Demon Disciple

Unless he is hit lace out he is useless.

There’s no denying his ability, but imagine him in our forward line 😩. It would come out even faster than it does now. Rachele = 0 forward pressure.

They’re all culpable imo.

Here’s hoping it’s because they actually have something in the works, as opposed to the many before them who produced nothing. We the members are going to need to see real progress soon, or the board needs to fall on their sword (though I don’t want this Lawrence fella stepping in, as he has his own agenda too it seems).

I’m not Roffey’s biggest fan……..far from it (the fact we are no closer to finding a new home base is farcical, imo), however, I’m grateful she is not a noisy president that needs to give her 2c on all things football. Actions speak louder than words, unfortunately for Roffey & the board, there seem to be no actions to speak of.

Happy with that if we gets the same results (only not to back up after 5 days again)

Retired as a premiership player (rare), an MFC premiership player at that (even rarer)

Would love to know how Geelong could legitimately satisfy us in a deal for Clarry. There’s simply no way they could appease us.

Just goes to show how precious and fleeting life is, he woke up this morning and now never will again. The finality of it is just so sudden, heartbreaking and hard to comprehend.

Can he play forward?

For the surety of another 2 years until retirement, Max no doubt would’ve happily taken less for the betterment of the team and rewarding players deserving an improved contract (I’m meaning you Trent Rivers). It will also allow us to make a play for FA’s or take on some salary for better picks. There is literally no downside to this extension. Arguably our best skip since RDB, and even should Max never play another game, this financial security is just reward for our premiership captain.

Yeah that’s not gonna happen

I was commenting from the perspective that objective data is interpreted through what is ‘seen’ , as opposed to subjective which is ‘said’. Unfortunately it’s hard to convey sarcasm over a forum.

Damn objective data, there’s no room for argument when it enters the fray.

Media won’t focus on this though, as it doesn’t align with their ‘pile it on the Dees’ mantra atm.

I’m sorry, but with the video on MFC.com.au where ANB says it was a tough decision to make, it sounds as if it’s all a fait accompli and he’s simply going to a SA club. Both Port & Crows know that they won’t have to offer adequate compensation, given we seek to have a net trade gain, and will use the ‘family reasons’ as a source to lower his value. However, given his importance to the club in the defensive role he plays, we should not be parting ways with him unless it’s to our benefit (he does have another couple of years contract with us after all). We are currently at a cross roads with where we’re at as a team and need to be ruthless in our pursuit to get back up the ladder. If that means holding Nibbler to his contract, so be it. Im tired of us being nice guys and easy to deal with at the trade table.

We seem to be rewriting the “what not to do” rule book. Talk about imploding

Watch the AFL do us for tanking again

Looks like re-build will be in full swing whether the footy department like it or not. What was all that cr@p jotted out after 2021 about not becoming complacent from the coach, ceo & pres? Thats aged really well. 2022-2024 May as well be titled ‘What not to do: 101’

Not to mention it would p!§§ off a lot of supporters, me included. You don’t trade the heart and soul of your club.

I'd be trading all of Sparrow, Spargo and Chandler before letting Fritsch go. He kicks more goals than all combined. All 4 dont get much of the ball, so keep the one with the most bang for buck.

Yeah I’d only do that trade if Georgiades came with him too.

Love that he goes out as a one-club player. Love even more that he keeps to himself and doesn’t voice his opinion on any little matter (cough***** Dangerfield ******* cough)

No no no no no. The top 8 should stay the way it is. With a 19th team coming soon enough, it makes qualifying for finals all the more of an achievement, as opposed to half the teams making them. Finals should be for good teams playing in good matches, not ones just making up the numbers.
