It’s all about TV bd. Attendance at both games runs a bad second with both codes.

My daughter and wife decided to have a brunch get together so I could go to the footy. We had a nice time and I left to go to the footy a little later than I would normally. Arrived at Sunbury line to discover no trains. So decided to drive to the Broady line even if I arrived after the start of the game. Mother's Day traffic was heavy. Arrived at Glenbervie to see the train leave the station. Next train in 20 minutes. By my calculations that would have got me to game well into the second quarter. At this point I admitted defeat and return home. Family was there so we continued mother's Day. Why does the MFC always seem to get these games on mother's Day? Oh well replay tonight will have to do.

Very well said NC. I see lots of people who have passions in there lives that exclude almost everything else in there lives. Like you I am a passionate Dee's fan but not to exclusion of those in my life. Sometimes the MFC comes second.

There is one simple fact at North they don't have the cattle. I went to the first game of the year against the Hawks. They lead that game for more than half the game. The Difference they had no forward to take a big grab. The Hawks did. They would have won the game with Brown at full forward. A fact that was not lost on my North mate.

Interesting kicking two goals in a grand final after 54 years makes Tom an all time great for the MFC. The fact one of them was after the siren when we were well ahead is not recorded in the score line specs.

And he did.

Nothing surprising in the changes. A good side to front up on Sunday.

We all have options I don't agree with yours. After six year Weideman is average and don't see him getting any better. IMO we are playing him for to him to prove his worth.

I don't he carried the ruck a few seasons ago when Gawn was out for weeks. And we won a large number of the games. The weid is very average at all positions he is used in. Add Tmac can play in defence and at a pinch on the wing.

Correct I did not see anyone suggesting our game should be postponed.

It won’t be the first time Bbo.

Weid ain't good enough.

No he is a far better option than the Weid. The Weid can do one thing reasonably on his good days.

I will take this version Ernest.

No need to apologise Ernest I thought you were on the money. I have the same problem next Sunday. Still have my fishing rods. Following game is interstate and the next one is probably a night game. Best team in 54 years and I cannot get to a game.

Agree 100% your last sentence says it all.

They are paying for 9/10 of nothing this year Bbo.

Good to see you on full voice Ernest. I think the basic problem comes back to too many media with too much space to fill. So the mundane becomes a major story. All these commentators fighting to be noticed to maintain their jobs.

Well after all this time you would think the answer is there is no suitable spot. We have hitched ourselves to the almost unachievable. That may be the bigger problem.

After 5 years due process is very slow to the point of dead stop. I get the feeling the club is now hiding behind winning a flag. Talk about the premiership and we will forget about the new home

We have heard that from numerous GM,s and Presidents for 5 years LN. What is the hold up?

We are all soon or later coming to this view LN. Keep us hanging for long enough and all of a sudden Casey looks a lot better.

Will they still be in power in 2023?

But that does not fit the club's stated preference. Why is that after 5 years and 2 presidents do we still have no stated plan. We are clearly not going to get any money from this government and it is hard to see much happening before 2023 even if their is a change of government. Just tell us what the problem is.
