Nice little interview

I wonder if he is landed whether some folks views of Mahoney will change?

Hmmm, an extreme ruthlessness gets no one anywhere...

The club aims to be ruthless (or good decision makers) every year. So why wait??

Gawnnnnn

That'll serve you well. Best keep on demanding stuff into the internet ether....

Yeah, I thought he was going to be a jet ?.

AFL would be advocating for it...

I'm being tongue in cheek a bit - can you guess which Melbourne player in 2010 did this in his first two matches?

quite a good song by a great band off a cracker of an album.

Good one! I wasn't coming from a dismissive perspective - I was generally interested. I like random facts

On a side note, anyone know how many players at their 3rd club have won premierships?

My take is this - as soon as Goodwin labelled it "Frost ball" he was done at the club. On the surface it looks like an endearing term, dig a bit deeper and it speaks of inconsistency, uncertainty in what will be delivered and in effect, each possession is a roll of a dice. What Goodwin, and actually what we all know is, that players up the field like the certainty of how a player will in effect deliver a ball and adhere to structures. These are the anthesis to "Frost Ball" - he called have easily called it "Frost Roulette".

You''ll be watching with interest irrespective eh...

That's only your opinion that we need him, it's clearly not the FD's collaborative opinion. I'll buy you a slab of beer, or whatever your poison is, if there are more than half the games next year, where some of us shaking our fists at the skies wishing we had Frosty.

I appreciate the kiss, thanks.

Is this an educated guess? Have there been more positions vacated that have not been announced and consequently filled? How do you know this? So many questions...

Nice to see Marty Hore up there too...

Nice work 'Lenny" or should I say "Barry" You are still by far the 'hardest man' on here.

Genuinely curious, why won't he make it @rjay

You are bang on @DeeSpencer, it's what is not said that matters at times. Some interpret our silence as getting shafted/bent over rah rah rah, - all clubs and all personel are part of an industry that is happy to look after all parties, even if appearances from the outside it does not look like it. The AFL still want Melbourne (read ALL teams) to be competitive due to TV rights... It could be King, it may not be, and I guarantee that there is an agreement for something ie:, player, political, financial assistance, other , hence the carry on as usual stance.

When I come on to the forum for some chuckles...I keep getting mislead by the name @Demonsone vs @demonstone. One is essentially positive and one less so... One letter makes a massive difference.

It's all a lovely big sexy sticky sweaty orgy on this forum when we are winning though...

@Rusty Nails - give us a list of whom should be traded in. Then let me know if those players would want to leave their respective clubs and or want to come to the Dees mate? Resting on Laurels? I feel that comment is unfair. At the midway mark of the season, they delisted a range of coaches, and fitness staff. With respect to your 'past tense' "this trade period was" - it's still active mate...and you and I both have no idea what is happening with conversations... Methinks your pessimism is getting in the way of being objective this particular morning.

I don’t have an answer here, but what I find fascinating is what reasons the Football Department see Frost as either expendable/problematic to their game plan going forward - or why they’re prepared to lose someone with trade currency, in service of obtaining what or whom going forward. Anyone make some sense on this for me?
