The very first centre bounce of the GF Stef blocked Gawn who threw his arms out as if to say WTF?

Smith actually was stationary and Weightman made the slightest of contact with him. Appalling free

“Sound the Alarm” The Goody Mic'd Up Documentary
Based on limited information shown it seems there were vast difference in coaching styles Goodwin, tactical, well drilled, encouraging, reinforcing, calming and confident. Everything was about structures, discipline, energy and going back to what they had learned and what they knew had worked so well for them Bevo seems much less so of that and more emotional, John Northey style, encouragement. Less about structures and more about 'throw the ball around', 'take some uncontested marks' type instructions. Interesting too the complete confidence that Goodwin had in his team in the box to analyse and recommend tactical moves. As one who wasn't a Goodwin fan early on it shows a remarkable trusting management style that appears gets the best out of all the assistants

Training Ground?
Spoke to a few club people about this. We need to bide our time. Its all happening behind the scenes but the club can't say anything lest they upset one of the 20 or so stakeholders. Part of the problem is that there are so many fingers in the pie with regard to getting sign off. Melbourne Parks Trust, Olympics Park Trust, the City of melbourne, the State government, the Tennis Centre trust etc etc. There are 3 separate Ministers that have to sign off any proposal and given its location there are no votes in this at all for the Govt. We have all heard it before but I am comfortable giant strides have been taken towards a solution.

A 24th Round instead of Practice Matches?
Given the Top 8 statistically doesn't change much after about round 8 or 9 surely this is just another money grab?

POSTGAME: Community Series vs Carlton
We have thankfully moved beyond the 'how many stats did such and such have' Thats why we are a good team Having sat in the coaches pre-briefings before I can tell you first hand they don't give a tinkers cuss about how many stats you have. They want pressure, team acts, leading to space, spreading a defence, being accountable for your man etc etc most of which you don't get any statistics for. Its on;y because we now do team things that we have improved out of sight. A focus on personal stats just shows people don't really understand how good teams operate.

Our backline wasn't in trouble up to 20 last year when he got injured. Swing and a miss from you

Good to hear the players and club owning it, learning from it and hopefully moving on regardless of how cooked it was on the night

Vale Shane Warne
A true original that wasn't afraid to be himself. An old fashioned larrikan. That's a character that seems to have disappeared.

Smith is not the answer. His lack of footy nous costs us more often than not

They didn't umpire it that way in the North game Typical AFL to stuff something like this up.

MFC AGM
Thats not right. We do that at our company with shareholders who submit questions. You can choose to make the questions public or keep them private. In our case they are kept private. The moderators simply selects the ones they want to answer and ignores ones they don't

MFC AGM
You get written questions that are submitted and not made public The moderator then chooses which questions to answer to give the veneer of an open and transparent process. The current Board have proven very poor with transparency
