  1. Well the future has arrived and we are 5 and 11, with two 5 match losing streaks (High Peformance?). Our membership base is down 8000 on last year (member Engagement?). Did these two comittees ever get formed? What have they done? Do we wait for next years annual report to advise us what they did?
  2. Just wondering why Melksham was cramping as early as the third quarter and into the last quarter. Particularly this late in the season against GC. Did his season start late?
  3. We could put our $30m on the favourite the next at Caulfield.
  4. Speaking of stats I can remember only one HTB all game. Against Viney plus 50 metres and subsequent goal. It paid not to try and move the ball on.
  5. Agree, particularly Fullarton, he is loathe to commit to body contact.
  6. It beats me to this day how a thug and coward like Matthews, who was de-registered as a player, can be regarded by many as an icon of out game.
  7. Maysie or Kossie will toss.
  8. I am not sure that Brad Green intentionally changed the direction of the media or not but on Classified last night Hird went at Green and Clarry was all but forgotten. McGuire went at the club for not embracing the journalist Joel Kennedy. A shame on Hird's part as he knows what it is like to have "issues". What a footy show it is. Rory Sloane may not even be there because as goes to speak either McGuire or Hird shut him down. This unfounded media sensationalism has to stop before someone is hurt.
  9. I think Tom Campbell will play replacing Fullarton. I also think Tom will share more of the ruckwork with Max than perhaps Fullarton did.
  10. Max should kick from shorter distances with his left foot. All thoughts would be on making contact rather than accuracy.
  11. Long kicks from Viney? During practice matches Viney seemed to find team mates with his kicks but not now. A fair percentage of Viney's kicks are smothered and he seems to lack the awareness that it will happen. A favourite player of mine for his tenacity but he doesn't seem to have any peripheral vision and does not sidestep to avoid tackles. It is "get ball, kick ball' and it is usually up and under thus giving team mates a task.
  12. Carlton guns have silver butts.
  13. 2 by no 11 should help this week.
  14. Agreed!
  15. Was it Mario Milano?
  16. So who is president of the footy department of the MFC? Both Battle and Barass don't have contracts?
  17. Your paragraph is correct. The judge said it in court. he delivered the decision, Justice O’Callaghan indicated his “preliminary view” that it was “relatively clear” that each party should bear its own costs. Can I just point out that the above is not in the published judgement so I assume Justice O'Callaghan made some remarks in court. In terms of an independent review I am not sure how that can be achieved; if it is trully independent then neither of the current MFC or Deemocracy should be involved.
  18. Yes Saty. In a previous post I said that given the current climate a review would be ideal. This has been strengthened by the report tonight that Kozzie is also unhappy If the review turns up nothing then there a double win. 1 The club is seen to be addressing concerns 2 Nothing to see here.
  19. Your clutching at straws to make your point valid Saty. In old terms you are having a bob each way. I never mentioned reviews or a review in conjunction with elections. Actually after the court decision last week election issues are almost done with except for 1 issue.
  20. Congratulations on both achievements.
  21. I do get out of it Saty because until now I have never mentioned a review only about elections. Nor have I said there are any issues only that a panel could identify them is there were any. Your not on your game Saty.
  22. I thought the idea of a review is identify whether it be internal or external and the departments to be included. Invite a panel to do the review. The panel to identify issues and offer recommendations The board and club to then decide on what recommendations to adopt. Sounds deal to me given the current climate.
  23. The email, of course, was not sent to those under 18 years of age? Nor was it sent to those who are not financial.
