  1. Once your in the limelight you cannot afford to get into any trouble or you end in the public eye and you cannot hide. YOU WILL BE CAUGHT!. It is like Hollywood. Poor Jack I feel for him.
  2. Petracca stays Oliver does too it is simple. 2 peas in a pod. Mcclure the dribbling dreamer !
  3. Cut short he had something to offer himself and the club. Bennell just needed to lift a notch wrapping him in cotton wool and having him ready 2021. Bennell made his own decision he must live with it. IMO he club did the best they for him.
  4. Who would you want Paddy who hasn't played for sometime now, would be too risky to take a chance with. He was wearing a helmet I believe and had after effects. He was looking to play in the near future. However if he copped a knock to the back of the head when contesting it might do him more harm. IMO not worth taking the chance. You would get more value out of an out of form Tmac than Paddy McCartin. We are not the Rehab / Charity club. we can't afford to be..
  5. Lets go after Ben hard. A three year deal to someone that knows the forward line and is an accurate kick. His height of 200cm will stretch any back line and can take a mark. Put him beside a Luke Jackson almost 200 cm himself and any team would have nightmares which would be thinking about the Twin towers during the week. Brown will be 28 so l think a 3 year deal would be fair. Gawn resting in the pocket next to Brown our crumbers will be salivating. Brown would make a difference IMO.
  6. What a magnificent jumper we had at the time in the 60s . No logos. The sponsorship logos now spoil the look of our great jumper. What a shame ! .
  7. Yes! good call..........Polly. He probably hasn't the endurance that Langdon has but who does. Hannan is a good mark and a good size for a wing position.. His pinpoint passing is almost perfect. He will be 27 at the start of the 2021 season with a mature body. Could be a masterstroke ! It would probably come down to a strong pre season from him. Is Goody listening.
  8. Maxy Gawn on the interchange bench, that is 4 AA selections congratulations Max. Gawny played 14 games and virtually rucked on his own. Not many ruckmen could carry the ruck load on there own and deliver the goods throughout the game let alone the year as he can. Grundy had an average year by his standards and Goldstein was outpointed by Preuss in a big victory by the Dees and then he tapered off for the remainder of the year. Well done Max you do deserve your selection . Why should anyone be surprised.
  9. It feels good to have a power house midfielder in Christian Petracca selected as an All Australian 2020 . One of many to come l hope.
  10. Take care Jack your career had it's ups and downs but your supporters rode the waves with you. I was one of them. Your marking and kicking for goals and ball skills were exquisite . That run on the outer wing against the old enemy QB and the goal that sealed the game will forever be in my memory. To me you will always be a Melbourne man and one of my favourite players. ALL the best moving on.
  11. Brother in Arms Oliver, Trac, Gawn and co you can see the love , real Bros. Not going anywhere soon They have a job to finish.
  12. I thought that Maysie spoke quite well and is a very humble person and was gracious . One part of his speech said that he thought he was privileged to finish so close to Christian such was his domination. Well said Steven May you are a deserved winner youself and hope you go one better in 2021. You are a champion person.
  13. NO S May in the 40 man squad impossible ! not to be selected it is a shame. Gut wrenching.! Could this be the best Full back of 2020 IMO not to make the AA 40 man squad? You Bet Yah ! Can not believe it.
  14. As long as Collwd and Dangerfields P_ Cats don't win it who cares.
  15. May, Langdon or Petracca they have played every game and performed outstandingly. Second to none Professional - like. No disrespect to Oliver he has had a consistent year. Imo Christian Petracca has had a standout year and gave us what we expect of him. I think he will receive the Bluey Truscott ....... S MAY and Langdon will be close behind. If Christian claims the B&F it will be interesting to hear his speech.
  16. John Northey My favorite coach for being down to earth building great relationships and getting the best out of his players. The facilities at the time when training at the junction oval were more than sub standard however he managed to get us into 5 consecutive finals series with a Prelim in 87 and a Grand Final in 88. Northey gave us some great memories.
  17. I will now make a commitment to Zurich insurance myself . Zurich is one of the worlds largest Insurer for life insurance.
  18. I have noticed that the last 2 games he has been chasing kicks and taking marks and linking up the ground. also found in the back half to help out against GWS where he helped win the game in the last quarter. Put in a good one against his old club and is a shue in for a 1 year contract at the least IMO. He reminds me a lot of Cam Pederson that was a real honest goer and did well for us.
  19. We cannot afford to cut too many unless we trade The IMO will be minimal. KK . injury list for too long Concussion Nietscke Knee reco times 2 .....Risky Dunkley No games played 2020 Jones Time is up Great servant Jetta Touch and go he will possibly make the call. Smith Played last 3 games Trade or Delist Has a contract Why? He was given the games in the hope there would be some currency on the table. IMO. These are the first steps l would be looking to do.
  20. Almost agree Omac might be delisted however he kindly opens the door to Joel Smith, after you Joel. Contract or not.
  21. We will improve again in 2021 an l don't write off 2020 for the adversities that most of the clubs went through except for the Power, Lions, and Eagles. Talk about advantages. We beat some good sides and lost to the mediocre one's. We couldn't keep with the very good sides because personally we weren't good enough. Petty will be a welcome addition to playing next year ,I rate him. and Marty Hore as well. .Marty or Petty would have been a better proposition than playing Joel Smith unfortunately both were injured. We must get rid of the deadbeats empty the cupboard and chuck them in the trash. Let's hope they chase a Key forward if not draft a couple of young ones and hope that one at least comes good. The other alternative is to get back Jesse Hogan he will compliment our forward structure regardless. I hope the FD have something cooking in the coming Trade period anything that can help.
  22. UNEXEPTIBLE l am sorry NO EXCUSES How many chances does someone need. Rules are there for good reasons. Bennell should know better. Something is not connecting with the culture that the MFC has around them.
  23. We only see one part of the evidence. The cameras are not on the other side, are they? If there are more doings in the huddle then no wonder the concentration and listening to Goody is not getting through to most in the team they have the minds on something else. What the ? Do we need this ? Do it at you own time............ That is your secret and keep it to yourselves.
  24. If the Dogs win so be it. We had our chances and dropped our guard and in all honesty we don't deserve to be there. That doesn't mean that l like to see the Dogs in instead of the Dees. The hell with that! Come on Freo i will be barracking like there is no tomorrow. The pressure will be on the Dogs and Freo's team looks good on paper even though Walters is not there. However Hogan could be the difference. So go my new team for the day.
  25. What about Changes for the Preliminary Final? Chunky should be right, Hannan for his runs around the boundary , TMac and OMac
