Sir Why You Little

what happened behind the office door i cannot comment O.D but on the outside it was fast & clean. Stynes was right btw it couldn't wait. The interest payment was mounting. PG's biggest problem was that he distanced the average supporter...Jim bought them back. Got the blood pumping... Victories are needed now. Strength comes from winning

working in the scoreboard is another avenue if you haven't already done it Pates. Tough job that one. Quick turn around. Next...

This is definately not a Pantomine. Like i have said before, Vlad could have stopped this at any time if HE had wanted to. He decided to let it roll. He may have said "Go" from the UK. it is not really important. But Andrew is number one. Don't kid yourselves. The AFL findings will come down with his blessing i have no doubt. If they don't the competition is in serious trouble.

that is how i read it. And i consider Paul to be a good person but the MFC job needed more of his time than he was prepared to commit. Paul was man enough to know that when Stynes made his move.

Forward thinking please BBP chin up.....

That is exactly what PG was saying. The MFC was another activity he was involved in, one of many. AFL needs more committment than that. That said the PG Board had some good ideas, but they never finished anything...Plans were drawn up...

i felt no consolation of joy after the '87 Preliminary Final sitting next to the Hawthorn Cheersquad van in the Waverley carpark waiting to get out. Losing is losing. When the MFC shakes off this chain it will be time for others to wear it. Those far more deserving.

^^^ This. Honourable losses suck. Just ask the Swiss Tennis Player from last night. We must learn to never accept losing. Why do you think a Statue of Norm Smith now stands outside Gate 2. Norm expected to win. Its why Whorethorn have won 10 Flags or been fighting deep into September since 1971. An honourable loss to me is a game that should have been won. We were in the hunt but didn't succeed.

"Hello World...Pants Off". That is what will happen.

i remember this quote Ben..But the reality will be that Vlad & the commission must end up in agreement otherwise one must go. Will Vlad resign over an issue that was started while he was AWOL?....i doubt it very much. It will be similar if CS is forced into resignation. The Board must follow as it was them who negotiated his last contract well after the 2008-09 seasons.

Both Demetrio & the Commission have to be in agreement for this issue to be finished. Which is why other clubs are still worried. The MFC are viewed as the Test Case.

Gardner wanted to make the Demons "The Melbourne Inc. " there was some merit in his vision, but it also made it less of a club. Jimmy as a champion of the game and through his work with REACH realized that without the club there is no business. The renovations continue...

I remember going to windy hill. They haven't improved. Victory is a must against Essendon.

Hahahahaha!! That's all i can say right now. What a magnificent Motley Crew....

No. Let's get things right now shall we. I am so over 5 year plans. Let's make 2013 count.

i remember it well. My Birthday weekend. I watched it on telly only because i had got home from clubbing at about 9 in the morning. Topped of a great long weekend.

it's been a long time since Allen Jakovich put Bums on seats. Jeff Farmer was a Freak yes, but Jako was a classic Full Forward.

Yep. Which we just may have with a Clark/Dawes combination.

To Quote the Fat Controller himself.."I think he could be in a bit of strife.."

i totally agree, which is one reason i applaud the cashflow doubling going through the club in the last 6 years. That is a fine achievement. WINNING games is what kids want. They don't care about draft picks. That is the lesson i hope the MFC has learnt. That means all of us.

i am talking about Melbourne people. Club & supporters. It is we who must ensure the club prospers. The rest of the AFL community couldn't give a dam whether we live or die. We are not disagreeing.

If there is ever a Knickleback song played as our anthem i will forever stay at home. Sorry but they really suck.

The Microscope will be on Hird this year & so it should. The way he was appointed along with Thompson was disgraceful in terms of Matthew Knights. But that is Essendon to a tee. The way that team went about putting the MFC into hospital beds on GF day 2000 is the same, but in the same breath WE the MFC should have expected exactly what we got. It is WE who must toughen the f$&@k up. It is not going to get easier.

The MFC is up against AFL Regulation 19 (A5) Whatever spin or embellishment the journalists wish to add to it are not of any real importance. The Media must sell itself. The law must administer.

Nobody gives a dam about the MFC except MFC people. Why should they? To an outsider the club is an abject failure. The only people who will change this percetion will come from within. Does the club have that strength on & off the grass?
