Mike Sheehan doesn't barrack for Melbourne he barracks for no one and if anyone it's footscray

I think you were right he trained did pre season work used there weight rooms etc as they had already committed to him. Still played tac etc but was down at bomber land probably wasnt involved though as the bombers wanted to keep it hush hush and he wasnt only playing for them so it was a risk to show him the program

Players can commit to whoever they want bit they still need to be traded there

When sheedy talked a out giving up pick one it was for a top five player at the club so shouldn't we have the same expectations What about Martin... The 600k wouldn't bother use especially as out list is paid the same as Hawthorn

The thread wasnt about the priority pick more roos saying he would trade 1 or 3 (subject to us getting them) for a ready made midfielder) A few have scoffed at Cochin and jack which I agree with but why not have a shot... Judd left when he was captain Who would of thought we would of got Clark not me Who would of thought we would of got roos...not in a millions years So why not try pry loose a superstar especially as we have the psd in our favour

If he has been speaking to the club since round two wouldn't that indicate it was under the old administration??? That means schwab and don would of commenced this and pj finishing it off... Just saying

In Paul roos article about melbournes side he stated he would trade pick 1 or 3 for the best available midfielder (assuming we got the priority pick which I feel will come into place) Who should we target?? Swallow for pick 3 ?? Fyfe for pick 3 Cotchin for pick 1 (I no wont happen) I would try for kieren jack for pick 1 Interesting to see if it happens I also really love the way Paul roos(yes I think he is a certainty) values picks... He goes through the last ten years of persons at that number and said would you prefer the traded player on the historical player now... Great way to work it out

Agreed but terlich isn't a lockdown player so why he is on Ballantine I have no idea

Does he even barrack for mfc??? Or is this an afl appointment??

I understand the difference between aerobic and anaerobic training methods... The reason I highlighted the comments was the suggestion by other clubs that we were not training for afl and our training techniques/methods were being questions This obviously links into body shape and if the clubs is trying a different method as I believe both Watts and Moloney were told to lose weight from last season... Afl bodies were alot lighter seven years ago wonder if we are trying to head towards that model

I always thought the fitness was below afl standard was an excuse for neeld to buy time... I can believe our list was young hence the standard base was lower but guys like jones and even green Moloney have been in the system and can't be that much lower... The previous fitness guy was from hawthorn bailey was from port they all understand afl standards A recent article listed mfc fitness as an issue as other clubs had commented that we are doing all aerobic/long distance stuff and no power short burst work which is required for afl. They were interesting comments after the big deal that was made about our improved training

Worst article I have ever seen... A anything is possible comment from SOS and they would trade for him.... BS at that price they get him as a free agent and still have pick one

You can approach chocco and eade during the season I believe you can't appointment/announce them until they have finished their season thus no one leaving with a couple of games to go etc etc

Thought it deserved its own thread that Paul roos has been backed in from $6 last week to $1.80 this morning.... Looks like a done deal

Fitz is a fwd who can ruck rather than someone like gawn who is a ruckman that they send fwd... Hopefully he can keep it up but with the rule changes to a interchange cap he has a position created for him by the afl

Was super disappointed after ceasing my player sponsorship (and that doesn't include how poor the mfc were during the last year of sponsorship were I provided feedback that they just assumed we would pay because of our love for club rather than establishing a relationship with anyone ) ... I told them due to personal circumstances I would most likely not be able to continue with an Elite Player sponsorship.... Amazingly not one call to attempt to sell me a membership, a lower level player sponsorship or push me towards young/future demons... In sales I'm referred to as a hot source and if you aren't calling persons like me you have absolutely no idea hence why we lost 000s of members every year

Is Clarke on the lti or just listed as indefinite

I think Milne can consider himself to be a very very luck guy.... He had internal vic pol help 9 years ago which resulted in him not being charged... If that had not occurred he would of been charged in 2004 and on the ex player scrap heap no later than 2005 He has been able to earn a very very good wage (well above the normal person) for the past eight years so should thank his lucky stars

By the look of it schwab wanted the rocket up the senior players after there attempt to oust him... He gave mark neeld that agenda to rocket the senior players and the history turned the players against him...

I wanted chocco but mainly because of ports dominate period and a flag but god I may have flipped after some remarks from roos... He said on the couch I would go for eade as he coached me and I learnt everything I know off him... Just thinking about it if we want roos so much eade should probably be in front

It did show what he was trying to do with culture but missed the mark I think the captain one was a good example he had ten behaviours they were rated on and trenners and grimes were the standouts but it demonstrates small time thinking being an afl captain is about behaviours but its inly half of it and the other way wasnt rated what about advice to other players, holding the group to standards, media commitments etc etc

I have posted a few cracks at neeld as I thought he was a poor coach but he was all class He did a few things wrong without a doubt but he did what schwab and McCardy wanted and was tasked with... He took a long term approach sadly they all got the flick so he just took a chance and missed the opportunity

Damn people aren't that stupid are they??? He was signed for two years because he took the bullet for Melbourne as the whole admin tanked but only one person was suspended... It was a thanks for taking one for the team But with the same admin gone the afl was happy to pay out cuddles contract as part of the hand out as they know they tanked but couldn't prove it this just got him out of the industry... Although cuddles was in a commercial role not a football role which he hasnt been for two years... Saying this I seriously wonder about some of the contracts for ex players in admin commercial roles as I doubt there payment equals there commercial experience

And I was saying he was wrong the players didn't vote out green davey Beamer and rivers from the leadership group especially as all those players were votes in the year before

Don't think Beamer was voted out by the players (he was in the previous year and top it off with b N f and 18 brownlow votes) The coaches voted them out
