  1. Tanking killed the spirit of the list, the players who played through those years i fear we have "lost" I will be amazed if many of them are with us in 2014. The damage that CS' template caused is still unfolding. The MFC is irrelevant to most people outside the supporter base, and who could blame them. I remember the Bears of '87. They were a joke. That is where we are right now.
  2. It won't be hard to find a seat at the QB game the following monday for starters.
  3. My point is St. Kilda has treated it's members very poorly since moving to Etihad. My brother is a coterie member. Even when they were pulling good crowds 40,000 + they were still paying out often. Their members have had enough. We the MFC still have a chance if we can attract the right business people.
  4. St. Kilda signed a deal to play home games at a privately owned Etihad Stadium. They only have themselves to blame. They signed not long after Essendon.
  5. Deanox Richmond wasted so many opportunities up forward. It had nothing to do with how well we played. The effort that day was better than most games this season, but it still was not near good enough. It just shows how bad the last few years have really been. Mark Neeld's assessments are that of a man getting desperate to hold his job. I do not blame him for that, he is just not ready to coach this sick girl. We are just that far behind the comp.
  6. You were happy with the Richmond effort were you?Time to lift your expectations like the whole club.
  7. Barassi went to Carlton. Since then it is all possible. A 6 year Kennett term would set the MFC up for the long term hopefully. He would get people to the club.
  8. Many people have said nasty things about the MFC since 2007, a lot of them considering where we are wer probably right. If the MFC are to survive and get strong we have to suck it up and learn. I am not saying Kennet is the man, but after watching his last performance on Footy Classified before the season started that is the type of person we need to lead this club out of this very delicate situation.
  9. Last time i looked Jackson was an Essendon man. But you just keep abusing people Rhino its what you do well. If we do not get fresh perspectives inside this club it WILL die.
  10. Look up "Saudi drifting accidents" on Youtube. I think this is what you mean!!
  11. rpfc we have been picking Demons from our own tree for a long time. We need some outside perspective and leadership. Not the whole board, but definately some. We are where we are...
  12. I heard him on SEN before games not long after Jimma died saying how sad it was that the MFC was not a power. John Kennedy learnt all his craft from Norm Smith. We were the Power.... I am not a huge Jeffrey fan politically but he is the exact type we need to be able to stand up. We do need some outside people.
  13. Let me add. I am not a FH Member at present, but with the right appointments made, i am prepared to financially back a new ticket. But this time it has to be right. I would even be in the ear of Jeff Kennett. He has stated he wants a strong MFC in the comp.
  14. I have been concerned since Round 1 2012 Ron. There has been NO IMPROVEMENT ON FIELD. It is all above the shoulders so it is the coach who must take the rap. He is a teacher who is not teaching 20 months in.
  15. I am happy to contribute as long as the incoming President, coach, Board & CEO (if Jackson is not there past 6 months...i think he will stick around) have considerable experience & success already achieved. If the MFC hire a whole set of Rookie hopefuls again i shall withdraw all financial backing. This really is the line in the sand moment. The Red & Blueprint has done a full 360 in 6 years. But what happened after the 2010 Swans Massacre..What went sour? We were on the right track till that point.
  16. He is well connected...
  17. yes i certainly did want to go to court Rhino. I have made that clear ad nauseum to you. You disagree. Fine. And Yes the AFL will be in the door whether i like it or not. We are still part of the larger comp.
  18. He has "Open for Inspections" & Auctions to attend on weekends. Would be a good player mentor in all seriousness
  19. But how many more 100 point thrashings can the old girl handle. You have to weigh it up Ralph. We are a long way from another win. And most of the players Neeld drafted last summer are in the 2's. it is just not working.
  20. Fair call. Neeld may be the man, but if he is he MUST CUT THE SPIN to those outside the circle. Tell the membership what is exactly happening. I think we all feel disconnected right now, i sure do. It is why i cannot attend games. If Neeld wants the job he must open up to all. That goes for whoever gets the job. The members need to know. I don't want anymore of my $$$ paying for fines that the CEO was ultimately responsible for. I wonder if any of the senior MFC Players of the day spoke to Brock Mclean before he did OTC spot last year. Would be the best way to have a second go at Schwab. Have considered that for awhile
  21. Interesting take Cudi. You maybe on the money. Whatever the answers they are not going to be pretty. The realization that this club is back in heavy debt only 2 years after Jim died whilst we have not moved ladder position tells me that the wrong people are in power. They were chosen to work under Jimmy, not to make ultimate decisions.
  22. You nake some good points Dr. But Neeld is to inexperienced for this monumental task. I do not blame him as he did not hire himself, but he is out of his league at the MFC. We need the best of the best to give us a fighting chance. 50 years of neglect and sellfish quick decision making have us where we are.
  23. you will have a living display in 5 days. Incompetence Inc. this sunsay arvo.
  24. It would be interesting to dangle a carrott at The "Chemist" Worsfold. We need to poach someone. Stand up & not take the leftovers. Worsfold aint perfect but he would toughen them up. Wet Coke train so much harder than us we are told last night. So get him over East. A challenge.
