That article is amazing, they just talk absolute rubbish don't they most of the time, the very definition of "shoot your mouth off" is those guys on their shows. I guess that's their job though...talking stuff to keep people entertained, no need for it to be any good most of the time. Puts all the pundit comments into proper perspective though reading that.

Sharp should have been "axed" and Billings brought in! God damn guy was #3 draft pick get him in the side he's red hot baby!!

I would hope…if Jeffo and JVR can gel and get bigger and stronger we will be in business

Hahaha not sure I’ve ever been “mate’ed” by my mum, but then again she’s old school.

Thank you so very much everyone for the training reports. They, along with many other things on this forum, are something I really like reading. Your efforts are very much appreciated :)

So is everyone probably.

Yeah "axed" is a very classless way to report these faithful club people being moved on...they have done great things for us in the past they deserve more respect from the silly media than that. Stay classy please.

I for one love our mix of old and new in the club currently, I don't want to get rid of any of the older guys they will mentor and train up the new guys and that is very important. Just youth is going to set us back longer if we don't have the right older crew around them as they come up.

Woohoo good news!

I would like to see Billings get a go, I feel like he's shown way more than some of our current seniors but this is the issue...there are absolute galaxies between AFL and VFL level its a massive gap!

This is exciting then, finally a bit of luck or something we can get excited about.

Good there are some wankers on here sometimes, just had a great win and some still want to whinge about something…oh well, haters gonna hate. Is it too much to ask Billings to bring some of his vfl form to the seniors? Surely he’s wondering by note why he isn’t getting a look back in the senior team. I mean we all know what sound probably happen, but I feel like he’s been working harder than ever and something has shifted for him because he really is up the top of the stats quite regularly now isn’t he?

Do people really thing its predetermined and they'd go through a public charade for the sake of it? What a waste of time if they do that...surely not!

This ^^ ...I hope you're wrong but yeah can't help feeling a bit like this. Doesn't matter now I guess.

Well I know one thing...I'll be tuning in to watch On The Couch tonight to see what Bucks has to say about the Dees...I am all of a sudden very interested.

Hahahaha

Ah I did not know this...interesting...cheers for the info.

I think the Bucks idea is a good one but to think they will do it without a proper process is pretty dumb, of course they will go through the process they're not [censored]. Simpson whatever, didn't want him anyway he doesn't want to be a coach right now. Maybe someone else in the footy department would have been nice but oh well, not fussed. Longmire has done great things but also not into it right now, fair enough, you need someone to want it. John Ralph is a bit of a mug, just seems to like posting stuff, still they must get their stuff from somewhere. Really who cares what any of them say, if Bucks is the right man for the job then so be it he will inherit a great list of players who are already doing some very good things and he knows that. Would be great to see Jordan Lewis come in too so on that note bravo Ralphy you mug I think the club would do well to get guys like this who are not only big names and probably quite attractive to players and sponsors alike, but also they have been doing nothing but analyzing the game for a while now and both seem quote measured and reasonable. Love the fact that Bucks really REALLY wants a flag too. I do worry how his personality would go with our playing list though trying to boss them around, that's my only worry, Goody has a wonderful relationship with the players and everyone knows it. Could someone like Bucks have a relationship that good? Doubtful but you never know.

Just get Roos to coach again!

Jai looks so good out there and is easily keeping his spot, that says to me that we're onto something and you can clearly see it with him that he has come to play and brings a lot to our team. Very happy with him getting his shot and very clearly playing well and keeping that spot in the team.

What has Bucks said on all his media appearances about which Melbourne players he would be trading etc I wonder?

Def warming to Bucks...something I never thought I'd do to be honest.

Haha no way these guys haven't been contacted yet by the club, very good deflection though and ultimately I think they just are respecting Goody because its all so fresh. Very professional.

Honestly don't mind the Bucks idea...at first I didn't like it, but warming, especially since he's spent so long analyzing the modern game now and seems to speak very intelligently about all things football, he seems interested and likes the current list etc. he almost talks like an optimistic Melbourne supporter I kind of like it. Would be wonderful to be able to get a good head coach, and Adam Simpson as a head of football or something like that.
