AFLW: Rd 06 vs GWS Giants
We stopped trying to handball constantly in this game, it doesn't work in 2024. . Maybe Mick has finally got the message.... just kick the thing to get territory, especially since we now have a number of players who can kick 40m. Love Pisano and what she will offer for the future. Strong, fast and a natural footballer. The sooner we get her into the middle the better. Probably not this year though.

Lachie Hunter Retires
Exactly. so the picks to replace the 6th and 7th player will be in the nineties and beyond . Probably, already got to get rid of Fullarton, Billing’s next year with TMac and Melk to retire, because we couldn’t afford to have 9 players gone this year.

2025 Membership
Home games. You don't get reserved seats to away. And I have responded to the Premium member survey to highlight this in the same way as happened to @The heart beats true. Every Collingwood and Carlton game, their supporters have had to be thrown out of Tridents area. But only after the members have pointed it out to security staff.

Training Ground?
No..the return in terms of yield from the pokies was far greater than what could be gained from any investment which is not in the junk bond-crypto type areas. They would have to reach about 10% return to just break even from what we had before.

...and unfortunately the members will find out once the financials come out this year without pokies revenue. Meanwhile other clubs still have theirs or are going to "divest" sometime......

Nothing to do with us. It’s for their own development at the track.

Please keep the conversation on topic. If personal information is sought, then DM the individual.- Training Ground?
…..and don’t forget the admin side of things. We currently occupy broom cupboard space in the MCG spread over several areas. It is amateur in the extreme.- Welcome to Demonland: Jack Billings
- AFLW: Rd 03 vs North Melbourne
Exactly. How many times did we turn it over kicking back into the corridor? Why no Paxman in the middle instead of Mithen who has no strength? The game has changed Mick.- Training Ground?
...and don't our players know it. They have friends who they played with, who are now at other clubs, so they know exactly what others have and we don't. They will have seen for themselves with just a short trip across the road to Collngwood or to Tullarmarine, or to Whitten oval or to Carlton, or know what Hawthorn are building at Dingley.- Welcome to Demonland: Jack Billings
- Training Ground?
It gets shut down during the Australian open, at the peak of the pre season. No closed sessions can be run at Goschs for tactical drills. We don’t have an indoor facility at AAMI like every other club in the competition, and the one at Casey was built for VFL-AFLW, and is still only half the size of what others have.- Training Ground?
…..and then back again. At least 2 hours each time that could be spent in further training or enjoying life instead of sitting on the Monash freeway car park.- MEMBERSHIP TALLY
Thanks...missed that one, but we still won the "lost members" premiership by a long margin..... ...and all manner of membership types are counted. e.g I count for 3 memberships with AFLW, MCC and Tridents but there is still only 1 me. Truth is we only have about 40K real live bodies who are eligible to vote- MEMBERSHIP TALLY
Most importantly we lost 5,306 members. Only 3 other clubs lost members in 2024. Richmond with 2,860, Essendon with 2,610 and North with 456. Those numbers for us will drop again next year off the back of a 14th place. Asleep at the wheel is a good description of what has been going on behind the scenes.- Training Ground?
The fight is over the mounting yard and the grandstand ( demolish or not). It has nothing to do with the stables where we want to go.- Christian Petracca
I was hoping for @Bitter but optimistic- Kate Roffey Steps Down
...and as we can see from the dates included....The BOARD under Roffey has had NO strategic plan for the past 12 months, and we still have nothing today. No wonder the club has no idea where it is going and what it is doing.- Kate Roffey Steps Down
No it’s not. It is one of the best facilities in the league. And includes administration which we do not have with the second rate stuff that we have. And it is proof that’s a functioning Board can achieve in 10 years.- Training Ground?
...and Hawthorn have been fundraising for this for the past couple of years. What have we been doing in preparation? Nothing. Imagine how much would have been contributed by our members post Premiership toward a future base fund.- AFLW: Rd 02 vs Brisbane
Is there any chance Zander could play in front?- Kate Roffey Steps Down
