  1. Over Summer i said 8th spot...We can do better than that, but it all depends on fatigue later in the year. Listening to Bailey's Press conferences he Respects these players so i wouldn't discount anything yet from this year. We may have a losing streak later in the season, but it is not Mandatory as some here suggest. B)
  2. Get Martin Flanagan to write or edit it & i would buy it for sure. I wonder if Matty Knights is a dart board from the Bombers Mag yet?? That was the worst Essendon effort i have ever seen last sunday....Fantastic Entertainment!! B)
  3. 3 game packages are a brilliant idea-not everybody can go to the footy each week Even better if you can choose the 3 games yourself. It's all money to the club and it all helps. B)
  4. Allen Jakovich went right off that day-kicked 11 in three quarters. The '87 Elimination i shall never forget.
  5. Ray Stevens did that classic single in the '70's "The Streak" Top Laugh!!!
  6. Yes read that today over my lunch coffee, and realized how this club has CHANGED SO MUCH for the Better since Stynes, Connolly & Schwab took the wheel. It is incredible-at this rate sponsors are going to have to fight each other to represent themselves on our jumper and ground. That's the way it should be. We do represent this cities name, a fact too long forgotten. Beautifully written as always Martin, thanks. B)
  7. Ricky's sister karen made enquiries on how to become an interstate member this morning via facebook-so maybe she can help him stay a demon!!
  8. Fine words from Trapper-I Hope TJ is always welcomed back to the MFC in future years. He obviously still loves the place, and understands why he was traded. Good on ya TJ B)
  9. A good lesson for us all this thread...Things can & Do change Quickly...We the supporters & Members have to trust the people running the ship 99% of the time..Back them. 2008-2009 were really hard tough years for everyone (Some weeks i didn't go because i didn't want to make myself feel Flat all week_it was that bad) It was so good to hear the crowd pumped last saturday night B)
  10. You could well be right HT. If i had taken the odds on Melbourne over the last 4 weeks i could have retired, sadly i didn't!!!
  11. I hope you are dead right mate, but the bottom line is we have played 5 in a row at the MCG and have not won away from their since 2007, so until the final siren blasts and we are in front i will not have us as favorites when playing away-not yet anyway.
  12. We are on the right road, with still a long way to Travel-But this time the beast is tuned up with a full tank of Petrol. B) Keep Aiming to the top Demons. Win some away games to compliment the Hard work we do at home.
  13. I haven't been to Etihad since Bruce did the collar bone (apart from AC/DC!!) Does anyone know the procedure now for an MCC Member if i just roll up to the ground??
  14. Just proves my theory that these online betting agencies are run and used by cowboys. We havent won a game away from the MCG for 3 years!!!! How can we be the Favorite-Its absurd.
  15. We are not favorites at Etihad Stadium-That is a fact. We gotta earn that one-The Punters are pushing their luck if they think otherwise
  16. The one year contract has sparked him up i bet-Might turn out to be a very shrewd piece of business from last summer.
  17. Just think how competitive it is now during the week-Players don't want to lose their spot, others are Busting an absolute Gut to get in. We haven't had this situation for years. It's the way Hawthorn worked during there 20 year Finals Run-(Some players played over 100 games in the Reserves before getting a game) Now i know times have changed, but still i don't want to see any player not earn their spot in the ones. All the Great sides had settled lines.
  18. Well said GV...If someone comes knocking on the Front door and says "I want to play for you guys (again). Why slam the door, when you know the guy has talent. At least hear him out and consider the offer. If this rumour turns out to be true, i am rapt that players are looking to us as a Good club to come to. I do not want the MFC to become Aloof or arrogant in its business dealings ever.
  19. Why Drop a Player from our back six after we have just Beaten the previously undefeated Bear by 8 Goals 2. Rivers is not an automatic Best 22 player anymore-Gotta fight for the spot each week. Good way to Demand Excellence.
  20. I don't care if he comes back to the MFC or not to be honest, but if he does then it should be totally on our terms. I don't dislike Scott for going home-I would always want to return to Victoria if i had to leave for work, & i think Scott made sure we got a decent trade, so i can live with that. Scott Thompson playing with a bunch of young guns on the MCG might just fire him up for a few years. Being a crow would be very Regimented i bet-They're are really stuffed at the minute.
  21. wonder how many will sign up this week after the Bears Game? I hope the Club organize the ring around-would be hard to say no if the MFC rang your house at the moment & said "Come on Pay up for Jimmy"
  22. You are right-But our coaches deserve credit for fast tracking & enhancing that self motivation. Lets not Forget Bohdan, our fitness guy-who has copped the odd Beating on Here....Credit where credit is due. B)
  23. If he is going to play the twilight of his career for melbourne that is where he will end up. He is a good kick. i don't think we require him further up the ground.
  24. With Scully & Trengove arrival Beamer & Nate Jones will both become better players. They will all feed off each other. Any wonder Jamar is Burning??? We Have 4 Guns in the middle now-all working together. Well done to the coaching & Fitness staff for getting Trengove & Scully ready and Battle hardened so quickly. Beamer can now be creative-he would be loving it. As would Jonesy-who for mine was BOG last saturday.
  25. That means we could pick him up rather cheaply-worth considering, but do we have room? Could be a good Teacher for Jack Watts-another good solid body in the goal square. Regardless of what happens i like it that players are wanting to come to Melbourne. We must choose our recruits very carefully. Who is Best suited to winning games & for how long can they play.
