Spot on Dr. I lost my daughter to the Bombers 30 years ago for exactly the same reasons.

Yep we we will win 14 games and finish 8th but sadly get beaten in the second week of the finals, 2019 is our big year.

I did get a better deal than the other dealer I went to during the process. Was it better than I could have extracted by just driving a hard bargain? Good question Not sure however I have had a good relationship with their service department since. Conclusion I suspect I got the same deal a non MFC member driving a hard deal would have got but they knew I was an MFC member and that may have benefited the club. If the club had a sponsorship deal with another car supplier I would go out of my way to get a price however I would need to be interested in the vehicles they were selling. PS I recently used "I select" to change my car insurance.

My last car was bought from an AHG dealership. I went there on the basis they were a MFC sponsor when there were closer dealerships available. But I do agree with your view. I am in the market again but this time I will look closer to home.

Anything is possible LH just look at the last two years. It is just what will make me happy. I just need to go to games believing we have a very good chance of winning and then doing it the most weeks. I just want to walk away from games proudly displaying my MFC allegiance. If something better happened then I will be very happy but I dont need it like I did 20 years ago. What I really really need is for my Grand Daughters to grow up in a safe world.

My reward is a power team that wins 80% of it's games and plays finals every year. Winning a GF is beyond my expectations now.

There is no such thing as "Too Many"

The 2019 draw will not be out for some time yet DF.

I hope they are not on the same schedule as they MFC.

I thought in a deceit society there are no rules?

"Elderly" Ernest. Now be carefully you must be the oldest on here by a long shot!

You are not alone Ernest just the day for one!

100% agreement rpfc.

You are safe in 2018 Barney. However you will miss a good first finals round win.

I might add RG we not only lost them we were trashed in the majority. I went to many that the only thing up for decision was the size of the loss many many games were well over at quarter time. I hate that time more than any other in the last 54 years and there have been some poor ones in that time. Just win bloody games

Finally a man after my own heart. just win I don't care what we are wearing.

I am a simple soul Mr. Leg Witness the fact I am a MFC member.

Falling at the last hurdle?

The team would be aiming to win the flag DF. However I am telling you how it will play out. This group is still short, 7th or 8th. in 2018 Have I led you astray in the past?

There are a lot of wet behind the ears kids in our best 25. they still need a couple of years to mature and give match winning performances 80% of the time. I am assuming of course that they all well most of them continue to improve. I also think we are still a couple short of a top four side. My prediction in 2018 is eighth and if injuries go our way perhaps seventh leading to a win in our first final.

You are not alone puntkick. However in 2018 I expect to make the finals noting less will suffice.

I hope you are right.

Yes but only does it four times a season so far.

Hmm that is a big call MGDW. Not sure I share your enthusiasm, he will need a lot more consistence in 2018 and beyond as just the first step.
