    Yep and after ahhhh how many years........56 you can find some positives??? Give me a break. The amount of bungling, shocking draft selections,inability to develop players.. Over many many years ,Has meant we are almost still STILL a basket case!! Oh tell me that the 20 or so points we lost to West Coast 2 weeks ago was an aberration!! We were MILES of the pace. Look carefully at some of the players who STILL can get a game!! Spare Me!! Sorry!! Goody aint the answer and u can write of this year. Make no mistake we are still Pretty GOD damn ordinary!!

    Tom Flower, should have played a lot more games than he did ! Silky smooth left footer, evasive skills, Quick and could kick a goal. Kicked 5 Against the Filth which says a lot. His Demon Wiki stats are very impressive. But Carl Ditterich didn't like him so that was the end at MFC. Best First year player 1977 Top bloke as well!!

  15. If Spargo plays another game then we really are stuffed.. If we think O MACS one game "Blinder" is promise of things to come?? Think again If we think Max can ruck all day with a Brown as back up ... Think again If Hibberd is not finished .. Then Think again If Nev .. in spite of heroics isn't near the end?? Think again If selling one of the few with Pace "Sam Frost" was a masterstroke... Think again If we think Bailey is a Key Forward.. Think again! If we think Tommy Mac can play..... Think again! IF IF we think Simon Goodwin is the messiah .. who will lead us out of the Desert???? TAKE A TATTSLOTTO TICKET go the bed and wake up to find??? Sheeit I got 20 Cents under my pillow and I never lost any teeth! YEAH.... SHORT CHANGED YET AGAIN!
