My father was in Gallipoli in July 1915, then in France from 1916 till the end of the war. That is how he spent his 17-22 birthdays. Long term I do not think he ever settled down after that. He disappeared when I was 5 and Mum was left woth 4 kids under 5. Then 20 odd years later I was in Vietnam as a National Serviceman (1967-68) So Anzac day is a genuine day of reflection (on how lucky we are to have a life)

Actually the articles by the "real" journalists at the Age seemed pretty complimentary & objective, but "Carro's contribution to "journalism" compares favourably with Channel 7's "current affairs" program. I do not think it is in her DNA to say anything positive about Melbourne FC. Actually I feel that Collingwood should have to pay Gus' contract out of their "Player payments" with no salary cap relief considering what they got away with.

Cannot comprehend the love for Lever. His failure to contest is the weakness in his game and gets exposed when May is not there. Otherwise it wa hard to do justice to the all round effort by all the players.

Clarrie is not old enough for Geelong to recruit !!!

No....they are being built for concerts i.e. like Baseball stadia because we are continually trying to be American

Up until just before 3/4 time I think Kozzie thought he was 195cm ,trying to take marks in packs. Stayed on the ground and he would have kicked 5

Great to get a win in Round 1. Good start to the season !!

Not Naughton , hardly saw him today. Could replace Brown when he retires

Give it a rest . He has probably worked harder than a lot of players . Good luck to him. Besides he probably has more brains in his left foot than most of his perennial critics!!

Yes, and there are a lot of schools who cannot afford proper facilities. The amount these blokes earn should be deducted from Govt Grants !!

Pleeeeeeze get someone who can kick straight !!!!

A few posters on this thread seem to think people are commodities. TMac has been part of the backbone of MFC through thick and thin . We must be a Club who bind through loyalties and I feel some posters do not seem to have a loyal bone in their bodies ! I recognise that both of them are in the twilight of their careers (bodywise), lets shwo some sembalance of respect !!!

It wasn't his kicking, but his lack of getting the ball !!

A bit harsh on Sparrow. After McVee the biggest improver of the year. Plus we always knew Rivers was coming !!!
