Just thought some of you would find this interesting/amusing. I live amongst a lot of Filth, no not squalor , just those colour challenged type. Wife is, her whole family (catholic) are. A bro in law commented over weekend. " hey , your lot starting to look like you might play some decent footy, our QB bet mightn't be a given next year !" Others are noticing !!!- The No T$ No B$ Thread
What I think will be interesting is how all of this, our trades and drafting will be viewed and adjudged by those doyens of all things footy...the media. Not that I really care (for them) but given the persistent kickings and derision handed out over recent months I wonder who, or indeed if any ,might change their tune (unheard of I know). The list is going to be oly passingly recognizable in some ways. The spine, well we'll have one , and not that shabby. A midfield whilst not a throbbing 351, certainly a decent engine capable of improvement. The team average for games experience will jump a bit and start to bring us into the realms of real competitiveness.. That "hardness" and ability to play the roes assigned and with some expectation of doing those competently augars well for the coming season. Often though the Smucks and buffoons parading as the 4th estate have seen fit to dispense with any fair and informed appraisal of the MFC but carry on some conspired agenda to undermine the club. Will they be able to ignore the truth now ? Probably, but I'd like to see at least one come out with a reasoned précis of where we will sit after all the papers are signed and names/numbers called. I wonder who will have the cohunes !- The No T$ No B$ Thread

Red, can't quite remember where he said it , might have been tucked away in Hogans pressed, but Neeld intimated bringing in a number of players resulting all up in a list change of around 11 or so. I don't think he's kidding when he says he'd take both DumbleDawes and Gumby. We have Byrnes, add (say one of to be conservative ) Dawes/Gumby, add a likely Pedersen and possible Ray. Hogan (2014 but he's here ) Viney, possible Wines. Still 2-3 to come. He's like a kid in a lolly shop lol- The No T$ No B$ Thread

We're on our way people's. The direction of choices so far taken both prior to the circus and now during it sown we've learnt,as a club,the mistakes not to repeat. We seem far more savvy, more attuned to what you need on a list to create a performing-winning team. We've made the wrong decisions at times in the past but worse repeated them. Our list is riddled with these errors. It won't be nearly so disadvantaged come the end of the draft. I'm sure I'm not the only one to observe we've turned a corner now. Kudos to the current regime. I'm not silly enough to think every pick and trade will be perfect but I sense the margin for error is greatly reduced . This is all the result of some serious soul searching at the MFC and some hard admissions of not only where we were but where we weren't !! There's been wholesale change..... At long last Often Ive gone into the new season hopeful and expectant. 2013 I'll be genuinely confident we can be actually competitive. Success will follow.- The No T$ No B$ Thread
