  1. Yeah. Thank god we got Cale Morton instead. Oh wait...
  2. Fair comment, I just think that the culture is a byproduct of how the organisation is run... and Melbourne is no exception. I think the clubs properly run now but it can only be judged in hindsight, and how many games the team has won of course.
  3. I really don’t think that’s how it works mate. While neeld was coach the club was evidently managed poorly but the higher ups and this was reflected in the on field performance. By the time Roos came on board the players were bereft of even the most basic skills of an afl footballer, and he noted this numerous times. I seriously doubt you can put this all down to ‘culture’, as the club was always going to be improve by putting the right people in the right places, both on and off the field.
  4. 2010 was when junior and Bruce left. That year we seemed on the up, being competitive against many top sides (1 point loss and draw against Collingwood being the biggest examples). It was the year after where we were beating most bottom sides one week but were getting smashed by top sides the next. The absence of those two leaders was one of the reasons why that happened.
  5. Sorry mate but you’re absolutely delusional if you think that one rule change is the difference between us finishing 4th and 17th.
  6. Well for one, you can see Sylvia in that photo, and westjet weren't sponsors in 2015 so it was before then.
  7. Look I think it’s funny as hell but let’s be honest, you’re just here because it’s another excuse to sink the boots into the club
  8. You're on fire lately mate, love your work. @Mach5 Any input? You've been quieter than dees fans in september.
  9. I really hope that this plan ends up being a reality. I know this is Melbourne we’re talking about, but i actually have faith that the club is being run professionally for once, at least relative to the other clubs. So I’m quietly confident on this but you never know.
  10. Come on mate, if we drafted Green he wouldn’t get a game in the foreseeable future imo given how many inside mids we already have. He’s literally another Clayton Oliver whose bid would’ve been matched anyway. I reckon it’s okay for teams who AREN’T rebuilding (such as us) to draft based on need.
  11. Not sure if taking the [censored] but it’s almost like he was already locked for GC aye?
  12. It would have been a Ross Fiasco instead. Even Clarko would have struggled with us given how poorly the club was run back then. Are you for real mate?
  13. Well your info is certainly seemingly more credible than mach5’s. Is this the same source that told you months in advance that Harley was keen to play for us?
  14. I'm not saying we're on the right track mate, I'm saying that you still haven't substantiated any of your claims....
  15. Mate, for crying out loud, put up or shut up. These allegations your making towards the club have so far been completely unsubstantiated so until you provide any shred of evidence of what’s going on internally then why should anyone believe you? I mean it’s not like you have information that will lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton or anything...
  16. https://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/564750/a-message-from-our-chairman-and-ceo Let’s hope they walk the walk for once...
  17. True, get ourselves right off field and we can succeed on field. Anyways, Jones is still playing mainly for the sake of leadership and with an actual preseason should hopefully improve on last year.
  18. We did tap players on the shoulder in the past, only problem was that it led to Neeld being coach. Jones is a has been though.
