deliberately as admitted by McCartin just last year

Medical Sub
can't trust coaches when it comes to laws of the game and gill just wants to mitigate potential future payouts for negligence related to cte ... supporters are the last consideration on this one just managing our expectations

Membership 2021
l got tixs today in mcc after 5pm for 2 junior mfc members and l as a provisional new mcc member. have also got a mcc/mfc membership. my learning today is that the booking system works very well but could do with some better explanations and more detailed scenario based how to videos ... next booking will be a breeze for us all now that we have got the hang of it ... ps mfc membership staff are great and super knowledgeable but need more hands on deck to help in key moments ... 30 min plus wait time is common at the moment

Who gets to go to Round 1?
Thanks Grimes. I rang the MFC membership department this morning also (40 min wait each time I have rung this week for an answer) and they said similar i.e. that you need to wait for the MFC membership window to open and it will depend on availability of MCC spots which could be an issue for some games ... I have an MFC/MCC Exclusive membership but that doesn't have general admission so the other alternative is to wait for tickets to go to the public and bundle 1 adult ticket with the 2 MFC junior memberships

Who gets to go to Round 1?
Have a similar issue trying to combine my new provisional MCC membership with my 2 kids junior memberships so we can sit in either the MCC or the general admission ... some how the melb vs freo game is classed a 2 by the MCC which means no visitors ... can I use my MCC membership to book in general admission with 2 junior MFC members?

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - MAJAK DAW
Best big name outside the AFL system by far ...

POSTGAME: Practice Match vs Bulldogs
At one stage we were interested in him and then we weren't ... suggests to me we realised we weren't getting him or that he wanted too much $$$ to fit in our cap ... if tmac had gone I suspect it may have been different

AGM 2021
Clearly the club is banking on revenue being generated out of a new footy base including naming rights sponsor, social events, and better training facilities driving better results on field ... think people are being too hard on Glen ... they seem to have done well off the field given COVID issues and don't blame him for looking tired the other night ... the club is closer than ever to getting their footy base approved with the now strong involvement of the government ... if he pulls it off he has ticked a massive box for the mfc that secures the club for the future when many others have failed. Getting it approved is the equivalent of an off field premiership win

TRAINING: Monday 22nd February 2021
Yes but can he defend ...

Jonathan Brown to take Sam Weideman under his wing
With a free splash of Juggernaut 16 by Jonathon Brown he will be untouchable

2020 Financials: Reduced Debt Despite Loss
Do you recall where the remainder of the $11mil Leighoak sale went of approx $4.4mil (i.e. $11mill minus 6.6mill)?
-
2020 Financials: Reduced Debt Despite Loss
ox_5, seeing as you appear across this, where did he proceeds of the sale of leighoak go? It was sold for $11mill
-
2020 Financials: Reduced Debt Despite Loss
Fair enough ... I think I'm more annoyed they claim to be paying off debt while making a loss without mentioning they had sold down assets to be able to do that
-
2020 Financials: Reduced Debt Despite Loss
Don't like the fact that the Leighoak sale isn't mentioned in any of the financial updates, a bit deceiving and trust takes a bit of a hit as a result. They also liquidated their assets ... more information please!

2021 Full Fixture
Good to see we get our 2 blockbusters as home games in 2021 given covid ruined the 2020 plans $$$

TRAINING: Monday 14th December 2020
Perhaps even Ben Hilfenhaus

Mark Williams New Head of Development
Alot of the posts on here suggest we pulled a rabbit out of the hat by signing Williams. Reality is that no one wanted him and he was desperate for an AFL job to the point he was ringing around. Having said that it doesn't mean he isn't the right person for the job and with the new footy club softcap you need coaches that have multiple facets. Have high hopes he can instill belief and a winning mindset that sees us embrace must win games. Also prefer he does his job in the background away from media

2020 Members Forum
l was invited to read out my question on zoom and was happy to do so. l. believe the club chose me on the basis that my question followed a common theme of interest. Having a succinct question and being a 25 year member may also have helped
