Farewell Sam Frost
So Frost is a turnover merchant. Sadly we have a conga line of the same led by our hopeless captains. At least he has some upsides that can be worked on. Turnovers are a team disease caused by lack of confidence and inane leadership.

Willie Rioli Suspended for 2 years
Well the NFL cannot function without artificial enhancement. Those freaks that play American team sports are not regular humans.

Farewell Sam Frost
Kelvin Templeton and Mitch Clark to name a couple more. Peter Moore gave us the the aura of success like of a gilded pig in a pig sty.

Farewell Sam Frost
If the Hawks rate him then he must have some value that they can exploit that we miss and some on here don’t wont to respect. Those that way overate the likes of Jones and Viney more like it.

Willie Rioli Suspended for 2 years
I think it was his brother Fly’n Ryan who took that mark.

What diabolical price will we have to pay? Collingwood always try to bleed us dry and leave the leeches on just in case there is a little more blood left.

Todd Viney Leaving Confirmed
Well that increases the chances of Junior leaving for “family reasons”.

Farewell Sam Frost
Sadly that puts him on a par with the rest of our forwards.

Premiership Clock
Currently broken. The hands are missing, the springs are loose, the cogs are worn, the glass is cracked and the battery is flat. The alarm still works. If it can be fixed who knows?

Finals Week 1
The pies unlike us have shown they can be decimated by injuries and still play good footy. They are a switched on “one for all and all for one” side and not one led by two headless chooks.

- Jones should relinquish captaincy now - Tex did.
Tex is dynamic but too hot headed and selfish to be a measured leader. Jones plays in his own bubble. Both never developed as effective leaders and in the job too long.- Todd Viney Leaving Confirmed
I have always thought something odd has been happening with the MFC even since Roos came in. Though we improved under Roos from a very low bar it still was modest improvement with some inexplicably bad performances and woeful player language at key moments during his tenure. Very little cultural change was evident. The capitulation against Geelong in Roos final game was very telling too me. A profound slap in the face if there ever was one. Goodwin now seems to be getting some of the same. The players just don’t give a faaark and there still appears a disconnect between players and officialdom. The current movement of key personnel and Goodwin’s fragility ATM makes me believe many outstanding issues from the Schwab days had been swept under the carpet and not addressed properly. Why did PJ resign prematurely? Whether the changes are ruthless enough to work out or not remains to be seen.- Todd Viney Leaving Confirmed
Will you seek to replace your winder? I can recommend a good repairer.- Todd Viney Leaving Confirmed
Will his son follow him?- Finals Week 1
Er...Jones?- Jones should relinquish captaincy now - Tex did.
Not the brand that the clubs presents but the brand the club is delivering.- Jones should relinquish captaincy now - Tex did.
Jones stepping down from captain cannot come soon enough. He has been a momentum killer for near a decade. I have been very critical of his style of play and leadership since the Neeld days. Appears to play a very self satisfied game that does not care if we win or lose just as long as he gets his 20 odd possessions and a goal or two.- Jones Re-Signs for 2020
Can’t think of many critical comments for others than for him and occasionally Viney. Last player I was very critical of was Hogan. I am generally quite positive with the rest of the list. Those two deserve criticism because they are leaders who don’t lead especially Jones. If you could be bothered, feel welcome to trawl through my history and be proved wrong.- Jones Re-Signs for 2020
Not just round 23. He has been missing in most of all the last quarters this season.- Jones Re-Signs for 2020
Jones in the trenches? The epitome of losers mentality. The record speaks for itself. In all our last quarter capitulations this season he’s the first to go MIA.- Trade Jack Viney Thread
What do we with his old man then? The Brexit Irish Backstop for Northern Ireland would be easier to sort out. - Jones should relinquish captaincy now - Tex did.
