  1. Jackovich was never a Half Forward, always closer to goal-a true Freak he was. Loved him Danny HUghes at Full Back-wish we had him now. Tough and would kick out to almost the center quite often.
  2. I dont have to state anything with great Authority, it's all their in front of all of us to see. Our Club is an absolute Cot Case at present compared to the rest of the AFL. I am not Blaming Individuals but as a member i think its reasnoable to ask questions as to why it all happened. Maybe Joe Gutnick mneeded another Term. Who Knows in hindsight. But Christ it couldn't have been worse. The whole china thing was a farce. In time maybe but the old "backyard" needed to be sorted first. Let me ask you something...what positive things did the last board achieve before they left in silence..i am trying to think of some. We went backwards in a hurry.
  3. How Good is this Kid? I have not seen him play. Bolting Home to watch Fremantle play is not high on my "to do" List. Never will be! Is He Really worth all the Fuss?
  4. Broady's Tragedy did not happen on the Football Field. It was a completely separate incident. Could have happened to any of us. I miss the Fire Engine as we all do but The 87 Prelim will always for me be the no 1 Football Tragedy..
  5. Ha Ha that's a Beauty "Sorry Dear I couldn't get you that i had to Donate more Money to The MFC-Priorities my Dear" Love ya work!!!!
  6. I know there record is not too bad, But they travel such a small amount any win puts the ratio up by about 5% !! Melbourne on the other hand at this point in time Travel appallingly. I remember when the interstate sides first came in to the comp. We travelled pretty well. John Northey got us pumped pretty well
  7. A very Difficult Question when i am not part of the Meetings and Business Deals to answer. All i do know is the club has a debt that seems to grow everytime i look at it. Over paid Ageing players Yze should have been delisted after 2007 along with Nietz (or at least should have annointed and had a transition period with a new Captain). Basically the whole club needs to be more accountable top to bottom. Our Deal with the MCC has always been terrible since the Eighties. This is the First Big Job i hope Jimma addresses.
  8. 14 Votes!! My you are genorous i would predict no more than half that=7 Votes Total
  9. - We travel well - We have more premierships and stopped your run of 5 straight flags These Two Points re Collingwood make me Laugh........How can they be sure they travel well when they don't go anywhere and Collingwood stopped our run of SIX (6) Flags-count them Thru mostly deeds of thuggery as they were well known in those days of one umpire. Six of our Flags were won against your mob and lets hope we can win a few more before i am gone!!
  10. I feel exactly the Same about Carlton-They have cheated the system since 1965 (although back then the rules were very fimsy) But But look at the Club now-Full of first Draft Picks!! Rewarded for Cheating. Because of the Cardboard King they now call themselves The "Green" Club!!! Giving Dodgy Jobs to Chris Judd at Visy...Wake up AFL I am really hoping Carlton Fxck up again with the salary Cap. History says they will as that club feeds on Greed ragardless of the consequences. Let us watch carefully........
  11. I Like that Jumper, if we are forced to wear a different jumper. The whole Clash Jumper issue pisses me off as i don't believe it is a major issue. It's just the AFL being Greedy
  12. I have nothing against the Board run by Gardiner & his team, I am sure they worked Long & Hard, but the Results are they made some very bad decisions that have left the club hanging by a thread. God help us if Jim Stynes had not come along. If our debt is continually rising there is only so many donations that can be made. This is my major concern. Cameron Schwab staerts next week, that is a major positive, and when our new journey really starts.
  13. What is the latest news on Brad? He is so needed next year, i hope we can pay him what he deserves..
  14. You may well be correct-But The Bottom line is the Club is a mere shell at the End of the Gardiner Years. Other Clubs have Surged on during that time off field. We have gone Backwards. That is not re inventing History. I love this club & i want it to survive and be strong, but when i read threads such as this i really don't like our chances at all
  15. I Love watching Ryan Okeefe. if he was available at a reasnoable price i hope the club would consider him. This Group would love to learn from a Premiership Player. But yes i think he is just upping his price for the Swannies...
  16. 1987 Prelim will always be no 1 Heartbreak no matter what decade you discuss, but yes it would be good to get that thread Back up and running
  17. Naitinui is a great athlete but he is a long long term project. He would be totally smashed up in the AFL right now-He is long & Lean right now. Jack Watts is in Melbourne at Brighton Grammer (who already wear Red and Blue) so he must be our number one priority. Let me say one thing though. Daniel Rich is a total Gun-I have seen him play for Subiaco via Tape who just won the Flag easily from Swan Districts. Rich is a young Superstar, so if the Dees pickrd him up i wouldn't be too concerned, if only we could get Rich & Watts. Bring on Trade Week!!
  18. Absolutely, They have had a Totaol Clean out since 2004 and backed themselves all the way. The Club is Loaded with Cash and assetts. Next week they are not just in the GF, they are a serious Challenger. I am Tipping a Few sore Geelong Bodies next week. This new team plays very Similiar to the 80's. The MFC should look at the Hawthorn Blue Print very Closely over summer.
  19. I got a letter of acknowledgement last week. Next years stuff is to be sent out in November December.
  20. Its a damn good reason why we haven't had success or so long. If only we could get a Big Athletic CHF that would Help. Ahh Yes Jack Watts is available-Excellent
  21. Yes the Second time was defanitely the 'G against bcoz i was sitting not far from his mum & she was Gutted like everyone. The whole 'G went Silent. I am pretty sure his first Injury was close to the Junction but hey it's a long time ago & i Just get [censored] off thinking about it. Hawthorn are about to start another Dynasty-again. Around that ime both clubs were broke...The MFC still is......
  22. Colin Must play some top line Football in 2009 otherwise i would be asking him to move on. Look at Hawthorn, inin 6 years they are seriously cjhallenging for a Flag, why because they Drmand the Utmost from players. We as a Club must do this. 2009 Shape up or ship out Col. No more late nights out with your Pal Alan Didak please...
  23. Naitanui is years away from being an AFL Player. I watch a game evey week at the ABC, The WAFL is nowhere near the standard we are used to. By the Time Naitanui plays a senior game he will be homesick & be back to Perth. Not worth the Effort sadly as the MFC does not have years to wait. Bring on Jack "Charlie" Watts ............."Should be a good one today sir.Local Boy"
  24. That would be right!! We don't get involved because it costs too much. I can sense a feeling of the dreaded Fitzroy Black Cloud Hanging above our great Club. Well watch out for Walker he is a class act, sad to see him wearing a Froot Loop Jumper it will be!!
  25. As we speak Melbourne are trying to Rekindle the Connection with the MCC. To lose the word Melbourne from our club is just a stupid Niave idea. We are Melbourne, at the moment its all we have.........
