  1. Whilst theres not much to argue in all of that, as its quite right, how much weight might anyone give the acrimony and animosity between the MCC and the AFL. The former certainly doesnt like being ridden roughshot by the Vlad and Clowns. The AFL would be cermonioulsy screwed if unable to utilise the MCG in a manner it wanted. Whilst the MCC wouldnt probably effect any favouritism for us theyd more than likely be at loggerheads with anyone who sought to unfairly disadvantage us ( mfc ) esp as we are part of the MCC The MCC is very much about tradition.
  2. to say nothng of putting a shot across Kennet's bow !!
  3. I suspect all this will accomplish is a bigger pay check for Clarkson from Hawthorn.. Hope Clarko buys Gazza a few beers !!
  4. Like ^ Lucky bugger.. But hey ..its really about Cadel. Fantastic effort and warmly deserved.
  5. "No one believes more firmly than Comrade Vladimir that all players are equal. He would be only too happy to let you make your decisions for yourselves. But sometimes you might make the wrong decisions, comrades, and then where should we be?"
  6. One mighty stoush is looming !!!!
  7. Strangely Vlads running with the notion that it's not just a case of it not being a conflict but that's it's actually IN the interest of the AFL and therefore all concerned ( after all Vlad knows best ) All hale Vlad , Vlad is good (god?) Big Brother-Vlad-Big Brother -Vlad , just can't tell them apart
  8. Having grown in or around Beauie in my teens + I was astounded and saddened to recently pass the old girl ( Beauie Pub) and see it dormant . The Pav group killed it off it seems . Once a vibrant venue ... Could be again
  9. i'll be quite happy if as good as any But I dont think we've even begun to see his star shine. When he can focus on footy and with a few more kilos ( more than the 7 he has apparently put on to date ) with more strength ,,he'll be just fine thankyou
  10. that might just be the most astute observation of your's here ever YM !!
  11. very much so.
  12. well....thats ...quite...remarkable...
  13. never so happy to be wrong !! :D
  14. Youre absolutely spot on Mickrocks..the Interest is a killer. Get rid of a lot of that and al lof a sudden even the same revenue stream gets much hightened results.
  15. I have nothing but a gut feeling.. but kept coming up with 1 and 3/4 ..for some reason.. Lets see how we go.. Its a very magnaminous gesture by so many. Thanks (as a common garden variety )
  16. Strange that anyone would work at that level where he could be out the door tomorrow with nothing !! Whether its true or not..I personally find it hard to swallow that there was no 'handshake" fee attached
  17. WJ..Ive finally a chance to sit down and have a look at the MFC site....where's this Plan outline ?? cheers
  18. ok...someone has to say it.. This is very one dimensional !! Many of us have come up with ideas that would not only facilitate greater donations..Arguablynot al lin a one hit block..but certainly able to do greater damage over a year. And be TAX DEDUCTABLE. Those that want to say Im just be negative.. go for it..all line up over here >>>>>>>>>>>> This is very gung ho and not too bright. I will be giving in other areas.Surely we have greater acumen at the club to come up with better ways than this. Sorry folks .very disaappointed if this is "The great plan !!"
  19. Is it just me .. when a player is having a crack form a pocket or futher out we were always told to have an "insurance' player in opposite pocket.. just in case kick carried or got a knock on that way.. We NEVER do this
  20. Junior ought to have had a ping too ( sorry Junior )
  21. now this is a great tactic by the way... when shooting for goal...from around 50...apparantly we all need to get out of the way.. on a number of occasions I think I counted 2 or 3 only Dees in forward 50 !! wtf is this about ????
  22. a novel idea to trial at training.... its new fan dangled.. its called SHEPHERDING !!!!!!
  23. we had skills today ??
  24. Im not sure if the game plan is this...but the game as played by Melbourne is a composite of Hot Potato - Hot Potato combined with a lot of Hospital Handpass. It seems we are very good at kicking to outnimbered contests, waitin gfar ttoo long to inbound a behind. We love to handpas til the opposition finally gets it. Our style is to watch the opposition but not harm them in any way. If there is a choice of actions...far better to wait and give off to no advantage ( much better than kicking ) or better still stand and wait til the bgall is taken off of you. It very important not to take tackling too seriously...only a tap and a nudge is required; no need to get fair dinkum. Yes we have depth problems.. scratch the surface and theres not much underneath !!
  25. well the pre requisite of putting more than 5 words together in anything other than a monotone may render this question moot !!
