Any word on Angus?
My mail is that Angus is going well. Would not have been right for a prelim, possibly not even a granny but tests have all gone well and he is definitely keen to play on. Playing lots of golf. Good news.

Non-MFC: Finals Week 03
Despicable umpiring in every final so far . At least 11 non-decisions against Collingwood in the final quarter alone Congrats Gil you have completely stuffed the comp. You can point to crowds as I am sure you would by die hard fans are over the umpire bias/incompetence and MRO

Every position is reviewed, from top to bottom along with players, game plan, strategies, list structure, salary cap. You name it. There probably isnt an organisation in the country that has more scrutiny than an AFL club.

Fairly obvious don't you think? They do one every year. Hardly likely to be public.

Campbell Brown calls the Melbourne Football Club "fragile"
This is how the media narrative works. And its not just footy. 1. John Ralph makes unsubstantiated anonymous comments from 'senior officials' at melbourne 2.Fox prints comments in their online story 3.55 different commentators who are looking for content write a story or make comments about Melbourne 'whinging', whining' their 'fragile state' etc 4. It is set in stone that Melbourne are weak mentally, are fragile etc [insert adjective] 5. Campbell Brown is a Richard 6. Media narrative created 7. Who cares

If you are expecting Jefferson to step up and address our fwd line issues you will be severely disappointed.

The Neal-Bullen non goal
You cant overturn a goal on that. Nothing definitive whatsoever. No umprire called it. The ARC made its own decision. Its garbage

Bowey is good but he stuffed up big time in key moments against Carlton. He wasn't alone. Why can't we find more decent kickers?

It isn't good for your sanity but being at the game I am flummoxed as to how we let it slip.

The Neal-Bullen non goal
none of the footage shown on the 7 telecast shows conclusively that it was touched. For them to overrule on that basis is unbelievable. Two games we have been dudded and 7 times Carlton have received the benefit of the review in the past 4 games. The AFL is corrupt to the core. Cripps didn't even have a concussion test until after the game. Nor did Weitering yet he was staggering around like a drunk

Farewell Brodie Grundy
You have to got to be kidding. I have now heard everything. He is what he is. Not what you or the club thinks he should be. How hard is that to comprehend?

Watching the replay the umpiring is disgusting. Williamson no 22 is so one sided it's embarrassing for the afl

Farewell Brodie Grundy
Grundy was dudded. He is what he is. Max can't play fwd because he can't kick for [censored]. Yet grundy was castigated because he can't take a contested mark. He would have been fired up to play Collingwood against their 2 rucks. And against carltons 2 rucks. Yet we went in with one injured ruck. Beggars belief We beat both Carlton and coll with 2 rucks in round 12 and 13.

I think this is a furphy. Its not talent There have been dozens of times we take the ball down the wing with 2 or 3 players open in the centre corridor. Our players don't even look there. There are clearly instructed to go down the line to a contest. I won't be convinced otherwise. Its infuriating Its the polar opposite of what we were doing in the pre season and early part of the season when we were the most accurate side in the comp. The other infuriating thing is speed. We consistently hold the ball up and wait for the players to get back. When we play on we are a much more damaging team. Jordon is among the worst but by no means alone. Again clearly to instruction.
