Oh no is a 12 goal lead enough I am very worried.

3 goals 5 you have to be kidding. They could not kick themselves out of a wet paper bag!

A win tomorrow tells us nothing. I have been reluctant to shift SG at the end the season purely on the basis of the cost. However after watching his comments about the good things in the last 4 minutes I am now firmly in the " it's time Simon". Honestly how can he even think that let alone say it. Please remove him, take the money out of the Caulfield fund. We won't need that any time soon. To not remove him at seasons end means more of this year till somewhere around June next year when it cannot continue any longer and another year is lost like this year and 2024.

Interesting that there is only 3 replies to this next game thread. After last nights team selection it is easy to see why.

I would love to be able to find out.

I wonder what has to happen before the FD realise they keep putting a poor side on the field week in week out. After playing the poorest last quarter in the history of the AFL they make 2 changes. One of which is Sharp who has proved at 2 clubs that he is not up playing at senior level. Good delivers us.

The Dees by 46 points! You must be the most positive supporter by the length of the Flemington straight. I think the Eagles are a real chance to record their second win of the 2025 season. After last week's debacle I saw a lot of hang dog looks after the game. No anger / frustration. They have lost the desire in 2025. Eagles by 13 points. All they have to do is turn up and play with desire That will be too much for the MFC.

I have a couple of member friends who never get them 74. Inspire of contact to ask why they are not on the list. I often wonder if the results see the light of day to those running the club.

It says a lot Wrecker!

I am like you LDC, very happy that no one who likes that music leaves me off the list. I would happily support you but sadly I am not a MCC member. I do however complain about it on every footy survey. Result zero. I think there is more chance the Dees will win the next four games than the music being removed.

I agree with LDC we are there for a football game not a heavy metal concert.

You have my vote.

I agree QD but that is fairly difficult when he is living in Europe.

A fellow Melbourne supporter made an Interesting comment to me yesterday. He said JVR is actually a better 2nd ruckman than he is as a KPF. My friends suggestion was that jvr is actually a Ruckman / forward not a KPF.

Let's hope they pick a few so we can see if they improve the team. What this season has shown is that we are sadly lacking in player quality once we get past the first dozen players.

All good points BDA. I don't want to pot the women who play AFL. It is the way the AFL runs this competition that annoys me. However it should not be part of this discussion. Point taken.

There is a constant theme here from Binman and a couple of others. Governance! We have spent the most part of the last year without a CEO and a stand in President waiting on an ageing replacement who has been on holidays for 6 months. I don't care what the organisation that does not boad well for achieving a well run organisation. Most things will have been on hold for nearly a year. The new CEO is not expected to be on deck till October. Surprise surprise we have had a terrible year. How many decisions will have to wait till November or later. If this is not a big part of our onfield results I would be amazed.

DubDee. It doesn't worry me how much women want to play football, I don't mind how much they play. What annoys is the amount the AFL is throwing at it. On top they are expanding it too fast the skill pool is stretched way beyond what will give games to watch. we have games with low skill levels that turn into defensive struggles with low scoring. Just develop it at a slower pace then the games might become watchable.

You are not alone Pates.

Yes. Sorry bing. Women.

Pf you need to add using JVR as a second ruckman is destroying his development. He has gone backwards since his first year.

Ok I have it now. The girls competition is a joke. The money the AFL is wasting on it is beyond scandalous. Their usual virtue signalling.

Kentfield come on down!

Sorry to ask this 48 but what is the statement “success for the women’s team to appease the AFL” mean?

Sadly I was a lot older Wrecker!
