  1. Can be no one else!!!
  2. G Lyon is a grumpy old bugger on radio, but he could play footy when it was a tough game. A deadly beautiful kick, he could pick up the ball one handed and keep running. Imagine if todays players could achieve that!!!
  3. The Walrus was Paul...
  4. If Whorethorn sodomize us next Saturday then i will agree totally i want to see the Club respond, or are the wounds from the Preliminary Final are too deep...??
  5. Yes, produce copy. I hope it is more than just that, we will find out in the next week or so
  6. Interesting article written by Max But my only concern is that he had to say it 2 weeks after the club had a โ€œsit down tell all truthโ€ session to reset the mind i know people inside the club care, but how much do they care? not enough i say. We cannot waste this year, we cannot write it off, we need to fight against the odds, again and again. Last September told us we are not up to it, 7 months later we are still questioning that. Back to the Bare Bones Coach, work from the bottom up this week fight for your job, if you really want it.
  7. Yes it is amazing how many people on here truly believe this diabolical situation we find ourselves in, will just โ€œturn aroundโ€ last years model has been torn open and fully pulled apart by our opponents. When i saw Lewis and Jones lineup on the wings of the MCG a few weeks ago i realized our Coach was in a world of pain...
  8. Speed on the Wings...who can kick to a moving target...
  9. Leadership and Attitude to relentless hard work is what the MFC have lacked for 55 years. We always fall over after a peak....
  10. โ€œSitting on a Cornflake, waiting for the van to come...โ€
  11. Agreed. At least Frosty had a serious crack last Wednesday
  12. You are all hope here Ron. Are we a well run Club, what is actually going on? Nothing has been said Something is not right, we have been thrashed 3 times on our home ground. Good Clubs donโ€™t let that happen. Our list is average and very unbalanced. Slow and lacking basic skills. Why...?
  13. No idea to be honest. But something is definitely not right for such an epic fall. But it has happened almost regularly in the last 5 decades. We cannot sustain a winning culture...
  14. Injuries have hit our list hard because Goodwinโ€™s Game style is too physically taxing to play it every week. Thus i wait to see foot skills improve before I believe he can turn this around
  15. Roos doesnโ€™t need Goodwin. He did his job. He gave us 3 years which is what he agreed to. It was never enough, i knew that at the time, but it was either that or nothing. I was always suprised Ratten was not recruited as the successor to Roos, maybe he was and turned it down. Remember back then Ratts had just lost a son. But handing over the job to a rookie was highly risky, for reasons we are seeing unfold. I like Simon, but just watching his last 2 vids to Members, he has a hint of desperation in his voice, but this is not a new problem, it started back in September in the most important game we had played in 18 years. Goodwin was completely murdered that day, but he shrugged it off as a bad day. Well it was far from that to me, it was a stark reality check that is yet to be addressed
  16. Doesnโ€™t look like anything has changed since last September to my eyes. We have been opened up and exposed and i donโ€™t think Goodwin knows what to do about it. Hope i am wrong, but i have grave doubts simply because an alternative would have been worked on during preseason if there was one
  17. He is still in Melbourne, hence why i wish he was still part time at least with the MFC
  18. Our skill level with the ball has been overlooked for years. It is Schoolyard standard compare to what other clubs produce.
  19. See this is where i disagree, because part of the midfields job is to get the ball out IN A WAY THAT CAN BE USED. The Skill of our midfield has been overrated by a long way no doubt about it. Our foot skills are appalling compared to other clubs this is why i say our players work hard to an MFC standard, that is way below the benchmark of many clubs
  20. Are they really trying their guts out? Or just trying their guts out to a MFC standard? We donโ€™t work hard enough as a club, never have
  21. Agreed. Anzac Day was just swamped this year.
  22. Noughts forward line is as useless as ours...
  23. Ch7 are not always right lets hear some more confirmation before we close the discussion
