  1. Why would yo suggest the AFL own either the copyright or trademark to a business it doesnt own. It only licences the team ( MFC ) to compete in the competition
  2. Foot gun shoot !!
  3. As such youre right...but there is a caveat as mentioned by another and thats development. We arent going to play in september. We are building a team and in that process we need to get players playing with each other and on the big stage. Bailey will want to see how various combinations gel and I would be rather surprised if Maric didnt get a few games before the end of this season.
  4. Then he must be getting very close indeed
  5. That's a pretty good summation by plough. I totally agree about Grimes and see him as the future general down the half back. We have a good stock of mids and suspect unlike a lot of clubs this eos we will be looking to fill particular positions via draft or trade . Many other teams will be shopping to rebuild across many more requirements.Time will tell but a rtr Chf would be nice
  6. Essentially agree . One might make an argument for Sylvia when on song . Jones might get better in the tagging role otherwise turn them over asap and bring in better decision makers who can use the ball properly.
  7. The best defence is attack and that ought to have been the mindset. We went out expecting to get drubbed early...and guess what !!!!!!!!!... we setup for defeat and attained it.
  8. hes only just starting to feel like he belongs out there and that its his natural place of work. Lacks the polish of the finish but that too will come . Hes a way off yet .....but getting there
  9. came agonisingly close there for a minute...lol
  10. This Aug 21 ....VOTE NO to Catch Up Footy !!
  11. will just sum up MFC > lacks any consistency !!
  12. If i didnt know beter Id say it was tanking 2010 syle...bt of course thats absurd... its simply a shite performance by many who ought tobe ashamed to today..bloody ashamed. Whilst the coach cant go out and play he needs to give many a might big razz and do some serious reshuffling and dropping of supposed players to remind them why they are wearing that jumper just not good enough
  13. Keep in mind today's / tomorrows kid members wiil one day be adults with adult revenue !!! I feel sorry for north to a degree, they're stuffed. Am truly amazed and pleased to see we are within a bulls roar of the likes of the Toiges Saints and is not unrealistic that in 5-6 years, with success on field we can rival Carlton etc well done to the club and fellow supporters
  14. Didnt see the Trengove ommission coming and so it makes the others inclusion quite interesting. Am a little surprised ( and yet ) not that much with Juniors non inclusion after his naming for a return. Bail deserves his recall and am curious as to who will actually takek to the fileld Sunday. I doubt it Tarrant will actually line up as I m inclined to think theyd rest him another week much like us and Junior. Whilst I dont think for a moment the dockers will take us for granted or too likely they ought to win at home and might want Tarant fresher for next week against the Doggies. Still ..are just my thoughts.
  15. Mrs Malaprop anyone ?
  16. did this ages ago... some may remember..if not..!! lol
  17. Meter Maids ???
  18. The more I think on this the more it's about time and timeliness. Am thinking we have sufficient time before a real tilt to bring one of our own on. Next draft and trade could be interesting but stillfeel club is looking forward and not to the now.
  19. Hes not a bad mark actually ( and overhead )... reasonably clean hands. He would be a real handful once he settles down and bulks up
  20. Im pretty sure Jack was taken by the Dees with Rucking prospects...but one who was amazing agile for his size and could play around teh ground a bit. hes one of those rare talls that can actually rove his own work.. a bit of a nightmare for oppositions.. Yes he's raw but he can ruck even if hes not at the top of that game yet..he can. He has a head for where to beand what to do.. just sometimes the execution is the undoing, but that CAN be worked on and you would expec with time and match experience he will mature and come good. He has speed ( in spades ) making him lethal down the forward line...but again, his kicking proess needs work. He a young kid ( bloody big one..lol ) got all the right attitude and works on his game...he'll be a cracker this one give him a bit of slack... hes just startiing out and already showing a bit in the magoos. what more do you expect at this time ?
  21. Welll... you can improve your kicking... but you either have a footy brain or you dont and he does. Jamar, Gawn and Fitzy...three legs of our rucking stool.... thats one bloody big stool !!!! :lol::lol:
  22. Internet helps sell AFL in China Chinese AFL site Well I thought id throw this up. I realise not all particularly care but as we ( MFC ) have been on this Chinese adventure for some time Its interesting to see where its going. Nice to see our Colours and sponsor well represented. I dont speak or read either dialect so hav eno real idea whats going on with this site other than it appears theres a big emphasis on the 'social networking" side of things with all the popular portals there. Other sections doa bit of "Footy for Dummies" in an attempt to explain the play of the game and some of the associated skills. I might message the club and see if even a one page mini-site couldnt be cobbled ( in Chinese on the MFC website) to explain the history of the MFC etc. ( It could be there..lol..but I couldnt find anything. Many think this exercise is just a waste of time and money...but I say just as they sought to expand their markets so should we...and theres a few of them !!
  23. just byway of curiosity werent Cam and Jeff god mates....both keen golfers ??
  24. Apparently Buckheimer's bought the rights; stay tuned for DGS ( demons gone sick) Actually sort of interesting .... just a bit tedious hey
  25. Why ? For what benefit ? I think not
