FC Melbourne

Memories of a young fella arriving at VFL park early with the old man to watch the twos in what must have been the early 80's. We were VFL members in those days and dad picked some prime seats about 4 rows in front of the Melbourne coaches box. After about 5 minutes the glass slides open. Seems the runner hasn't got back to the dug out and Slug needs a message sent to a player on the near wing asap. Slug lets rip with both barrels on the player from the comfort of the box with total disregard who might be listening. Old man still laughs at the tale. Magic.

After 2012 I fear nothing.

Maybe a player that can get first dibs on the ball could feed it out to an outside runner?

Hasn't touched the ball. Great sub.............Jeeeezzzuuusssss

He's had 14. Carry on.

Yeah nah.

Players play. Coaches coach. Adminsitrators administor. Learn it, live it. We should change the 12 stars on the back of the jumper to 186 as a perpetual reminder of what happens when it is forgotten.

Twitter saying Goldie had 64 hit outs!

Was fit last week. Carry over round 1 suspension.

Disagree with OP. Went absolutely ape poo in the last 1/4 with at least a couple of efforts where he needed to come hard at the ball but either stayed down or tried to duck out the back. Almost as timid as Watt's in a pack situation deep forward.

Mother knows, father thinks...........

Back on topic, could Blease play that role?

Like the Linsay Gaze line around if you're under 6"4 you have 5 minutes to convince him you can play. If your over 6"4, you have 5 years.

From some Hun jour no on twitter “@SammyHeraldSun: Mark Neeld met the #Demons players for the 1st time today. Some words the players used: "scary", "intimidating", "knows what he wants" #afl”

Those that question Craig's record in September as a senior coach have a point. However, they may wish to look at his role in the back to back flags under Blight.

Wow. Lyon / Schwab just hit one out of the park!

Slightly off topic, but...... Did anyone else notice the rash developing on his forehead in the presser. Stress may be turning into a Woogie.

That you be handy for you if we landed Lyon. You could cut and paste 80% of your 2011 posts in 2012

Ha ha ha. Will his mum and dad go out and toss the coin with him if he's made captain? This is going beyond high farce.

Or this shot in the age. The phrase "dogs balls" comes to mind.

Gossip girl! Normally a fan of Wilson but this was a very poor article.

Someone on BF is saying it's Nestle.

Vent bro. We're all at an end.

No, it's the heart of the matter. Anyone hear Pickering talking about massive off field issues in the pre-game show? 10,9,8,7,6.... you guess the rest.
