Absolutely. It's called being politically correct. There is no doubt Craig had a different take on things. Last night showed what a performance looks like if you have 22 blokes committed to even the most basic of game plans. Maybe Craig was thanking Neeld for his crap performance which lead to draft picks. Who knows.

Also, Jack was sublime as was the 21 other blokes and Craig. Jones' lace out pass to Watts just one if the highlights. McDonald's run from half back scratched the surface of the potential we have. Toumpas & Nicholson's dash had me excited once again for red & blue. And just on that, it was nice seeing the boys wearing their traditional uniform last night. The white gives me the $hits.

Just goes to show, Neeld had NFI!!! The modern day Robin Hood. If Neeld had integrity he'd decline substantial payout.

Totally agree. Pop the champagne I say. Can't we keep the constructive analysis until later this year at least?!?

I reckon he would thrive under Malthouse's no b/s system, but is still a one trick pony. Can't kick left; is devoid of all confidence in an ever changing game plan - clearly another victim. Next year he may improve under a new coach.

Reminds me of a young J Stynes. Has an edge. Mike Sheehan said on AW today he's one of the shining lights just after he had interviewed Neeld (which Neeld again underperformed in). Frawley looks like Tarzan plays like Jane. Should be a wrecking ball in defense instead appears to be treading water until contract time.

Add CS's continue reference to trying to establish a 'profit (business)model' for the footy club. CS a classic case of Captain Obvious who has run out of tricks / template moves. Surely any business is striving for a profitable return. Too much focus on periphery stuff like ruining our traditional jumper and overseeing the design of a complicated logo instead of building the 'business' for long term viability which isn't underpinned by supporter generosity IMO.

Gold!

I was watching Judd when we played Blues at the G a few weeks back and he seriously reminded me of a great white...wades into the fifty...everyone knows he is there and you know he is going to get the footy and do something damaging...no wonder Blues fans roll out the red carpet when he comes to the bench...

It's an interesting dynamic and tend to sit on the fence on this. Only thought would be to not make any assumptions until you see how Viney junior goes about it. Kamikaze in every respect. No issue of him earning his spot in our best 22 when his time comes no matter who the coach is. The kid has red & blue in his veins and his old boy I believe is the right fit for what MFC need now as head-coach. Let us cross that bridge in 2 years. Larger fish to fry currently.

T. Viney doesn't qualify for boys club as he is one of the few MEN at our club. I grew up watching the bloke and I'll be there Sunday wishing him all the best. Finally a pit-bull takes MFCs coaching reins. Non-negotiable no longer just a word.

Agree. You don't hear [censored] during game on Sat then gives blow by blow description of media conference. Also, thought marketing of club amateur hour re sponsors backdrop for when Jim & Don's spoke. Perfect time to have MFC logo emblazoned and then Dean having a blank wall behind look less than dignified for a bloke who I thought exited with some class. Although I didn't rate him as a coach, I thought he did exit the right way.

Interesting when Bailey was asked about what support he had from CEO & administration he referred back to feeling he had total support from players and coaches.

Agree. Quality posts of late RR.

Chalk and cheese Green's reaction to Trengrove's. Green laughed it off; Trengrove looked distraught. Looking forward to Grant Thomas' analysis on Footy Classified tomorrow night re addressing MFC's lack of leadership which is his hobbyhorse subject.
