Sir Why You Little

The fact is though that the Captain Frank Grimes butchers far too many of his kicks. That is the bottom line. Yes he is a great kid with leadership qualities having heard him interviewed many times. But on the ground his disposal efficiency is very average thus far. Those who put him in an elite category are hoping it happens.

Northey got the team fired halfway through his second year in 87 we were 5-9 before beating Geelong at Waverley, then it rolled.

Aah yes the Shane Woewodin Port. The only time i bought off a telephone call. I think he was gone within a month!! Still got it somewhere. Thanks for the reminder....

let's hope you're right. The Aged need to be put in their place if you are.

i don't. But it would be far more difficult for an outsider to see Dank being directly involved with the MFC than if they were inside the building.

correct. What we show this year must look good. We need a selling point.

Yes we all concur with that. But if this informant saw Dank at or near AAMI late last year are they still employed by the club. That's what we need to know.

exactly, so who is still in her ear about it?Or has she just fabricated it to keep stirring the pot? The AAMI Precinct is shared by more than the MFC, so if Dank was "seen" there why is it automatically to work for us? Don needs to kill it off this week imo

ok, so why has the MFC been mentioned though Jack, is it just too easy?Highly respect your legal opinions btw.

when have the leaks stopped?The same leaks last year may well still be there. How do we know? Why did Mclardy change tact so quickly when 2 weeks earlier it was Courtroom or bust? A deal was struck. Was that in the clubs best interest long term or just the present board? I like Don, but i am sorry something stills smells about all this. It was "finished" too quickly after 8 months of muckraking. A couple of A4 statements to the members i think was a little thin considering the shite we all endured. I am happy to be convinced otherwise, but my intuition says otherwise right now.

Spot on rjay...i don't care who it is. We cannot go through another smear campaign. This week i expect some action. Quash it or sort it.

last years GF was a classic. Pure arm wrestle. I dream of the day Checker Hughes Demons play that way again. Solid contests on every line. In the words of "Molly" Do yourself a favour & watch it.

Yes you are right. In a courtroom they could have been named & shamed. Very big opportunity missed there by the present board. I think it is time for Mclardy to come clean this week, otherwise those little leaks will get wider. They always do. Wilson has sniffed out something here & she would be loving it.

i didn't limit it to just the players. That is my point. By accepting the AFL's sham certain people are still where they are. Who it is i do not know? But Wilson's source back in last July could still be employed by the club and in turn is paid a wage through we members...

IF there is a rat still leaking negative slurs to Wilson & i repeat IF then we the financial members must demand they are flushed. This is one reason why i was disappointed that we did not go to court to fight & clean out all the disagreements. Are we back to "Business as Usual" after a rollover for not tanking? Now Wilson may be still digging because most of her disgusting predictions did not materialize, but whatever it is i do not like the sound of it. Somebody within is still in contact.

i agree with you there. If this is another "rebuild" it has to be done on the run. Hiding under the radar is not an option anymore. Carlton are waiting in the wings to take over our change room if the MFC does not turn this situation around. But i do not believe that it was all over 5 years ago. Not yet anyway.

i think we all know that. Do you think Neeld & Craig are on the right path? What went on before was not their doing.

so what is your solution?

soon as the ball bounces mate.

As long as Neeld can grow his coaching this year he will be fine. Way to early to even think of change.

It's the kids i worry about. The kids who don't want to go to the footy because the Demons suck. Yesterday is a practise game, yes. But try telling that to a kid who is going to cop it on monday. Round 1 is very important...so is Round 2...

I fully understand where Carlton and other clubs are at...That is their own choice. You can agree with whom ever you like, but please do not tell me i do not understand, i have been watching the MFC slowly unravel itself for decades.

Not at all....I am sure many incentives could then be implemented...The way it is now is that the clubs are locked in. If the list is underperforming they still get top $$$ Do not agree with it, never will...actually makes it harder for clubs to rise. Our performances since 2007 are a fine example of such.

Correct thankyou.

To anyone who was at the game...What was the GC list like today? Were they at full strength? Or is that still too hard to work out as they are only 3 years old?
