whatwhat say what

who? hogan; got may and sparrow instead bedford; we preferred chandler as a small pressure forward jackson; got jefferson and windsor when he wanted to go home

would love to poach finn callaghan

not necessarily mfc, but i imagine at some point the lure of home and a big contract will bring him back to melbourne the city star in the making

not to mention the fact that his twin brothers will, if they're also talented, likely join him at the dees in future years i note with interest that jeff says those boys have elected NOT to join the gc17 academy

also what people said about the dees 2007-2010

if we finish top 4 this year it'll be four years in a row we're still there, thereabouts

i for one loathe going for a side that has finished top 4 three years in a row for the first time in my lifetime and for the first time the club has done so since the 1960s

the splooging over everything mac andrew does is going to annoy me for the next decade plus

ridiculous assessment for starters, he's got one thing as a coach that lyon and hinkley don't have goodwin has thrown multiple different ideas at the wall to modify our forward structure - i presume you give him zero credit for doing so, seeing as you don't think he's changed things many times throughout his coaching tenure not to misquote @binman but it's #demonlandmyths that he's doesn't have any 'coaching nuance'

nicholls has never forgiven max for "that's ruck craft, big boi" awful maggot

good contest i'd say tough footy

kornes was harping on about melbourne helping a fellow contender, maintaining that we should've continued to play grundy in the vfl and just use him when we needed to give gawn a chop out he really is a moron

because it didn't hurt to try; it was an experiment that didn't work we paid little for him, we got little for him

interesting that they're now saying 'long term' when originally they were expecting it might be a shorter term agreement you'd expect he's their next skipper

only seen footy from the 80s onwards, but i'll go with max gawn - premiership skipper and the greatest ruckman of all time

no such thing the bears just feasted upon the rotten corpse of ol' fitzroy and stole their nickname

the problem with gawn and grundy being in the same side is that meant the game's greatest ruckman was half the player he normally is why would you waste a true great of the game by having him away from his prime position during his peak period as a player?

Naughton in all sorts

teakle has no 'engine'

he and gus are senior list players who are unavailable it's a real shame

you're probably correct, but we signed ben brown instead

Well in 2022-23 we were flying along nicely at this time of the year before injuries and poor goalkicking cost us We are still four months away from the business end of the year

yep he's too good to be playing vfl it can be the reverse grundy

just as well it's only may, eh let's see how we're going in september
