How typically Melbourne Brodie Grundy
Because that's what Demonlanders do! We never should have traded for Grundy for reasons X, Y Z but now that we had him, we never should have traded out Grundy for reasons X, Y Z people are [censored] [censored] on this site.

Farewell Alex Neal-Bullen
This thread is like having a euology before you die. Brilliant. Good to see the love from most of the posters.

The 2024 Positives Thread
Annus Horribilis. Thinking of 2025, it reminds me of this beauty from 1988* it's so good I chose to hide it behind this link.

That's the spirit! Do you frequent the "Time To Go Goody" thread much?

Best question to ask is that one - who is part of the next flag? Now comparing these two isnโt fair due to age but 5 years ago there was no way ANB would have been seen as key part of the flag. AND sometimes people surprise us. Youโd prefer it to be on Tomโs terms and itโs probably time to move on to a fine fine servant who had seen all the peaks and troughs of a club originally in disarray and rebuilt himself and his skill set numerous times. We donโt win the flag without him ๐

NON-MFC: Round 22
It proves how tight the industry really is - which you would hope transcends how its own supporters make sense of how the Dees have gone this year.

I sometimes like to imagine the posters that like to use language like 'spuds, inept, disgraceful', 'soft mentality' being invited into the FD to have their critiques and 'robust' comments heard, whilst using the same language that they use on here. If it was face to face, eyeballing the coaching staff, eyeballing the players, I'd suggest the language wouldn't be as inflammatory, and you'd probably converse with respect and genuine curiosity in trying to make sense of why things play out they way they do. But, if you were the type to continue to use that language because, a) you can't read the room, or b) you dress it up in the guise of "fearless conversations" on behalf of an aggrieved supporter base, I'd imagine you'd be told by the employees of the MFC to politely come back at a later time. While enthusiasm for our club is commendable, it's important to remember that first hand experience in the industry offers unique insights and perspectives, that until you have it - you're just making uninformed statements.

PREGAME: Rd 22 vs Port Adelaide
"desperation", "rolling the dice", "trusting players to do the job" same decision - different lens - so choose your language "argh the season's shot- play the young kids" whilst gnashing teeth that the seasons shot... And whilst on form, it doesn't look great - at least the FD is more optimistic than some of you lot...

Darren Burgess Potential Return to Victoria
Such a weird article, well only if the conversations and contracts haven't already be concerned. Burgess, who only has eyes for Voss, (but not the Melbourne Football Club being a key component of their premiership in 2021)

Wildcard Weekend
Yes, I was inferring it is all about the $ - thatโs their business. Itโs a great junket. And is now at saturation point and I donโt see the younger generations having the same interest or attention span that maybe some of us on here do. ๐

PREGAME: Rd 22 vs Port Adelaide
Personally, if I could, I would create a banner for him - I think you should create a banner for him or maybe get @WalkingCivilWar in on the action. Maybe something like "Dan Houston, your long kicking is a form of art Feel the vibes of a members wing And don't forget Hells Bells, is better than Never Tear Us Apart"

Nah, it's merely about creating discussion points in a public forum. All versions of exposure and content.

Trade Targets
Often i think that if someone goes to a third club, then there is something around their competitiveness on the ground, or culture off the ground, that is the issue... then I remind myself of Martin Pyke.
