Sir Why You Little

that's the one. Thanks song. BANG!! BANG!!

I have a picture of Denham but i can't upload from the iphone.

BANG!!

Matthew Lloyd..Right up there....

I am genuinely suprised at the criticism and anger thrown at Garry Lyon in this thread. But i am not knocking it as we all sit in different seats watching the Demons. I thought the article was actually positive. A wake up call for the future. In the last 2 years we have had 3 players who walked as soon as they could. No other club has had that. So there have been major problems. Garry who was probably presented with most of them last year when Jimmy ASKED him for help is merely warning us all to get our shite together...this season. I have wondered where the club would be today if Garry had declined Jim and not come forward. Bailey was a unanimous 5-0 vote for the job in 2007 as i recall, it wasn't just Garry's call. So i have no qualms towards him. We have had some negative press from Garry over the years because we have made bad mistakes. Dean Bailey was doing ok until after 2010 QB. G Lyon was always going to be in the media, i remember seeng the "Junior Supporters Club" on Ch7 on saturday morning at 6.30 hosted by a very young G Lyon in 1986 as i got home from a big night of clubbing. He was also a dam fine Captain of our club, who i am sure wants to rid the club of factions which have always retarded us. So yes, i see the article as positive. And i am happy with the appointment of Neeld & Co...

sorry but who is that???And yes a definite candidate, even it is/was "one of our boys"...

How often did a certain ex midfielder go in to fight for his mates?? Don't think i ever saw it happen. Playing a game with the Flu is of course the other extreme. Could be a VASTLY different side this year.

Carlton : is there a more corrupt organization within the Western World? For them to go free for the 2007 Kruezer Cup just galvinizes my absolute disdain & Anger. I refuse to eat in Carlton. The Filth : History dictates that i do. Most happy to comply. Essendrug :2000. Surviving Windy Hill. Essendrug have an arrogance all their own. Hate & Loath Adelaide : They represent South Australia. Enough said Meth Coast : Do what they want & get away with it. Benny's Doco is enough! Ninthmond : In the 70's they were Tattoos and no teeth, and they won every saturday night on the replay. Nightmares. The Shockers : theme Song. The worst durge. Port Adelaide : Who? Should never have been admitted to the AFL. Simply not big enough. Will always be on the Dole. Thanks Wayne Jackson. Whorethorn : self explanatory. No other side has beaten us up since 1971 like these hideous bastards The Swannettes : Dunkley & Barry Hall GF Appearances. Totally AFL contrived Footscray : 1954..how dare they. Could have been 7 in a row!! Nought Melbourne : there is room for only one Melbourne in Melbourne The Aints : My brother defected, i still ask him why. The Handbags : One Town One Stadium. Yes i am jealous Brisbane Bears : Feeding off the dead carcus of Fitzroy amid laughter. I remember the handover press conference GW$ : A Tax dodge GC $un$ : irrelevent & totally unnecessary I Hate all of the MFC opponents for the above reasons. Nothing will change.

Yes. Sticking up for team mates. Haven't seen enough of that in the last decade. Mongrel against top sides, now that would be nice. Very interesting year for Coach Neeld, this is where it starts 2013. Ball is in his court. Instill an attitude of no compromise...

Well said LG. I thought the same thing when i read it. G Lyon is not a messiah of the MFC, but he is no fool either.

G Lyon didn't stab Dean Bailey in the back Hird style, please. Dean was given the job and ultimately failed because he was not strong enough. Dean rolled over unhappily. But it was his doing. Matty Knights got White Anted in the media BY THE MAN WHO TOOK HIS JOB!! The reason i want Hird to fail. G Lyon is not in that category. Not even close.

Look Jared walked the second the door was available. Garry is right, i have no problem with him saying it. It was Jim Stynes who asked for his help 2 summers ago. Without that invitation he would not have intervened. It is time the club got stronger so these articles are not even considered let alone written.

I think what G Lyon wrote in todays paper is Absolutely Spot On...we have all witnessed the last 7 seasons. The MFC have made some shocking decisions and should not hide from it. Those taking pot shots at Garry. Pathetic form. Shameful.

Awesome. Almost a full list to choose from. No excuses this year. Now that Moloney has walked there is hope for Colin Sylvia. Bring on Round 1 Effort & Intensity every week

Any injuries??

Effort and intensity should be the standards set in 2013. There is no excuse for not showing both traits in 2 hours regardless of experience or cattle on the ground. Last night after a pre season from hell Essendon stuck together and played for each other. It wasn't a great game, but once they hit the front they were not going to get beaten. 4 points is 4 points. After our summer of hell is the team of the Red & Blue going to play for each other with effort & intensity (not just for one quarter) or are they going to be a shambles like last year and always talk about next week. We can beat Essendon. We know that. Interesting times.

That was just so bad. I only made it through 2 minutes. Play footy guys.

Essendrug are winning because of intensity. No reason why we cannot compete at that level No excuse at all.

Yes you are right, I know the newspaper just feed us a generic "Happy" Answer. But for the $$$ we invest i think we all deserve better.....Victorian football has been raped unless you follow The Filth Hand Bags or the Whoreks... It puts me in a mean mood!!

yes that would be worth a few $100

Wish Alan Johnson was still playing for us today, his style could still cut it in the modern game

Focus on Rounds 1-2. It equates to 8 points rather than 4 points and a flogging. Read between whatever lines you want.

Why would the Club be happy with an Essendrug Flogging?It is no wonder this club wallows in self pity with attitudes like this. If the MFC get flogged by Essendrug i will be most pi$$ed off.

After just reading the Back Page of The HUN today i am extremely concerned about the Swans Salary Template. It is becoming clear that the AFL prefer the Premiership to leave Victoria each year. If Vlad is correct in saying that all the clubs "signed off" on this deal 5 years ago then our CEO needs to let the membsrs have a full explanation. This coupled with GW$ & GC $un$ makes it almost fanciful the MFC can ever rise. The Swans have 6 veterans on their list and this 9.8% living bonus. Personally i am sick of all 18 Presidents agreeing bullshite. I do not believe it.
