  1. Tracc has to become more accurate in front of goal. I thought his 2018 was pretty good, but for his goalkicking
  2. I can see where you made the wrong assumptions innocently. It was a long time ago...
  3. Colin you mentioned Ballarat and NYE in the same sentence. Here we have your major problem!!
  4. We should aim to improve each year, if we wish to be respected as THE Melbourne Football Club We must challenge for that Cup next year. Top 4 must be the First Hurdle... The Crowds will come We represent a City
  5. Sorry, but all of the above are awful
  6. That was mooted by Bill Gates, he did very well out of Y2K!!!
  7. That was a good NYE for me Summerdaze at the Bowl once the sun came up... Back when the tabs were sociable!!!
  8. Swoopers first game as coach...
  9. WTF are you on about The MFC home jumper looks awesome Why do we have to change everything every year??? GO AWAY....

  11. Agreed. He tells me stats of no interest. I don’t care how much research he has done. Call the game as you see it. Nothing more Mike Williamson was my favourite footy commentator, he called the game with the exact amount of excitement and nothing more.
  12. Maybe between Monday and Thursday?
  13. He is annoying all the time. Should have reired at least 2 years ago
  14. Yes Kelty has quietly been involved in the AFL for years....
  15. Gill “The AFL needs a strong Essendrug” This draw was always coming...
  16. I haven’t walked away from anything. Channel 7 made some very bad calls in 2017 how much more clearer can i be?? i think you just want to argue, this conversation has gone on all year and i have basically said the same things next season we have Thursday nights regularly. That is a channel 7 call... After dinner the footy is on ch 7 can sell ads for another night Tuesday is the only day not represented in the 2019 AFL Draw at all. A far cry from Saturdays at 2.10 pm when 6 games got under way
  17. Live Sport is the last big ticket FTA TV has left, the used to have movies and Drama Series as well, but that is no more. Netflix and HBO have those now. So sport is critical to FTA. Foxtel is about 30% Audience Subscription at this point. Motorsport is now almost all Foxtel and it has lost a lot of it’s audience, apart from Bathurst. The AFL must stay on FTA...
  18. If you don’t want to believe that a TV Network still has some pull with live sport, then you are just wrong. They do, particulaiarly when the price they have paid is nearly 7 figures over 5 years. The Television era began in 1965, just as we fell over Generations have watched certain teams win finals and flags on the TV. But we missed all that and it has impacted the club over time, whether you want to believe it or not. Carlscum have 16 Cups, many of them since 1968, Ch7 (and the AFL) were banking on a Carlscum improvement, it completely backfired. So we were stuck with Rubbish on Friday nights ad nauseum. What made it worse was that St. Kilda were just as bad, now i have no idea why the Aints got given so much, but i do know about Carlscum. I doubt the same mistakes will be made again, Friday night Commercial spots can cover the cost of a whole week in TV Land. People turning off at halftime is not part of the deal
  19. Memos get past around TV Stations from time to time. People know each other. Some of them got passed on to me. And yes, Channel 7 has a big say in what is shown where. They overpaid to get the rights. Not a 100% say, but a big say. In 2018 they got it wrong in many ways and it cost them a lot of money ? but like Essendrug, when Carlscum get their act together, they will be given an armchair ride. We, the MFC will have to work very hard to get a strong footing. We haven’t been successful in the TV ? era Carlton have been....
  20. It was a shocking decision that was ammended. You make out like i agreed with it. I was just passing on memos that were shown to me early last year. The AFL lost a lot of revenue last year during the season, they were lucky the crowds returned in September.
  21. Not a bad draw at all, apart from the NT debacle still being played out. F$&@“ Being shunted down to the Cattery again is just ridiculous, but Jeelong get what they want. It’s a tough draw, why not. We want to be a Power side, we EXPECT to beat anyone. The days of searching for the soft option must be gone. I guess Coach Goodwin starts serious work today....
  22. Could be an absolute bargain....
  23. Yep. Keep the number on the field. The memories are closer that way....
  24. I just hope it was quick and Col had little time to realize..... One thing i do know aabout Col. He spent many hours in Hospitals making young kids smile. He had his problems, but he was loved by so many supporters, i have noticed today. So many photos of that big smile with different people on the internet today
