  1. We have to keep it out of their Forward Line. First use of the ball is critical. Hopefully Rivers and Sparrow are ready. They both look ripping fit
  2. The Midfield takes supremacy and those tall forwards should have a quiet night. Games can change, but I wouldn’t be changing the back line too much But of course Once the game starts, all plans could thrown in the bin!!
  3. He looks a dead ringer of Uncle Byron now
  4. But we were exactly the same when The Reverend was Coaching us. The Dogs have always lacked 1-2 Key Players as Melbourne did under both Northey and ND. I think Beveridge has done a pretty solid job. Let’s watch Lyon and Clarkson coach Ordinary Players and see how well they adapt
  5. 4 on the Bench + Sub Schache could be a very useful weapon in a Second Half, coming on as a Fresh Player. As long as he is Hungry for action. We threw him a lifeline…
  6. Love Kimi’s work. A true individual and a superb driver
  7. Charles is a great man. He will relish the new wing structure
  8. Yes indeed they did. Hooker Harrison…Say no more… the eternal Filth…
  9. I have no problem with Morris being a Journalist, but i do have a problem with him gaining another on air position. In my opinion he burnt that one
  10. I knew he would end up on SEN…
  11. Crucial for the MCG In the 70’s the wingmen of both sides were so important and we seem to have realized again what an attacking asset they are
  12. Oh dear. I need to sit down watching that. I’ve got one. You can feel the moment Luke Darcy’s Heart starts to break It’s truly glorious…
  13. The Filth became Snipers because no one knew who they were…
  14. Did we sell Memberships last week at Casey? Any idea of numbers?
  15. He should be a very good player. 8 years is a very serious offer, although so was Kurt Tippett!! Pop Corn?
  16. The AFL will love it. The Swans are not allowed to bottom out. They need Another long Contract as Buddy looked totally gone in the GF
  17. Yes, too many ā€œalmostā€ Leaders can make things worse, different opinions carrying the same weight. heppell is probably a really nice guy, and i am sure he is doing his best, but i have NEVER seen him lead Essendrug to a close victory. Both Max and Jack have done that at times, in completely different ways
  18. Fair enough, but i still think it is the exception. Leadership qualities are part of DNA (30% Leaders to 70% Followers is the basic number) in Society A Strong Leader needs to Lead without compromise. Players can always challenge a leader, that is fine. A great leader should expect that, it is a Team game. To me Multiple leaders causes division and i have always wanted to discuss that with Roosy, to hear his side of the coin
  19. I really worried for those 2 Boys at the time. Players 10 years older were under their leadership Just imagine now, if Jake Bowey had been named Captain It must never happen again, nor even considered an option
  20. Absolutely To name 2 ā€œBabiesā€ as Co Captain’s was showing me that the entire MFC had no Leadership at the time. I feared for the Clubs survival at that time. The last 10 years have shown us how to do it right. There should be a Statue of Peter Jackson erected next to RDB, without his common sense and experience I doubt we would be here today. He had the Place functioning correctly within weeks of taking over
  21. Such a bizarre ruling by the VFL to force players to change numbers Disgraceful to disrupt a team like that Pure Filth ā€˜58
  22. Good on him, to kick 5 in the 2’s is what he must do every week (1-2 goals a Quarter) His chance will come. As long as he is Hungry. is he worth playing against the Dogs? Just imagine if both Hunter and Schache played well in Round 1 Beveridge’s Press Conference would be pure gold . Schache can play, it’s all upstairs for him
  23. Leadership Groups are the biggest waste of time in the modern game. Max is the Captain (C) Jack is the Vice Captain (VC) That is all that is needed. Leadership groups dilute the role of the Captain, usually from Teams that have bog ordinary players and they cannot decide who should front the Media on a weekly basis. Remember when we had 2 Captains… 2 careers ruined….
  24. Sustained success will bring Crowds. The Flag in ā€˜21 is huge, but we need more September Success to pull big crowds regularly Patience Grasshoppers
