Sir Why You Little

Do you not learn? We went down that road 10 years ago and it ripped the heart out of the club. WINNING is the object of game we are in..

Yes i saw that. Will fill it in after lunch. I need to prepare....

Fear of Failure, not being ready, couldn’t handle the pressure...Why? Preparation not up to standard... Lack of Leadership....

Where was that killer attitude in Round 23 2017...?

Jones not being on the list is only one of many problems. But he no longer has any pace, so yes i do not want to see him playing next year. He wants at least 2 more years. So how strong is the Club after the disaster of 2019???

Jones can teach the young kids how to lose with dignity.... that is all he knows...

I would have moved him on at the end of 2017 at the very latest. So for him to be still playing on a Wing in 2019 is ridiculous So yes would be my answer. This year has been an absolute dogs breakfast disaster and i expect big changes after Round 23 or i will not be financially involved in 2020 I have to make a stand....

It’s so easy to see isn’t it. The only Club who doesn’t get it is us. We made Nathan Jones a September Video in 2017 and it was released before the Finals had been made!!! Stand Up Comedy....

The MFC Attitude is what i am talking about. What is it now that “The Help” has been and gone? are we any stronger or has nothing changed? This Club has been starved a lot longer than 5-6 years. It’s all part of our history.

That’s the way The MFC has operated since 1965 Exactly why Leadership deficiency is always our number 1 problem

I have said we have held onto players too long over 40-50 years. You have mentioned 5-6 years. I am waiting to see how strong the Board is NOW, after PJ and Roos have left and Bartlett is standing alone...

I am more worried about Attitude and long term injuries than age, at this stage. But i will be disappointed if Jones, AVB are playing next year Stretch is a great trainer but is very average on match day Omac has got 8 weeks to prove himself... The rest i need to think about...

But they are top up Players, I am talking more “Melbourne” Players who need to go...

Yes i know. But this Club has long form at changing over the list, the wrong way. We need to replace about 5-6 players at years end. The right players need to be moved on, sentiment must not be a factor

I have followed this Club a lot longer than 5-6 years....

Leadership Qualities until we get these qualities into most of our playing group, nothing will change.

Let us see how strong the Board and Club really is.... This will give us a very good indication.

Totally agree. Seeing Jones line up on the MCG Wing earlier this year made me very angry. We Members were being treated like fools. How do you exit a player gracefully? ”time to go mate, we love you and welcome you back anytime. But your playing days with us have finished....” We have to be tough and fair. Lewis has 4 Flags under his belt to pass on knowledge, Jones has none of that sadly, but life is a tough journey

We have to get over just holding the spirit of the club together. That is one of our major problems Junior was a great servant, but his time was up as a major contributor I want sustained success at the top of the ladder, then we celebrate great careers, as we did decades ago under Norm’s reign.

Well said Chazz i too am waiting for the elusive 13th Whether Jones plays 300 games is of small interest. I would have retired him after 2016 if it was up to me. We always keep our older players too long (one of the many MFC problems) our older players have achieved what???

Exactly. Why did Hogan bring it up? What research did Morris do before writing anything or did he just quote verbatim his source?? Hard hitting Wilson....

Oh give it a rest ... how many tackles were laid last weekend? Lack of Leadership is where we are

Remains to be seen DD, Perth is a long long way away....

Got nothing to do with my pound of flesh. I am sick to death of seeing my club being treated with disdain, by players who don’t learn and listen A Club that appoints Leaders who have no idea how to lead... This is why we are now 4-10 and 16th on the ladder. That is all i care about

Exactly right. An MFC Template, that can deal with changing players. Injuries are always 2 minutes away....they are not new
