We don't need a campaign manager, it will become obvious to the incumbents that I am being swept along by the great MFC membership and they will then annoint me. I am working on my aims now. So far I have decided on the following: Get the Dees to play hard, uncompromising, winning football, Eliminate the word culture from our vocabulary, Stop Carlton from getting use of the MCG as a home ground, Lower food and drink prices at the G, Get umpires to give us a fair go, Get 2 Priority picks from the AFL for this year's draft, Ban the MCC from banning anti T$ signs when we play GWS, Free MFC ponchos when it rains, Smash Carlton every time we play them, Win 5 flags to put us ahead of the pack, Get C Wilson to give CS a kiss and make up, Get the media onside with free booze at all MFC media pressers, Cheaper membership tickets and more freebies to go with them, Release news through Demonland wherever possible, Free live stream of MFC games through Demonland, Free coffee and chat with members at least twice a year at AAMI park following a training session, Create a truly inclusive club and to that end I welcome further suggestions, many more to come.

The Chairman will possibly go and probably should. Recent events probably dictate that. The Coach should be safe for a while, unless it is revealed that the players will not play for him. If that is the case he goes as well. On the ground we bring in the young players and blood them.Perhaps a team with Gawn, Dawes, Evans, Kent, Taggert, Tynan and maybe Spencer will be better than one with Byrnes, Rodan, Jamar, Gillies and maybe Sylvia.Next year we can add Hogan and Barry and maybe a couple of class mids courtesy of our high pick and bonus priority pick. We are financially sound ATM and it is the on field that has us in this position. That can turn around quicker than most people understand. We need to find out if the Coach is any good and if not he goes. Keep turning over the list. Eliminate as far as possible draft mistakes, ( we have a new recruiting manager ). Ensure the best development of our kids. Draw a line in the sand and start to create the right culture. The new kids will see to that if we give them the right assistance. Conclusion: stick fat, all is not lost, change, mixed with youth, talent, hunger and passion, can bring success.

I now expect calls from the media for the removal of the Bombers CEO, for presiding over the biggest scandal in AFL history. Secret contracts for injecting players. Young players being injected with unknown substances via the stomache and now awaiting suspension from their sport. An inability of the CEO or club to tell those players what they had been injected with. Clearly worse than the loss of 2 games of football. Come on Robbo and Connolly lets see you attack the club you support. Lets see the media attack Robson.

Now the Media are calling for the AFL to take over the club. Let's examine that. A financially sound Company, that has assets and makes a profit, run by a Board that is elected by its members, is taken over by the AFL, because it lost two sporting contests, Oh yes I can see that happening. The club asking the AFL for help, well that is a different matter.

Has anyone been sacked yet. I am surprised that Rodan got dropped and not Byrnes. They both played poorly, but I thought Byrnes was far worse, in that he fumbled several times a few of which which led to Port goals. I still am not sure why we got him, there had to be better. Ben Warren who we discussed on here a bit would have been far better, much younger and quicker. I could never see the hunger for Pedersen. 2 games last year for the Roos and we were so desperate to get him. I suppose they all deserve another chance.
