  1. Lin Jong ( have I spelt it correctly) has had a horrendous run of injuries but I really rate him highly!
  2. Yep agree I would love to have an Alan Jacovich running around today. Tingay was a sensational player A better comparison might have been Jacovich Vs Robbo!?
  3. We could call it From "Versace to Dimmeys" ( what-ifs maybes might have beens)
  4. 2 meters sheeeeeit Just when I was erasing it from memory and the Chump Hooked it Jaheeesus all he had to do was drop it in a straight line onto his boot!! Typical Ormond Ammo! Would not have happened at De La far too Polished! Shocking shocking miss !!
  5. Definately amd emphatically NOT We already have one with KK, Do we want to take a very risky and already life comprimised player into the fold?? Nup!
  6. Alan Johnson similar to Stretch, ah no sorry, no where near top 20 or 22! Brett Lovett, on the other hand would have been a great player in ANY era! IMV Criminally underated!
  7. YZE by a Zillion yards TJ a very very lazy footballer!!
  8. Oh Gawd why did you have to bring up his name?? His Miss in the 87 Preliminary Final was possibly the worse miss in the History of the game!! Just when I was erasing it from my memory !!?
  9. I think you have got it Jeremy Nichols if correct good get!!?
  10. Ok and so given that then players clearly still haven't learnt that you have to be ACCOUNTABLE and play two way footy! Agree some very simple goals but still I believe our shocking habit to just bomb long should have been remedied LONG ago!

    Terry Wilkins Kelvin Clarke Dennis Clark Marty Lyons Daryl Cumming Peter Thorne all played some good footy at MFC Greame and Ken Osborne, the former, a great player over many years for MFC in some dark days Paul Rowlands, Phil Rhoden, Obscure but played some footy at MFC, Marty Lyons kicked 4 on debut vs Footscray at the G. His son Jarred Lyons should be an MFC Player, we did have the chance and for some reason reneged on the opportunity. Now a great player at Brisbane! Good bloke Marty! Peter Thorne heck of a nice bloke and once kicked 8 goals in a senior game Is it just me or do others agree that in many cases the MFC DIABOLiCAL in developing and nurturing players throughout the ages compared to many other clubs!

    I thought him pretty average and slowish!
  14. Agree and what...... Exactly, had we done about that TERRIBLE inside 50 connection in the off season?????? Over to the coaches and if not coaches, players who cannot carry out the strategy. If the players then get rid of those who are perennial offenders and get in some who CAN DELIVER. If coaches then at the end of season, expect to see some major changes at MFC
  15. Here we go!!!? There were Two Tossol's, John and Peter, brothers, both played Senior Footy at MFC

    That wouldn't have been Chandler High, would it Swoop?
  17. Yes I probably had written him of as well, BUT Never say never, If he was to get on the park again it would put a smile on a lot of peoples faces around here and give great cause for optimism. GO HARLEY! Time the great Healer! This time of even better for him!

    Paul "The Count" Callery would be one of the best people I have ever had the privilege to know! Underrated but GREAT player, University Doctorate in Sports and Exercise Science AND fully qualified Carpenter/ Builder ( Hows that for Obscure not widely known info) Brilliant Golfer, Excellent Cricketer, Shocking fisherman! Just a wonderful human being!!
  19. The fact that the National Competetition began in 1987 should therefore include that season Rob Flower 's last year and so he should be NO1 Schwarz was a better player than Gary Lyon. James Mc Donald a better player than Brad Green and or Cameron Bruce Clarry Choo Choo too low Brett Lovett always one of first picked for the big V Not sure Todd Viney gets a gig I reckon Glenn Lovett was a better player when not injured! Steve Tingay to low Shaun Wight should be lower
  20. How we ever let Kevin Dyson go I'll never know!!? hard nosed midfielder with a touch of class and a thumping kick.

    Great Bloke Bails and a sensational Cricketer Batsmen and Fielder!
  22. Spargo Delist?? Why wasn't it done at end of last season?? Brown gets another go But Weeds comes in for sure! Jackson plays rest of the year. Maybe Rivers as well. Hibberd Gone!!
