That seems lost on a lot LH. Simple facts, the FD have had a lot of player changes over the last few years this their list. We have played finals once in the last four years and once in the last 13. The results stop at the FD door.

Besides media reports I have seen nothing officially from the club that it is even happening.

You are not alone, while we might differ on the quality of the list there is no doubt in my mind that the FD cost us finals this year. There performance in the first half of the year in particular was deplorable. Selection seemed be made with darts and a team list.

Works on my iPad thanks.

Sorry still no result.

He was a big supporter of Goodwin when he got the job and has over seen the operation for a decade. Like it or not he has not got us to being a regular finals team. In the end team results stop at his door.

I have a subscription and a) I cannot find it and b) that address will not load. Sorry

Excuse my ignorance but what is so special about Richardson? Does not seem to have set the world on fire anywhere he has been.

In past years there was a date in August that according to AFL rules off field staff had to be notified if there services were no longer required. God knows what the date was / is this year. But I suspect that the date has passed e.g all the North deletions. I also suspect that any coaches that are not required at the MFC would have been told by now they have just kept it in house.

That is possible, but one would assume that a review would be needed to be undertaken ASAP before drafting of players / coaches etc. the longer the time goes by without comment makes me suspicious.

There is still nothing official that I can find that there is a review going on. If such a thing is happening it is most certainly looking like an internal review and we know what happens with those most times. Two weeks ago I wrote to Mr. Pert ( not Pertie!!!) asking if there would be a Members review night this year, via Tracy I received a reply this morning saying there would be one but date unknown. Still no reply from our Chairman on the review! I wait in expectation. Ha ha!!!!!

It is early days right now but this kid looks the best of the three taken last year.

Not so sure about "very" LH

Clearly the Saints, they are playing in the second week of finals and we are not.

Surely not!!!!!!!!!!

Kent may well have been the most inconsistent player the dees have had in the last decade. 1 good game in 5 and the other 4 were crap or injured.

You have to be to follow the Dees.

So what is the problem!!!!!!!!!!!

We don't have the stomach or the direction for it at present. But the sadest part is the direction won't change.

The thing that really pisses me off is 2 of the teams that have won this weekend we beat convincingly and another we lost by a whisker.

Should have re read that before I pushed go. Engage brain before moving fingers.

When you follow an also ran club that just makes up the numbers it is usual to be interest in " can one of our players win the Charlie". About a decade ago I decided that not to have an interest on the basis of t is what club supporters like us do. So when we are finishing regularly in the top 4 I will get interested.

I have the same question BBo. The MFC that I know of have not even said one is under way. Everyone is going on an article from Jay Clark. Some extreme speculation on here and I suspect 90% of it has no foundation in fact. But I guess its finals time and as usual we are not involved and have nothing better to do than wild speculation.

Being glum had little to do with the MFC. But as you list there is still some justice in the world.

I woke this morning feeling a little glum chook but you and a couple of others have put a smile on my face.
