  1. It was funny listening to Mike Sheehan on SEN this morning when Whately mentioned she was coming on, to which he replied tongue-in-cheek “Is she back from her sabbatical already?”. We are not alone in thinking her absence isn’t a great reflection on her duties as the president.
  2. Roffey to speak on SEN at 10.30 this morning.

    If all else fails. We need to recruit a speedy, skillful draftee that can be blooded on HBF. It’s how Sheezel, Daicos were played too. No has beens.
  4. Seriously need to do some character assessments in drafting.
  5. I think its the perfect time frankly. I had no time for board spills previously, but there has been a systematic gross failure within this club. There are countless isolated incidents, which i was prepared to consider them as isolated. But it has now gotten to the point where enough is enough; death by a thousand cuts, is still death. I would expect nothing short of an extensive external review. I will give the benefit of doubt to the current board to initiate this process. If it does not, then the board need to be challenged.
  6. At least it wasnt an F-. So there is a positive.
  7. Well i think he still plays at a similar level like he did for us. Hasn't really improved that much from what i have seen. With his trade we got Windsor and Jeffo. Just with Windsor alone, i think we already won that trade.
  8. How do the top 5 stack up in terms of agility and speed? We not only need good kickers but players with great athletic ability.
  9. I had this thought exactly this afternoon. Surely not.
  10. Can we borrow Patrick Voss next time we play the Pies.
  11. Still don’t know how this Freo outfit pumped us twice.
  12. Caps of the year. MFCSS is entering new uncharted territory next year. Get ready for all new level of pessimism. Consider yourself warned. Get on the front foot and put me on the ignore list. Coz [censored] gonna get real messed up.
  13. Well if he does he’ll be getting much more publicity than that and will eventually need to front up. But It’s not looking good. If he stays or goes I think Trac is gonna have the same type of year as Oliver has this year. I just hope if he stays we learnt something from Oliver and hold Trac back until he hits all the right markers.
  14. Well fun fact. Most teams do. However where we suck and have sucked for a long long time is punishing from turnover. We just can’t do it. Half backers? Ball movement? Fitness? Spread? No idea.
  15. We stunk it right up old Melbourne style. Gonna take a fair bit to turn this around.
  16. Billing’s.
  17. don’t think we will beat them again anytime soon. Absolutely in our heads.
  18. Watch us get within 2 points
  19. Small sample size, but McVee not working in the midfield.
  20. Not sure about Kolt.
  21. Remember how we finished off the season in 2020? It was important that we gave it everything despite not having a shot at finals. This performance tonight says a lot about intent, resilience and pride. Yes the team is young , but we aren’t even trying. It’s a fn disgrace.
