Thanks for reminding me of that RM... I already owned the full app on iPad and had forgotten about installing it on my new iPhone... done! I will miss the first half of the Norf Mebn game due to my young son having training with the Newtown Swans until 7pm - and then it's a few minutes drive home; plenty of replays on Foxtel afterwards, but if I can't hear or see it live, then I feel that I have no influence on the outcome.

Is it the SEN coverage that is streamed as live audio via the "AFL 2013" iPhone/android app?

I haven't noticed this raised in any of the multitude of threads, but the most disheartening thing about McLean's appearance on OTC is that if Nathan Jones hadn't withdrawn from a guest spot on the show, McLean wouldn't have been on and this whole charade might never have taken off. (according to Jake Nial's article the other day: http://www.smh.com.au/afl/afl-news/the-goal-that-undid-the-dees-20130220-2ero3.html). Oh the pain!

Sorry, but I couldn't resist simply because I like this toon (but I would be happy for us to take LeCras and Thomas):

"Quietly"??!! I would expect a very public apology, and not only from the AFL.

And a NAB Cup final win would net us $200k+ as well as possibly get us an extra 1,000 to 2,000 members... you do the maths ;-)

Yes, saw your tweet response... well done

Well Satyriconathome, I would say it is more satire than humour and it is all relative as to how successful it is... particularly if you compare it to postings on the issue by the likes of Range Rover, Dr Who (more so on Demonology) and to a "lesser" extent, Ben Hur and others here, then perhaps it isn't up there with the best (but the seriousness of their posts precludes them)... but I see absolutely nothing wrong with a little levity in the face of what have obviously trying times for the club.

Or Sylvia... he and Brock were always paired like Bruce and Green and to a lesser extent Trengove and Scully.

Not singling you out Ralphus as I noticed more than one response like this and some "Likes", but I have to ask... was LivingSocial.com.au running a group special on humour bypasses this week?

I thought that joke was majak.

Maybe she's preparing her defence in the possible event of legal action being taken by CS?

It would have the added benefit of adding a significant number of new members, which increases our means of servicing that debt.

I believe there is still a monetary prize (but don't know how much). In 2010, the winner got $180k and the runner up $120k.

Beg to differ... with a $500k fine hanging over the MFC, suddenly the NAB cup takes on a whole new level of importance.

NAB Cup Squad for the round named: ROUND 1 NAB CUP SQUAD 1 Jesse Hogan 2 Nathan Jones 4 Jack Watts 5 Jimmy Toumpas 6 Chris Dawes 7 Jack Viney 8 James Frawley 10 Shannon Byrnes 12 Colin Sylvia 13 Jordie McKenzie 14 Lynden Dunn 15 David Rodan 17 Sam Blease 19 James Strauss 20 Colin Garland 21 Cameron Pedersen 22 James Magner 25 Tom McDonald 26 Daniel Nicholson 27 Tom Gillies 28 Joel Macdonald 30 James Sellar 31 Jack Grimes 32 Michael Evans 34 Dean Kent 36 Aaron Davey 38 Jeremy Howe 39 Neville Jetta 40 Mark Jamar 42 Jake Spencer 45 Matt Jones 46 Dean Terlich 47 Tom Couch 48 Jack Fitzpatrick

Quite possibly McLean, not good enough.

Welcome aboard! Is that a set of keys to "the vault"? (I don't recall getting a key ring with my membership this year).

In light of recent developments, no doubt the prize money would be an incentive for the club to take this competition seriously.

Therein lies the problem. Everyone HAS gone back to their knitting... and the MFC is Marie Antoinette.

Tweeted a while ago by MFC: "Rohan Bail has been removed from contact drills for 6 weeks after he twice suffered concussion within 10 days" ...but the good news is that he's already three weeks into the layoff. http://www.melbournefc.com.au/melbourne/news/2013-02-20/Bail-out-after-knocks+.workstation

I feel threatened by that joke.

In the words of the great Smokey Robinson... "the tears of a clown"

Why? For taking a bullet for the club?
