  1. Good point. But it was more the exterior I noticed this time!
  2. I feel good about tomorrow night. The team will have a red hot go....
  3. Snr. The 1989 Grand Final all that needs to be said
  4. Will be fascinating to see how Goodwin prepares for this tough assignment. Win and we are right back in the mix. Above the shoulders Demons
  5. You are aware that we did break away from the MCC before RN?
  6. Where is there any evidence of the MCC not wanting to be part of the future?? Don’t make things up to suit your agenda. Neither the Club or the MCC have said anything is off the table yet, and i believe Pert when he says this is a long term project, because it is. As i said earlier, we have already cut ties with the MCC once before and it was a disaster, ultimately leading up to the dreaded 1996 Merger options i don’t want to go through ANY of that ever again...
  7. I have to Disagree Rusty. We do need City Presence, why because we didn’t grow from a suburb (or patch) we are different to the other 17 clubs. We grew from from a Stadium ? that was next to inner Melbourne. We walked away from it once before 1981 i think it was, and became completely lost. The ties between the MCC and the MFC must remain strong and tight, otherwise we will slowly die.
  8. A credit to all Melbourne Faithful We who have suffered more humiliation than most, still believe in that almighty Demon. 70,000 is attainable as long as winning becomes a standard requirement, regardless of ladder position
  9. Whorethorn got 14,000 to The ‘G today wow what a bunch of soft [censored]. There must be thousands of Members at that club, who are in fact inanimate objects. Should have stayed at Glenferrie Oval
  10. Agreed. I hope training is completely different this week. Ball skills (moving and stand still) and goal kicking, every player involved.
  11. The Coaches have got a long serious week. This is when they earn their big pay packets. The team is “close” to getting it right. We possess the ball so much. That is the hard part. “Connection” is actually the right word. We have a dodgy connection at present. It’s there but not reliable. It can be fixed, but it will be a long and intense week if it is. Winning next week over there would be huge.
  12. Jeelong have their own rules along with their own Stadium ”Nothing to see here...” they are almost on a par with Essendrug in the hated stakes, for different reasons. Although you do wonder what Thompson got up to whilst down the Highway...
  13. No reason why GW$ cannot be beaten by the MFC in a few weeks time on the ‘G. They have never liked it. We must be ready though
  14. Casey is in the middle of Nowhere if we locate out there we will die WE NEED CITY PRESENCE PJ said it. I have thought it for years. We have NEVER used our name correctly. We hold a great Ace, but have never played it.
  15. Very close next door neighbors. I know where Essendrug Airport is, my Dad used to fly out of there weekly when i was a young kid
  16. No, they are part of the Essendrug Airport precinct i think you will find. Not too far from where they were We also must not stray too far from the MCG and the CBD. “We are Melbourne”
  17. Essendrug have moved to Essendrug Airport, which is part of Essendrug last time i looked. We must grow a City Presence in the CBD of Melbourne, with Training facilities close to that proximity We have never grown it properly through Board incompetence and just lacking drive. Pert i hope can make a difference
  18. Amazing that some are putting up the White Flag (so that we improve for 2020!!) We of all clubs know the consequences of that thinking. We have had 2 lucky close wins to build some belief and resilience. We need to go into every game believing we can win, because of hard work. Yesterday was garbage, BUT The boys did not give up and they were rewarded with a Win. Our skills are well down, why i cannot tell, but i do feel the team will click very soon if they still believe in each other. Even if we finish 8th it is still valuable experience for a club that has failed so often. The last 40 seconds of yesterday’s game just might be the turning point for a run of wins against good teams.
  19. Said it last week and yesterday during the game. This side will click soon and get back its Mojo we won’t be 3-9 at the bye next week in Perth will be close. Redemption time i hope, if this club has any inner strength
