I think we will keep him for one more year in hope, as it would be too much of an embarrassment to admit we stuffed up with pick 12 . There are enough others who have had a chance and been found wanting who will go first. If he gets another year he will have to show something or he will be gone. It has been suggested to me that we might delist and rookie him. No danger of anyone else grabbing him.

On a different note, Jack Fitzpatrick has been getting better each week and is now kicking a few goals each game. He is moving well and starting to really look much more confident in his game. He has also filled out considerably and with a good pre season, I believe we will have another big strong versatile player. Much like Martin he can play ruck or key forward and he has pace as well. With Gawn they look like our future big man department and not to forget we have a another huge player at full forward in Clark.

Our late President says we didn't tank and that no instruction to tank was ever given, but that rather we took advantage of a system, that he didn't agree with anyway. His captain concurs and said the MFC didn't tank while he was there, which was during the relevant period. We have heard another player PJ, say that we didn't tank. Our coach has previously said that he coached to assist the development of the club and in the interests of the club. He never said we tanked. The club was investigated then and cleared. Brock McLean never said we tanked but rather experimented. The AFL don't believe tanking exists. Surely this will end positively for us soon.

Problem is that Saints are considering putting Reiwoldt out for the year. That is a sign to the team that they have conceded and then the hunger goes for the players. Don't think they could beat Blues in that situation. Also Blues % will be so much higher than Freo next week after they smash GC. Only hope seems to be Freo beating North and then us.

A Freo win today and loss to North next week could see them tied with the Blues going into the last round. If the Blues have a big win next week against GC, it might come down to us losing by a big margin to Freo in Perth as to whether the Blues make the 8. I would be praying for a Saints win over the Blues and if that didn't happen I would be happy to see us have a big loss to Freo, if it kept the Blues out. Freo still need to get the job done today of course. Could be an interesting weekend in the final round.

This season drags on and we just can't escape the negativity about the club. Brad Miller retires and says MFC were good to him, but the Tigers were really great. 2 seasons with the Tiges and he says they were the great club. Jurrah heads off to spend time with his family in Adelaide and the media suggest we have seen his last game. If true another exciting Melbourne player cut down way too early. Then on the Footy Show, Barrett says the tanking investigation is widening and a result could come late next week and it might not be good. Robbo on 360 says more of the same and says the Hun tomorrow will have a 3 page spread on the issue. I can safely assume it will not be helpful to us. Most of what I hear and see about the club is negative.
