Bitter but optimistic

A family feud? Pecking order issue?

Actually I thought Jones played a reasonable game - until that shocker at the end.

Wadda, I reckon it was more of a Anus Horribilus !

MAX - You won't see a better game from a ruckman Fritsch - Permanently up forward next year Harmes - Plenty of it and showed a cool head for the most part. Oliver - Ball magnet as usual ( some questionable disposal though) Frost - Did the business on Ronald Mc Donald head. Petracca

Business as usual!!! FMD!!! Can we have - a kicking coach - a handballing coach - a tackling coach PS Umpiring was [censored] PPS Commentators were [censored] PPPS MAX WAS GREAT!!!

He'll be a former mate by this evening!

Fair point Neil.

You know Dr, I reckon it's now at the point where you have to be a lunatic to support Melbourne.

Don't want to restrict myself buck but, one thing's for sure, I reckon it will be fairly early when I switch to shiraz.

There's certainly more going on at the club than we supporters are privy to. There are two ways to look at Richo's appointment. One. The "hierarchy" sees Goody as simply needing help in what is a very complex job. Two. The "hierarchy" has lost confidence in Goody.

Haha, you might be on the money bb but I'm hoping to last for a few stubbies at least.

I have no enthusiasm for game. I will watch it until it becomes obvious either we will get a jolly good flogging or Ronald McDonald head just pisses me off.

Not much.

PROLOGUE : My tank of optimism is devoid of even of fumes. My cup of bitterness is overflowing. POST : If we have another shizen year does this mean that Richo will be caretaker coach about round 16? .

Agreed

We might as well resurrect Shannon Byrnes also.

Correct Maze - this very thought has concerned me for some time. We didn't just "enjoy a little nap" we clearly went backwards this season. With the exception of GC everyone else appears to have moved forward. We have a lot of catching up to do!

Roughy is champ - no doubt about He’s also been through some tough personal [censored]. So apart from knowing a bit about footy he also knows a bit about resilience Bonus. He seems to be a decent bloke Yep. I’d have him as a forward line coach in a flash!

Yeah if Goodwin didn’t have such a long contract the blowtorch would be blistering his balls about now!

We can all make up our own mind Saty. However, if SWYL wants to suggest a form of protest then he is entitled to do so.

An article in today's Age on the North Melbourne win and Brown's bag of goals states " North's final round opposition comes in the form of pitiful Melbourne. The medal is Brown's to lose" I just hope we pick a side that is passionate enough to show some fight and pride and provide some glimmer of hope for we long suffering supporters.

Very incisive Ethan. I did consider becoming a more morally upright type - but nothing came of it

Yes I'll renew. I can be OCD about things and figure if I change a habit then disaster will follow. Anyway I plan to garnishee the maid's meagre illegal under award salary so no harm done.

Nothing to see here! This [censored] happens in sporting teams - things get intense. Add frustration at our [censored] of a season and issues bubble up. FMD, didn't Viney and Tmac have a scuffle at training a few years ago?

Yes on the proviso that his missus comes with him. She'd be a handy pick up for the shiella's side.
