WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - BEN BROWN
If high scoring becomes fashionable again he will be a super weapon.

It only took rookie coach Rhyce Neeld...um Shaw one season to ruin his career.

Nathan Jones in 2021?
You hit the nail on the head. Look at Viney Brayshaw and Harmes. All momentum killers. Some say let him stay on till 300 games for the sake of the culture. But it is a fact that the culture has been the worst in the comp for a long time and his leadership hasn’t helped. Vastly over rated player.

Inappropriate Touching
Now I know why Hunt is such an accurate and composed goal kicker. He practises hard to get on target. And CP5 has also improved markedly in finding the goals.

Time to have a talk about Jayden
The only accomplished goal kicker in the side for both set shot and open play. Like to see him get more of the ball. I don’t believe the club managed him well after that horrible hit a few years ago against Adelaide that sent him in limbo. Looks like he’s starting to settle back again.

GAMEDAY: Rd 18 vs Essendon
Today is like watching half a game for me with the other half played tomorrow. Even if we win well it’s like half time scores level with 4 injuries on the bench. The dogs don’t seem like a club that would let a finals opportunity slip by. Freo though currently in good form have been fickle for many years. It will be a nerve racking wait.

Sack León Cameron.

Nathan Jones in 2021?
Jones was a good 200 game player who’s played on far too long. I would seriously consider ditching my membership if he gets another contract. It will prove to me that this is a recidivist old boys club not fair dinkum about moving on from a very mediocre decade and remains a lost cause.

Mumford Fined For Punching Gawn
The incident didn’t seem to worry Max too much. He and Mummy had an amiable chat after the game. The main reason why these incidents continue is that the AFL continue to let them happen. It only takes an unlucky blow to cause permanent brain damage. I imagine things will change when the next John Greening like incident happens and the law gets involved.

Beware the Demons in the Ex-Captain Closet
Flower also retired as our leading goal kicker in 1987 but he knew it was time.

Yes I hate Gary Buckenara
And we were 22 point pts up at 3/4 time. Typical Melbourne choke.

Brayshaw Out for Rest of 2020
The dreaded MFC foot injury. Career over.

Jesse Hogan on the way out at Freo?
Has steak knives value but buyer beware they might be blunt.

Quinton Narkle
Worth a go but Brian Taylor has put me off with his “sparkle Narkle” crap everytime time he’s near the ball.
